    Soon to be over-the-hill, Reznor shows signs of maturity in well crafted music. I'm glad he is staying true to himself and gives you what he wants and not selling out, giving into the masses.

    In my opinion, Trent Reznor is one of the only musicians out there today who can create truly engaging songs from such a vast array of sounds- whether they be instrumental, electronic, vocal, or anything else.

He can layer what feels like an infinite number of sounds over one another and make them work together to create one mammoth, and usually flawless, piece of music. He is a modern composer. On the other hand, he is also able to create some of the most beautiful and intriguing songs I have ever heard with nothing more than a few simple piano chords and his alluring voice. The awe-inspiring and unique thing about Trent Reznor lies in his ability to achieve both of these extremes- intelligent, definitive complexity and stunning, affecting simplicity. I think this kind of ability is rare these days, and I think 'With Teeth' demonstrates and exemplifies his talent.… Expand

    With Teeth seems to combine elements from all previous albums: the accessibility of Pretty Hate Machine, the sonic consistency of Broken, and the multi-layered, experimental styles of both The Downward Spiral and The Fragile. In some ways, WT transcends everything that's come before it.

    More reminiscent to "Pretty Hate Machine" than "Downward Spiral" to me, but a major return to form with only one slightly duff track (the title track). "Right where it belongs" has to be the successor to "Hurt" - especially after Johnny Cash made it his own

People like to rag on this album for being far too mainstream for Trent, but I think this newfound pop sensibility suits him very well.

    I love this album. I wasn't a big fan of the last album, but this one has a fresh feel with beautiful, pain driven sounds. Unlike some other albums, the darkness is (welcomely) broken up a bit by some funkier songs in the middle of the album. All of it is pure NIN, but the last few tracks meld seamlessly into a masterful ending.

    I also expected him to evolve his style to something more subtle (ie: the "Still" album). Nonetheless I was gripped by this CD from the start.

Although many tracks sound very refined and orchestrated like in his later work, the overall mood and atmosphere of the album in it's entirety feels chaotic and frustrated like in "Pretty Hate Machine" and "Broken".

    Perfectly encompasses every aspect of Rezner's unique and ever evolving sound. While stripped down to the bare essentials, the familiar emotion still remains. All the rage. All the despair. All the self destruction. And for once, an honest realization. As easy to listen to as Pretty Hate Machine, while still maintaining the hard aggression of The Downward Spiral.

On the first, second, and third times round, it appears to be Reznor's finest work thus far. Though it may rub off as a serious bout of depression, the songs contained within the album are, at many times, quite inspiring. Reznor has come clean and begun to emerge from the hole he has been trapped in. Perhaps, by example, his fans will follow suit and strive to do the same.

    It is amusing to see how people cannot cope with the fact that a person is smart. Simply smart, simply distant. That's how Reznor was, that's how Reznor is and will be.

    Bring it on. Every NIN album I've had the pleasure of witnessing has been a different treat. I owe so much of my life to this man and his incredible insights. With Teeth may be a bit more slick, but it's tight and executed with complete perfection.

    With Teeth is not bad... it's different. I can't understand whay Trend recorded Sunspots and Collector. I don't like those. But all the rest.... it's just perfect. My grade is: 8'' (0'' worst 9'' best ;) )

    A great album with great songs; getting smaller and thtf are like starfuckers inc., pretty weak! But the rest is just Reznor: music that touches your soul, in an angry and in a beautiful and sad way!

    This is one of NIN's better albums, sounding at times like both The Perfect Drug and Downward Spiral with a touch of The Fragile. The catchiest tracks are "you know what you are" , "everyday is exactly the same" and "getting smaller" but each song is solid.

    After the commercial disappointment of The Fragile, I was worried he'd be too concerned about radio playability at the expense of quality. I'm happy to say it didn't happen. Only two, maybe three radio type songs, very little thrash...gets better with every listen.

    While not as epic or ambitious as TDS or TF, this is an amazing record. It's f**** great to hear new NIN material after all this years!

    From the beautiful "All The Love In The World" to the ass kicking "Do You Know What You Are" to the toe- tapping catchy almost-could-even-be top-40 "The Hand That Feeds" to the gut-wrenching "Right Where It Belongs", Trent again has given us some fine music. I personaly love his last project, 1999's "The Fragile", but "With Teeth" is by far his best release since 1994's "The From the beautiful "All The Love In The World" to the ass kicking "Do You Know What You Are" to the toe- tapping catchy almost-could-even-be top-40 "The Hand That Feeds" to the gut-wrenching "Right Where It Belongs", Trent again has given us some fine music.

    Shock horror! With Teeth dares to be different to The Downward Spiral....guess thats what you call progress. Reznor continues to move forward, sideways and horizontally, this is a fresh, imaginative and excellently produced album...as always!!

    Quite frankly, this is the record that NIN should have released if Reznor had wanted to capitalize on the success of The Downward Spiral.

    More in line with his tighter debut, Pretty Hate Machine, With Teeth is made up of bursts of dark, scary and paranoid gut punches.

    Reznor seems to have finally grasped that listening to a NIN album should not be as torturous as whatever artistic agony went into its creation. [29 Apr 2005, p.145]
