Sean Patton’s first appearance on The 500 centers around what some consider Nine Inch Nails’ masterpiece, The Downward Spiral. The title foreshadowed what Trent Reznor’s life would become after the release of Nine Inch Nails’ second full-length studio album. Explaining the self-loathing nature of the songs on TDS, Trent Reznor said "I'm not proud to say I hate myself and don't like what I am, but maybe there is real human communication that ends up positive even though everything being said is negative."
