After years of waiting to do this, he released Deviations 1 and TF_Definitve.
I have made these mixes with the extended portions with clean intros and outros. Most are mixed with the extra tidbits and differences found on D1.
I left out 'Deep' & 'The Perfect Drug' because they never felt at home with the Fragile era, although TPD was on the WITT single, it's only connection may have been to a few similar new instrumental tracks on D1.
But if I had to include them in, I would put 'TPD' between the LEFT and CENTER portion, 'Deep' between CENTER and RIGHT.
The two Deviations instrumentals felt necessary where they should have been on the LEFT portion. They are also set ups for the rest of the CENTER portion, regarding Deviations.
Soeaking of set ups, I always felt it was amazing how many mini-macguffins he had in the original release. The Frail-Fragile, La Mer-Into the Void, etc. Over time, I felt that The Great Collapse was a not only a nice set up to the Wretched, but to The Great Below as well. And since there's a shit-ton of instrumentals, it's an awesome way to set up for those that come later as well, considering it's mostly an instrumental song itself. Metal does flow very well into Even Deeper. Same Bpms, and similar vibes from both, at least for me.
STILL tracks needed to be separated as to not have too many tracks on the LEFT portion. I always felt that after the track AATCHB, part one of that story had ended. TPOL and LH were part two of an end. So I put them on the RIGHT portion where I thought they made sense, and the ones on the LEFT portion as well.
The Center portion always made sense to me as a deviation of two deviations. And since Saul's tracks from 'Rise & Liberation of Niggy Tardust' featured some of the pile of Fragile demos that Deviations 1 stirred from, it makes that a Deviation as well, with 'The March' and 'Skin Of A Drum' leading and ending. Also, lyrics are nice sometimes. The rest of the order can be played with at your hearts desire. The order I made below for it felt acceptable.

All right, so this is my version of The Downward Spiral, the reason why tracks like "Ruiner" are not here since in this version the protagonist does not have any God to overthrow. It is just a battle againts Mr.Self Destruct which he in this cause is just a personified clinical depression, I called this playlist "The Straight Fall" because I am bad with names.
- The Art Of Self Destruction, Part One
- Mr. Self Destruct
- Piggy (Nothing Can Stop Me Now)
- Burn
- The Becoming
- I Do Not Want This
- Closer
- Reptile
- Big Man With A Gun
- A Warm Place
- Eraser
- The Downward Spiral
- Hurt
Here's one for With_Teeth called Bleedthrough instead. Not much here to see, just added Not So Preetty now as a starter for the album while also changing the order of the tracks to make it seem like a concept album where the protagonist suffers drom drug addictionsa nd depression abut slowly starts fighting over it and accepts it. I always believed that With_Teeth was about that, after all Trent was at that kind of place. I just feel like this way, at least for me personally it seems linear (?)
- Not So Pretty Now
- Home
- All The Love In The World
- Every Day Is Exactly The Same
- With Teeth
- Love Is Not Enough
- Getting Smaller
- You Know What You Are
- Sunspots
- The Hand That Feeds
- Only

- Beside You In Time
- Right Where It Belongs
Here's one for The Fragile if it was one sided LP, still trying to retain its concept.
1. Somewhat Damaged.
2. The Wretched
3. The Fragile
4. We're In This Together
5. Just Like You Imagined
6. Even Deeper
7. La Mer
8. The Great Below
9. The Way Out Is Through
10. Into The Void.
11. The Big Come Down
12. Underneath It All
13. Ripe (With Decay) (From Deviations)
14. And All That Could Have Been
