I've heard a lot of their stuff, but I'm not a huge fan of any of it. The video to "closer" is good though. I think "Dead Souls" is pretty good.

I was into NIN from the beginning, things got boring very quickly after The Downward Spiral. For a new person, I'd probably recommend TDS.

Everything up to Perfect Drug is good. Newer than that is pretty boring.

I've heard the newer stuff and I stand by my comment. Although 'and all that could have been' is a step back in the right direction.

the fragile is good though its quite experimental and for a newcomer it would be difficult to get into.
if you were going to but a cd i'd recomend "and all that could have been" its kind of a live greatest hits compilation. Or even better you could get the special edition which has that cd and some new songs which are amongst his best he's ever done.

I got into NIN about a year ago, my obsession started with TDS... so that's what I would naturally recommend. It was one of the first artists I ever got into where I NEEDED more. The Fragile was so beautiful when I first heard it... and I think it still is. Pretty Hate Machine is ok, but I don't really consider it on the same level as I do the others. Still is beautiful as well, but it's kind of fragile-esque. The thing I like about NIN is that every cd is a different direction, an evolution :)

I think the new stuff is crap - but perhaps that's because I can't connect to the music anymore. Ten years ago I was a poor student and his kind of angst really meant something to me. Now I'm happily married and successful - and his lyrics just seem rather trite. I think I'll go listen to some Mouse on Mars now.

That's probably why I don't really like nin much anymore. I grew up. And mouse on mars does sound good right about now. I'm gona go put some on.
np: mouse on mars - instrumentals : )

personally i think his lycrics are some of the best written in music today, however its his music that really impresses me and in the long run its what will keep me listening to nin. his instrumentals are some of the best songs i've ever heard. "a warm place" "gone/still" "leaving hope"
