NIИ | The Fragile | Artwork Concept

David Carson's description and explanation of the artwork for The Fragile:

“This record is sonically stunning, and had so much effort put in to make it such an intricately beautiful piece of art. Reznor definitely reveals his fragility in this album and unashamedly so. Every song cuts deep and feels so personal. It's solemn and desperate but also quietly hopeful and feels as if the music itself understands any struggles you might be going through. Trent writes music from the heart and makes music that feels beautifully relatable to the listener and this album captures that perfectly. I love this album so dearly, it is just so unbelievably gorgeous.”

“The Fragile will take you on through an emotional thresher, exploring anger, sadness, despair, hope, emptiness, greed... it is an incredible sonic adventure of introspection and discovery, a deep dive into a dark mind. So hook up your loudest soundsystem or get a good pair of headphones and listen to this record.”
