The Fragile (Halo 14) is the third studio album by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released on September 21, 1999, by Interscope Records. A double album, it was produced by Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor and long-time collaborator Alan Moulder. The album features a rich array of electronic beats, ambient noise, and heavy guitar. While it received critical acclaim from many, it did not receive the commercial success that its predecessor, The Downward Spiral, did (attributed variously to the difference in musical climate, and insufficient promotion by Interscope Records). The Fragile peaked at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart in its debut week, before dropping to number 16 the following week. The album was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America on January 4, 2000, denoting shipments of two million copies in the United States. Despite some criticism for its length and lyrical substance, the album received positive reviews from most music critics. The Fragile was promoted with four singles: “The Day the World Went Away”, “We’re in This Together”, “Into the Void”, and a promotional single that received a fair amount of airtime, “Starfuckers, Inc.” A companion remix album, Things Falling Apart, was released in 2000.
