Following the success and controversy surrounding the Broken EP in 1992, NIN released their sophomore album, The Downward Spiral, in March 1994. The record debuted in second place on the Billboard chart, and has gone on to shift four million copies - their biggest seller to date. Heavily influenced by the late 1970s work of Pink Floyd and David Bowie, the album was recorded - along with Broken - at the site of the 1969 Sharon Tate murder by Charles Manson's infamous Family. The record spawned the topical singles 'March Of The Pigs' and 'Closer', with 'Hurt' and 'Piggy' also receiving considerable airtime. The album was ranked at 200 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Later in'94, the group set out on their notorious Self Destruct Tour with shows often descending into violence and chaos, as the members routinely smashed equipment - and often themselves too - at the climax of each performance. Perhaps the most memorable event however was NIN's set at Woodstock '94 in Saugerties, New York on Saturday 13th August, where the group played alongside Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Cypress Hill and numerous others. Often dubbed Mudstock, NIN took to the stage drenched and dirty, and attracted the largest crowd of the entire weekend. Broadcast live on FM radio and Pay-Per-View television to an audience of over 24 million, this recording includes the entire performance given by the band on this momentous occasion. Despite Reznor's later dissatisfaction with the results, it remains the stuff of legend. With exceptional renditions of 'March Of The Pigs', 'Closer' and 'Happiness Is Slavery' alongside other classics, this brutal and uncompromising show is captured here in the highest possible quality and will form a welcome addition to the collections of fans everywhere.
