Broken (Nine Inch Nails EP)

Broken is an EP released on September 22, 1992. American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails' second extended release after Pretty Hate Machine, it consists entirely of new material and was their major label debut. Produced by frontman Trent Reznor and Flood, it replaces the electronica and synthpop style of Pretty Hate Machine with a considerably heavier sound that would act as a precursor for Nine Inch Nail's acclaimed second studio album, The Downward Spiral. Its influences are industrial metal and noise rock.
