• Pretty Hate Machine is the debut studio album by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, originally released in October 1989 via TVT Records.
  Virtually ignored on its release, Pretty Hate Machine gradually became a word-of-mouth cult favourite. Despite frequent critical bashings, its stature and historical importance only grew in hindsight. In addition to its stealthy rise to prominence, part of the album’s legend was that budding auteur Trent Reznor took advantage of his low-level job at a Cleveland studio to begin recording it.
  Reznor had a background in synth-pop, and the vast majority of Pretty Hate Machine was electronic. Synths voiced all the main riffs, driven by pounding drum machines; distorted guitars were an important textural element, but not the primary focus.
