The Fragile
On September 21 the most anticipated album of the decade appears in public music stores in a digipack... the promotion started during the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards when a 30 second teaser of (supposedly) La Mer and Into the Void was aired to the world.
In 1999 the second teaser was aired. It repeats the lyric "All I've undergone, I will keep on", similar to the We're In This Together lyric "All we've undergone, we must keep on". However, they are not the same song... and the piano riff at the end of We're In This Together is not the same as that of La Mer.
Information on this page was based off of album pre-view in 1999.
01. Somewhat Damaged
Starting off the album, Somewhat Damaged is similar to the way Mr. Self Destruct started off The Downward Spiral. According to Alternative Press, it's "where Pink Floyd's Interstellar Overdrive picks up"... or "hypnotic"...
02. The Day the World Went Away
Go out and buy Halo 13 if you haven't heard it.
03. The Frail
Frail means "fragile", so we can expect that it will sound similar to "The Fragile", which was heard on 9/9/99... it is an instrumental...
04. The Wretched
The Wretched has been heard, and the lyrics are up... it is described as "anti"...similar to Closer...

An eerie piano floods the song with a feel of regret...

According to Alternative Press, it is Death Metal and rocks you harder than Korn... it gives me nightmares, and reminds me of Tool's "Die Ier Van Satan"...

A song about liars...

A clip was played during the MTV VMA 1998 ceremony. What we heard was a piano riff similar to "We're In This Together"... but according to AP, it uses an upright bass with massive cello and orchestra instruments.

I don't know what's with the whole "With Decay" comment, but according to alternative press, the track is a quiet acoustic number... similar to Help Me I'm In Hell.
