The Downward Spiral
''The Downward Spiral'' is the second studio album by the American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released on March 8, 1994, by Nothing Records in the United States and Island Records in Europe. It is a concept album detailing the self-destruction of a man from the beginning of his misanthropic "downward spiral" to his suicidal breaking point. The album was a commercial success and established Nine Inch Nails as a reputable force in the 1990s music scene, with its sound being widely imitated, and the band receiving media attention and multiple honors. Trent Reznor, the band's sole official member at the time, had moved to 10050 Cielo Drive in Benedict Canyon, Los Angeles, the site of the murder of actress Sharon Tate by members of the Manson Family in 1969; it was transformed into a studio for recording the '' Broken'' EP (1992) and subsequently ''The Downward Spiral''.

It was released on September 22, 1992, by Nothing Records, Nothing, TVT Records, TVT, and Interscope Records. The EP was produced by frontman Trent Reznor and Flood (producer), Flood.

The record was promoted with music videos for five of the eight songs which were censored due to their violent content, as well as a short film Broken (1993 film), of the same name, which was never officially released, but was later leaked as a Bootleg recording, bootleg.
