About

On December 16, 2016 an expanded instrumental version of The Fragile on 180 gram vinyl was announced. Entitled The Fragile: Deviations 1, it will ship in early 2017 and will contain over an hour of unreleased material.

"A very special limited edition of The Fragile is now available for preorder in the NIN store. This unique version of NIN’s classic record was created by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross and features 37 instrumental, alternate and unreleased tracks, many of which have never been heard before anywhere."

Reznor explains, 'The Fragile occupies a very interesting and intimate place in my heart. I was going through a turbulent time in my life when making it and revisiting it has become a form of therapy for me. As an experiment, I removed all the vocals from the record and found it became a truly changed experience that worked on a different yet compelling level. The Fragile: Deviations 1 represents Atticus and I embellishing the original record with a number of tracks from those sessions we didn’t use before. The result paints a complimentary but different picture we wanted to share.'

The Fragile: Deviations 1 will not be available on any digital services and only available in this format while this limited run lasts."
