Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

As a placeholder between the full-length "Pretty Hate Machine" and "The Downward Spiral", Broken packs a serious punch. Angrier and less poppy than "Machine", this EP is full of noisy hooks, if such a thing is possible (check out that guitar riff on the full-throttle "Wish"), and much closer aesthetically to the industrial subgenre that informs Trent Reznor's music. As song titles like "Help Me I Am in Hell" suggest, Broken is a work of undiluted rage, which is, of course, a big part of its appeal. --Genevieve Williams

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome..., 25 Sep 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Broken EP (Audio CD)

I know a lot of people have been saying that this isn't one of the best Nine Inch Nails out there, but i'd beg to differ, i think it's one of my favourite albums, becuase every song is hard hitting and great. I think it's probably the heaviest album that Trent Reznor has created,a nd although he wanted to get away from the pop vibe, these songs are still very ctachy, althuoght definately more metal than others, and very different from Pretty Hate Machine.

You start of with Pinion which slowly reaches its climax before throwing you head first into Wish, a very fierce song, with a great guitar riff throughout. Without much time to think you are then given Last, another great song, with a great riff, and great chrorus. Help me I'm in Hell is a very eerie song, you'll understand the name after you've heard it, and then you're thrown into Happiness In Slavery, this is a very hard hitting song, with a great beat underneatch all the industrious sounds. Then theres Gave Up, this is a really good song, it has alot of great sounds incorporated into it, with Reznors biting vocals over the top. We then gett o the bonus tracks, and although this can be annoying to fast forward all the way to 98, theyre definately worth it...Physical and Suck are two of my favourites on the cd theyre awesome. I definately reccommend this cd, and it's a must have if you're collecting all the cds.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now That's What I Call Industrial Pt. 667, 23 Oct 2003

bjr19 "somekindofmonster" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Broken EP (Audio CD)

The best Nine Inch Nails release, bar none. Crushing brutality meets pure melody...listen to Trent's magnum opus and pledge your allegiance. None more black (of heart).

PS Remember not to press 'Random Play'...you'll regret it...

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential NIN - one of the best industrial metal EPs ever, 7 April 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Broken EP (Audio CD)

Intense, heavy, and definitely one of the best things NIN have done. More akin to "Pretty Hate Machine" than the more recent "Downward Spiral" or "The Fragile", this is the sort of stuff that gave NIN their reputation as the pre-eminent industrial metal band. Some of the band's most famous songs are on this excellent 6-track EP, including the excellent "Wish", "Last" and "Gave Up", not forgetting the two not-so-secret bonus tracks, a version of Adam Ant's "Physical" and their own "Suck", worth the purchase price on their own...
