This one's still my favorite. Not a bad song on it.

I don't cue this up half as much as I should. I still have my original CD (covered in CD-rot but still plays) and on the car's MP3 player, when one of the tracks from PHM come on (random play amongst a couple of thousand tracks) it's like going back to my college days and it amazes me just how much Nin has changed but also how much of the original feel is still there. It was genius back then and it's still top, fucking genius now.

He hasn't really changed though from what he was already doing. It's the same music. He does what he likes no questions asked. And the sound fits the feel for the album and it never has lost quality in whatever he writes. His music is brilliant.

This is one of my most favorite albums overall. With Teeth is a close second. This album shows the extreme talent that he had almost 20 years ago. We as fans had a lot to look forward to. He has really come a long way with his music and it all kicks ass.

Trent's debut is awesome. Everything before Halo 18 was amazing. Now he makes good music, but nothing like PHM, Broken, TDS, and TF.
