The Fragile

The Fragile is the third studio album by the American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released as a triple album by Nothing Records and Interscope Records on September 21, 1999. It was produced by Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor and the English producer Alan Moulder, a longtime Reznor collaborator. It was recorded throughout 1997 to 1999 in New Orleans. In a departure from The Downward Spiral, the album has elements of ambient and electronic music. It continues some of the lyrical themes from The Downward Spiral, including depression and drug abuse, but also has more instrumental sections, including entire instrumental tracks. The record was promoted with three singles: "The Day the World Went Away", "We're in This Together", and "Into the Void", as well as the promotional single "Starfuckers, Inc." and an accompanying tour, the Fragility Tour, which spanned two legs. Several accompanying recordings were also released, including a remix album, Things Falling Apart, a live album, And All That Could Have Been, as well as an alternate version of the record, The Fragile: Deviations 1.
