Nine Inch Nails – Pretty Hate Machine – Vinyl – W/ Code

Debut studio album by the industrial rock band, originally released in October 1989. The album, which features a heavily synth-driven electronic sound blended with industrial and rock elements, bears little resemblance to the bands subsequent work. Conversely, much like the bands later work, the albums lyrics contain themes of angst, betrayal, and lovesickness. The record was promoted with the singles Down in It, Head Like a Hole, and Sin.
