looking forward to a full pitckforkesque review from
monoid

if it's as good as the slip i'll be very happy.

I hope the whole thing is better than that Hau hau haunted
single.

.....well, "hope" is a bad word here - after that lame
family project with the wife I don't really care and don't
really believe he can match Slip - while that one, being
very good [I even bought it], wasn't his finest effort.
what's the point in babbling about "last NIN tour" and going
all Rob Smith about it ? Soon or later money would be needed
and NIN would have to come back to provide for the Reznor
family. Am I wrong

the slip was great! not just the music but it felt like a
proper album.

i've heard it once and was rather underwhelmed. the free mp3
"copy of a" is lovely thou.

I'll play my Slip vinyl interspersed with new tracks in a
moment. I'm expecting great fun.

the live show has a somewhat of Talking heads "stop making
sense". i like it. there's a tour rehearsal recording
available.

I'm digging the album, though most of the songs really are
alike if you look at the arrangements. Especially all tracks
where Trent sings, and then echo-loops through the next
line. It can seem a bit "cheap", when there's 3 of those
tracks before you reach the albums mid-point.

"Copy of A" is definitely one of the most energetic tracks
from NIN in a long time, and it's only issue being that it's
the only one track this album, that reaches that energy. Two
more of those, and we would have been in a whole other
league. It's in the "Wish"/"Gave Up" basket of NIN-tracks in
my book.

"Everything" is really a misplaced thing.

All in all it's a good and honest album, but you have to
adjust your seat a bit, if you're a die hard NIN devotee.

thanks. listening again, at track 4 I'm already opening my
wallet, hopefully I won't shut it after track 14.

so far it sounds like return to year zero/ghosts times - so
electronic it shits zeroes and ones. I like it.

though if he fucks this up down the playlist it will be
second big dissappoint in a row this week, after new Jackson
AHCB

thanks Trent for saving my money. at track 6 the album got
unbearably moany and yawny. not my thing. all the best to
yo' family and stuff.
