let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

Clearly the emotional distance isn't quite wide enough yet... After hearing it again and ruminating on this decision for a while, it no longer sits well with me to accredit this album in such a way. The unrelentingly aggressive and resentful nature of the lyrics is what repels me once more; I think even later NIN albums were better able to dose or channel their negative emotions in a more bearable fashion. I have no problem per se with unfiltered expressions of anger and despair in music, but the one emotion that in my experience exudes most of all from The Downward Spiral is downright hatred, seemingly borne from some of the ugliest and most sinister forms of misanthropy. I cannot relate to it and I don't want to be associated with it anymore. If it were mostly instrumental I might have stood by it, but right now I'm taking it off my list.

Happy to know that the year of my birth was able to provide me with a top 10 I'm pretty satisfied with. My relationship with The Downward Spiral over the years has been very strange, going from obsessing over it, to associating it with a particularly bad time in my life and therefore wanting to purge it from memory, to the present time where I can look at it with more emotional distance and acknowledge it as the finely crafted musical opus that I believe it to be (EDIT: Rectification further down this page) 1. Frank Zappa - Civilization Phaze III 2. Tim Hodgkinson - Each In Our Own Thoughts 3. Vangelis - Blade Runner: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack 4. U Totem - Strange Attractors 5. Robert Fripp - 1999: Soundscapes Live In Argentina 6. French TV - Virtue In Futility 7. Ozric Tentacles - Arborescence 8. Popol Vuh - City Raga 9. Il Berlione - In 453 Minutes Infernal Cooking 10. FFWD - FFWD Honourable mentions: * California Guitar Trio - Yamanashi Blues * Herbie Hancock - Dis Is Da Drum
