'''''The Downward Spiral''''' (also known as '''''[[Nine Inch Nails discography#Halo numbers|Halo 8]]''''') is the third major release by [[United States|American]] [[Industrial rock]] act [[Nine Inch Nails]], released in 1994 on Reznor's own [[Nothing Records]] (a [[vanity label]] of [[Interscope Records]]). "Halo 8" of the official Nine Inch Nails [[Nine Inch Nails discography#Halo numbers|halo releases]], it is a [[concept album]] detailing the destruction of an undisclosed man; from the beginning to his climatic suicide. The album was a major commercial success that secured Nine Inch Nails as a force in the 1990s music scene, in particular following the release of the single "[[Closer (Nine Inch Nails song)|Closer]]" and its controversial video.
==Recording==
To record the album, Reznor rented the house located at [[10050 Cielo Drive]] in [[Beverly Hills, California]] where actress [[Sharon Tate]] was murdered by members of the [[Manson Family]] in 1969. Reznor built a studio space in the house which he named Le Pig, after the message that was scrawled on the front door with Tate's blood by her murderers. Reznor told ''Entertainment Weekly'' that despite the notoriety attached to the house, he chose to record there because, "I looked at a lot of places, and this just happened to be the one I liked most." Reznor moved out of the house in December 1993, after he said "there was too much history in that house for me to handle." After the album's recording, [[Trent Reznor]] consulted with the landlords and had the house demolished shortly after.<ref>{{Citation |url=http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,301460,00.html |title=Making Records: Where Manson Murdered Helter Shelter |publisher=Entertainment Weekly |date=[[1994-03-18]] |issue=214 |accessdate=2007-11-01}}</ref>

{{cquote|While I was working on Downward Spiral, I was living in the house where Sharon Tate was killed. Then one day I met her sister. It was a random thing, just a brief encounter. And she said: 'Are you exploiting my sister's death by living in her house?' For the first time, the whole thing kind of slapped me in the face. I said, 'No, it's just sort of my own interest in American folklore. I'm in this place where a weird part of history occurred.' I guess it never really struck me before, but it did then. She lost her sister from a senseless, ignorant situation that I don't want to support. When she was talking to me, I realized for the first time, 'What if it was my sister?' I thought, 'Fuck [[Charles Manson|Charlie Manson]].' I went home and cried that night. It made me see there's another side to things, you know?}}
Reznor set out to make an album that was a departure from the 1992 ''[[Broken (Nine Inch Nails EP)|Broken]]'' EP, emphasizing "mood, texture, restraint and subtlety."<ref name="Taylor" /> He brought in a number of guest performers to record, including former [[Jane's Addiction]] and [[Porno for Pyros]] drummer [[Stephen Perkins]]<ref name="Taylor">

</ref> and [[progressive rock]] guitarist [[Adrian Belew]]. Perkins played a number of drum parts that were recorded live in the studio; these tracks were in turn turned into sample loops. Reznor took a similar approach to recording guitar parts. Reznor would record 20 to 25-minute long sessions of himself playing guitar on a hard disc recorder with a Studio Vision sequencer, then would cut out parts of the recording he found interesting for later use. Reznor said, "99 percent of the stuff we do–even vocals–is recorded into the computer [''hard disk''] first. We get an arrangement together and then dump it to tape."<ref name="guitar world">di Perna, Alan. "Machine Head". ''Guitar World''. April 1994.</ref>

* The loop of screaming voices heard at the beginning of "The Becoming" is a sample from the film ''[[Robot Jox]]''.
* The sampled clanks at the beginning of "Reptile" can be heard in the film ''[[Leviathan (film)| Leviathan]]''.
* The strange sobbing sound in "Reptile" (at 5:06) originates from the movie-in-movie in Jörg Buttgereit's film ''[[Nekromantik]]''.
* The frantic drumming on the end of "Piggy" is courtesy of Reznor himself. This is currently his first and only attempt at live drumming on a record, and one of the few "live" drum performances on the album. Reznor stated that the recording was from him testing the microphone setup in studio, but he liked the sound too much not to include it.<ref>

==Reception==
''The Downward Spiral'' was released March 1994. The album debuted the following week at number two on the ''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'' album charts.<ref>"[http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,301554,00.html Changing of the Garden]". ''Entertainment Weekly''. [[March 25]], [[1994]]. Retrieved [[October 26]], [[2007]].</ref> The album was well-received by critics. Jon Pareles of ''[[The New York Times]]'' wrote, "Every instrument, acoustic or synthetic, seems tuned to create the maximum aural abrasion," Pareles asserted that unlike other industrial groups like [[Ministry (band)|Ministry]] and [[Nitzer Ebb]], "Reznor writes full-fledged tunes; he knows his way around melodic hooks, not just riffs. And while purists accuse him of selling out their insular genres, he actually trumps them; the music is no less transgressive, and possibly more so, because it sticks in the ear."<ref>Pareles, Jon. "[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9904EFDC1130F93BA35756C0A962958260 A Noise Sculptor Reveals An Ear for the Commercial]". ''The New York Times''. [[May 8]], [[1994]]. Retrieved [[October 26]], [[2007]].</ref> ''[[Rolling Stone]]'' awarded the album four out of five stars; reviewer Jonathan Gold praised the album as "music that pins playback levels far into the red", and concluded, "''The Downward Spiral'' is music the blade runner might throw down to: low-tech futurism that rocks."<ref>Gold, Jonathan.

Retrieved [[October 30]], [[2007]].</ref> ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' gave the album a B+; reviewer Tom Sinclair wrote, "Reznor's pet topics (sex, power, S&M, hatred, transcendence) are all here, wrapped in hooks that hit your psyche with the force of a blowtorch."<ref>Sinclair, Tom. "[http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,301446,00.html ''The Downward Spiral'']" [review]. ''Entertainment Weekly''. [[March 18]], [[1994]]. Retrieved [[October 26]], [[2007]].</ref>

==Lyrics==
There are several layers of metaphors that move throughout the album, which opens it to a multitude of interpretations. {{Fact|date=April 2008}} As a whole, ''The Downward Spiral'' is replete with [[Nietzschean]] concepts; [[existentialism]] is without a doubt one of its fundamental themes.{{Fact|date=April 2008}} The album also relays many [[Nihilistic]] concepts, such as the chorus line in ''Heresy'', which exclaims: ''"Your god is dead/And no one cares. If there is a hell/I'll see you there."'' It is a [[concept album]] in which the overarching plot follows the character along his life's "Downward Spiral". While this character can be understood as a representation of Reznor himself. (Metal Edge July 2005)
{{cquote|...it was during that tour (The Downward Spiral) that problems started to arise. Prior to that I would have considered myself pretty normal. With the Downward Spiral, I can remember where I was in my head, what I was thinking, and I can remember writing that record, and the mindset. This record that was about an extension of me, became the truth fulfilling itself.}}
