Summary: NIN at their best
Comment: The original 1994 release was the first time I heard NIN, and was completely blown away. My dad and I were instantly hooked on this CD. This is NIN at their best. I have been a fan ever since and have considered this CD as their best.

Summary: I can't believe my ears...
Comment: ...Wow. I really don't know where to even begin.
All I can say, is that this album was made for Super Audio CD (SACD) - Trent and his crew really brought this album to life.
Here's my setup:
Denon DVD-2910 (DVD Audio-Video/Super Audio CD player)
Onkyo A/V Receiver TX-SR800 with 5.1 surround sound (with two center speakers)
...and I'm listening to this album at a fairly loud volume as I type this.
This is my first SACD purchase and I couldn't be happier with my decision to buy it. The Downward Spiral was (for me) a 90's classic; the album is jam-packed with so much raw energy and emotion. In fact, there were many times I felt my speakers couldn't handle all the sound, and because of this I often thought that the music never sounded like it should. I often thought that Reznor simply put way too much into each song (samples, loops, random noises..etc.) because you couldn't always hear everything that was going on, making you feel slightly disappointed.
That was then, and this is now. And boy how times have changed, the SACD version of The Downward Spiral is not only mind-blowing in sound quality, but it simply makes sense to re-create such a complex album in high definition. The multichannel digital re-mastering of each individual song brings an entire new sound to the same old songs you know and love, making it practically impossible for you (the listener) to NOT hear anything new. It is very clear that Reznor and his crew have done A LOT of work on these songs, assigning channels to all the different sounds, drones, bass-lines, guitar riffs, drums, vocals that were previously forced to be spread across only 2-channels (left and right). I kid you not, these songs all sound incredibly different from the originals, but ironically they sound the way you always thought they should sound: audible. For example, did you know there was a repeating bass-line at the end of eraser? One that shook your entire house? I think not. The same goes for Reznor's voice; you can actually hear him loud and clear on every song.
In summary, if you own (or have access to) a Super Audio CD player and a 5.1 surround sound setup, this is one album that will not disappoint, period. The audio is loud, sharp, in-your-face, and all-around-you, what else more could you want from Nine Inch Nails?
If you don't own a SACD player, you will still hear a definite improvement of sound from the original recording. All hybrid SACD's (including this one) come with a standard CD layer designed for playback in a standard CD player and have been re-mastered in stereo and Dolby Pro-Logic surround sound, something that the original recording was not.
Fantastic job to all who was involved in the high definition re-production of this album.

Summary: The soundtrack for Lucas' THX
Comment: As everyone else has pointed out this a great album and an absolute NIN classic, but what no one else has mentioned is that this cd was written as a soundtrack for George Lucas' film THX 1138. Start the cd as you see "Directed by George Lucas" go off the screen and sit back and enjoy the film and c.d with a new perspective. The c.d ends short of the film and that's when you pop in either of the further downward spirals to finish of the film in two different ways.

Summary: Nine Inch Nails Best Album
Comment: I didn't believe that a cd could make me feel the power of the agressive, but the downward spyral is a fistful of steel in your mouth!!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: The most important album yet made.
Comment: No other artist from the 1990's took it's fanbase into further exploits and deeply passionate industrial soundscape than NIN. Trent Reznor, creator, vaocalist, and essential figure of NIN is primarily responsible for this five star work of timeless art. Now, years later, the digitally remastered version along with added bonuses is available in full surround sound. Nothing new or remixed, just the same great album made louder for your zune or ipod thingy. Buy this!!! It's the best album ever made!

Originally released in 1994, Trent Reznor created THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL as both a concept album and modern day classic. This influential 90’s classic is Trent Reznor’s industrial cum-tragic opera view of the world and the soul’s sonically detailed fall from grace. The Downward Spiral delves into despair and anger with hard guitars and brutal beats. This SACD/Hybrid DELUXE EDITION of THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL celebrates the 10 Anniversary of the modern masterpiece. DELUXE EDITION includeds 2 hybrid SACD/CDs: Disc One - The original album in SACD Surround Sound (remixed by Trent Reznor), and newly remastered SACD Stereo and CD Stereo program. Disc Two - Bonus material (13 B-Sides, Remixes, and Rarities) in SACD Stereo and CD Stereo.
