I am checking this out.

The last release I liked from NIN was Broken. Couldn't care less about this.

I got it the other day. Its good. But it reminds me a lot of "With Teeth". Almost like each song has a counterpart on that album.

it didn't grab me on the first listen, but it's really raw and there more than a few cool parts.

It seems like they are one of those "Love em or Hate em" type of groups.

| Quote: | Nine Inch Nails Gives Fans The Slip
Trent Reznor introduces his latest album, The Slip, with a note that reads, "Thank you for your continued and loyal support over the years -- this
one's on me."
He means it. The album is available for free in what could be the perfect array of digital formats: MP3, lossless (FLAC or Apple) or 24-bit,
96-kHz WAV files that sound better than the CD would have, if Reznor had bothered to release one yet. Vinyl and CD versions will go
on sale in July, according to the Nine Inch Nails site.
You can stream all of The Slip starting Monday on iLike or download it for free with a valid e-mail address.
The album is more song-oriented than the instrumental abstraction of the band's recently released Ghosts I-IV, with full vocal tracks and the sort of
dark, grimy loops that helped Reznor make his name.
Not only is The Slip available for free, but it was released under the Creative Commons "attribution noncommercial share-alike" license. A note on the
NIN site says: "We encourage you to remix it, share it with your friends, post it on your blog, play it on your podcast, give it to strangers,
etc."
The MP3 version of the album is available as a direct download from a server, while the larger files (lossless and high-resolution) are available as
torrent downloads. All versions come with a printable PDF with the album cover, the track listing and artwork for each track. The
liner notes list the release date as January 2008, but aside from "Discipline" and "Echoplex" (.mp3) none of the songs have been previously released.
Reznor's direct-to-fans approach extends to his upcoming tour. Tickets will be available through the NIN website in the 72 hours leading up to
the show. Each ticket will have the name of the buyer printed on it, so they will not be available through scalpers. |
in 6 weeks or so, an NIN album that has been available on the internet for over 2 weeks now, in multiple forms of high quality, will go on sale and
SoundScan will pick it up.
will it chart?
then, a tour is planned where tickets are only available through the NIN website, your name is printed on the ticket, but they don't go on sale until
3 days before.
will this work?
the envelope had been pushed.

THey put on great shows. I saw them several times since 1990.
