During a podcast with Skinny Puppy's cEvin Key, Danny Lohner revealed that Reznor was inspired by Tom Waits' Bone Machine when making The Fragile, and that "Somewhat Damaged" was written and originally demoed around the time of " The Perfect Drug". [10] Bone Machine's use of Harry Partch-style found object percussion influenced the unique percussion on certain parts of the album. While on tour in 2014 in Australia and New Zealand, Reznor was interviewed by a local reporter and was quoted about the reissue stating: DiCrescenzo, Brent (September 21, 1999). "Nine Inch Nails: The Fragile". Pitchfork. Chicago . Retrieved June 2, 2022.There's a general theme to the album of systems failing and things sort of falling apart. In keeping with the idea of making everything sound a little broken, I chose stringed instruments because they're imperfect by nature. Although it may not sound like it, most of the album is actually guitar - and that includes the orchestral sounds and weird melodic lines. When it came to instruments that I didn't really know how to play - like the ukulele or the slide guitar - we were able to get some really interesting sounds by making the studio the main instrument. Remastered from the original sources in 2016 on 180-gram Vinyl, with lots of details that you may never notice, but we care about.”

[ citation needed] When we assembled the cassette, we now had four beginnings and endings to contend with instead of two of each (for the CD) follow? It worked out pretty well just dividing the songs up, but we wanted the A sides of the cassettes to be slightly longer than the B sides (so that when the tape flips over you are not in the middle of the first song on that side). We added the 'appendage' to 'please' to make that work.
