View source for Talk:The Downward Spiral (halo)

I was thinking, the songs themselves are not the same entities as the halos with the same names (if not in the case of the singles, at least in the case of the LPs themselves.  The Downward Spiral is clearly not the same entity as it's title track, the same goes for The Fragile, or With Teeth.)

We want this wiki to be comprehensive, don't we?  Look at the Down In It pages, I think that's a good way to do things.  We're not wikipedia after all.  Otherwise that defeats the point of doing it at all.  What do you guys think?--[[User:GrayscaleRain|GrayscaleRain]] 09:11, 16 February 2007 (PST)

==Industrial==
''...is said to have brought "Industrial" music to the mainstream.''

Wasn't "industrial" music already brought to the mainstream by [[Pretty Hate Machine]], or so many claim? [[User:Pomte|Pomte]] 21:20, 16 February 2007 (PST)

:I don't think [[Pretty Hate Machine]] should be labeled as industrial. I think [[Broken]] should have that title. But, that was technically an EP, so it didn't count. I just fucking love this album, but with much controversy. [[User:??lostiNconfusIoN??|??lostiNconfusIoN??]] 17:57, 17 October 2008 (PDT)

== Cystal Japan ==

I removed the link for Crystal Japan.  I don't think it's neccessary, this isn't a David Bowie wiki.  Any thoughts? -[[User:Meatball|Meatball]] 10:53, 9 May 2007 (PDT)

== Oh, dear GOD!!! ==

For God's sake, where the *beep* is that *beep* [[Reptile]] female voice loop from, anyway? The [[Samples In NIN Songs]] page says it's from a movie called "Nekromantik", while [[The Downward Spiral (halo)|this page]] says it's from "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre". In Wikipedia, the TDS article said that it's from "Massacre" a year ago, but then somebody changed it to "Nekromantik". I tried searching at echoingthesound.org, but others said it's from "Nekromantik" and others said that it's from "Massacre".

DAMN! WHERE THE '''HELL''' IS THAT *beep* SAMPLE FROM? I wasn't surprised that Trent performed the sample ''himself'' in AATCHB ("oooh... please... don't hurt me... please!"). --[[User:Wizfan|Wizfan]], the [[User_talk:Wizfan|man who erased the capital H]] 23:27, 24 September 2007 (PDT)

== Possible Interpretations? ==

Hey, I came here looking for possible interpretations of this album among many other things, and my thoughts are that people who come here might be looking for the same. While the link to that brilliant dissertation is great and all, what do you think about adding some thoughts about the concepts behind each song, on the song pages themselves or on here? -- [[User:No1joel|Joel]] 01:40, 25 April 2008 (PDT)
