But you voted for The Fragile, whereas I voted for Spiral.

So, you think the quality of the songs on The Fragile makes the album better overall, even tho Spiral's songs work better together?

The way I see it, Downward Spiral tells a story... each song building on the one before... about a poor manic-depressive shmo that falls for a good-for-nothing chick that stomps on his heart which leads to his suicide.

the deepest shade of mushroom blue
all fuzzy

If the fragile is "about" anything, I can't figure it out... The songs are just cool.

Here's all of Spiral's lyrics... good and depressing... lol:
