Most of the 10 tracks on Things Falling Apart don't improve upon their originals. Skinny Puppy's Dave Ogilvie makes "Starfuckers, Inc." more dancefloor friendly with his remix, but it sounds too much like he's trying to evoke Downward Spiral-era NIN; Keith Hillebrandt's remix of "The Wretched" tweaks Reznor's voice, but after a promising beginning collapses into whispering vocals and industrial noise; and Adrian Sherwood, a producer best known for his experiments in dub, also goes industrial by amplifying the drilling synthesizers of "Starfuckers, Inc." Danny Lohner and Tel Aviv fare better with their remix of "Where Is Everybody?" which pairs Reznor's echoing vocals with a buzzing bass line, and a remix of "The Frail" by the duo known as Benelli (Joshua Eustis and Turk Dietrich) opens with a string section and then adds Aphex Twin-like bleeps. It's the perfect remix, in that it's actually more adventurous than just about anything on The Fragile.
