▀■ ▄■▀ During the time that Pretty Hate Machine ▓█
▄▄ was becoming an underground sensation, ██
▐█▌ Trent Reznor became embroiled in legal ██
██▄ difficulties with his label that prevented ██
▀█▓▄ the release of any new Nine Inch Nails ██
▀ ▀▀▀██▀▀▀▀██ ▐█▓▌ material. But the three-year wait actually ██
▀ ▀ ▄██▀ helped -- most of NIN's fans were ██
■ ▀ relatively recent converts, and they ██
▄■ ▄▀ ▄█ eagerly snapped up 1992's Broken, which ██
▄▄ ▐▌ ██ afforded the already angst-ridden Reznor ██
▐█▌ ▀ ■ ▀█ the opportunity to vent his ample ██
▓█▄ ▄▓▄ ██ ▀ frustration over the imbroglio. Where ██
▀█▓▄ ▀ ██ Pretty Hate Machine had a few moments of ▀█
▐█▓▌ ██ reflection and sardonic humor, Broken is a ██
▄██▀ ▀■ ██ concentrated blast of caustic, naked rage. ██
▀■ ▄■▀ Given how draining it is, a full-length ▓█
▄▄ album in its style would unquestionably ██
▐█▌ have been wearisome, even self-parodic. So, ██
██▄ Broken is the rare EP that's conceptually ██
▀█▓▄ focused and complete unto itself. ██
▀ ▀▀▀██▀▀▀▀██ ▐█▓▌ Production-wise, it's also a step up from ██
▀ ▀ ▄██▀ Pretty Hate Machine, and a showcase for ██
■ ▀ Reznor's flowering studio acumen. While ██
▄■ ▄▀ ▄█ Pretty Hate Machine was primarily ██
▄▄ ▐▌ ██ electronic, Broken is loaded with heavy, ██
▐█▌ ▀ ■ ▀█ jagged guitars, processed through a ██
▓█▄ ▄▓▄ ██ ▀ veritable meat grinder of effects into a ██
▀█▓▄ ▀ ██ massive wall of distortion. Each song ▀█
▐█▓▌ ██ one-ups the viciousness of its predecessor; ██
▄██▀ ▀■ ██ even the two relatively subdued ██
▀■ ▄■▀ instrumental interludes are full of ▓█
▄▄ abrasive textures. There are two hidden ██
▐█▌ bonus cuts at the end of the CD (early ██
██▄ pressings had them on a separate disc); ██
▀█▓▄ they're neither as produced nor as intense, ██
▀ ▀▀▀██▀▀▀▀██ ▐█▓▌ and thus separated conceptually as well as ██
▀ ▀ ▄██▀ physically. The cover of Adam Ant's ██
■ ▀ "(You're So) Physical" was something of a ██
▄■ ▄▀ ▄█ revelation -- not just demonstrating ██
▄▄ ▐▌ ██ Reznor's fondness for new wave, but serving ██
▐█▌ ▀ ■ ▀█ as a touchstone for his self-conscious, ██
▓█▄ ▄▓▄ ██ ▀ glammed-up sense of style. That -- and his ██
▀█▓▄ ▀ ██ skills as a producer and arranger -- would ▀█
▐█▓▌ ██ reach their fullest realization on The ██
▄██▀ ▀■ ██ Downward Spiral, but Broken's tight focus ██
▀■ ▄■▀ and frothing intensity make it a major work ▓█
▄▄ in its own right. ██
