Despite the 4 hour length and how this album sounds as a whole, I feel that this could potentially serve as a gateway for the more abrasive, more experimental end of the electronic music spectrum. The first time I came across this as a kid, this was by far the harshest and strangest piece of music I've heard at that time. And yet it also felt accessible in a way I can't put my finger on? It made me become fascinated from the very start, gave me this sense of morbid curiosity and this drive to ... read more
In 2019, my first time listening to this album was accompanied by the passing of a family dog, which now haunts what is already imbued with such an unexplainable vibe.

This pushes EVERY SINGLE RIGHT BUTTON for me and I would be remiss to not call this a perfect album, I cannot spin it any other way. This is going to get a full review whenever I get around to it, I have loads and loads to gush over with The Downward Spiral.
