| This remix album features versions of "The Wretched", "Star******, Inc", "The Frail", and "Where is Everbody", form the critically-acclaimed CD The Fragile. Also included on this ten song disc is a cover of Gary Numan's "Metal" and a never-before-released track from The Fragile recording sessions, "The Great Collapse". Produced by Trent Reznor, the album follows in a long line of remix albums released by the Grammy Award winning Nine Inch Nails. This also includes remixes by Adrian Sherwood, Keith Hillebrandt, Dave Ogilvie, and Danny Lohner.
| | Album Notes and Credits |
Notes & Personnel Info |  | Things Falling Apart contains various manipulations of songs recorded from the Fragile sessions. | | Nine Inch Nails: Trent Raznor (vocals, various instruments). | | Additional personnel: Steve Hokel (violin); Marc Paradis (cello); Telefon Tel Aviv (programming). | | Producers: Adrian Sherwood, Mark Stewart, Joshua Eustis, Turk Dietrich, Charles Cooper. | | The best words to describe the music of Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails are caustic and scathing. Billed as manipulations of songs recorded during THE FRAGILE sessions, THINGS FALLING APART stands on its own as a solid release. The remixes are so drastic that they become separate entities from their distant origins. | | Long-time collaborators such as Alan Moulder, Charlie Clouser (now a full-fledged member of Nine Inch Nails), and Dave Ogilvie were recruited to flesh out the new instrumentation, while Danny Lohner, Keith Hillebrandt, and Adrian Sherwood master the control boards. The result is a swirling mix of synth-pop, crunchy guitar riffs, and ambient, archaic soundscapes. From the haunting strings in Bellini's version of "The Frail" to the pulsating Sherwood remix of "Starfuckers, Inc.," this collection aims for the deepest recesses of the human soul. A DVD containing live footage and videos is also available. |

- "...The NIN remixes are quality....Even FRAGILE leftovers are still warm..."Melody Maker (11/28/00, p.52)
- 3 stars out of 5 - "...Remixed like acid burns through flesh, NIN now sound like the sort of band chosen to play sleazy metal dives in horror films to illustrate that the clientele are low-life scum. You'll dance 'til you're sick." NME (Magazine)
(10/28/00, p.40)
- 10 out of 10 - "...The best Nine Inch Nails album...ever! Mainly because it contains much less Trent Reznor..." |
