This sounds absolutely nothing like Pretty Hate Machine. There is fairly complex writing on that album and is the least noisy of anything Reznor's produced. It could have used a bit better production or mastering, but there are some gems on it.
He did step up the the noise and went towards a bit darker tone and content with the Broken EP, but is even better than the first album. Furthermost, Kim's latest sounds nothing like NIN.
