Haven't gotten my email yet. Hopefully I'll get it later today, I'm actually really curious about this one.

Its around 40 minutes long. It has a few quiet tracks, but a lot of them are noisy synth. Take With Teeth and give it a lot of Year Zero. I love the sound of this a lot.

Its crazy how Trent even released it in the highest quality possible. Way beyond FLAC. Generally for people with crazy ProTools setups I guess.

I like it. I don't love it, but I like it. Still; Trent is awesome.

Hmm, this is quite cool so far. I'm about halfway through, and I'm really starting to like this sound. At first the ultra-ugly fuzzed-out guitars only got on my nerves, but I've really started to like it now. Some unexpected melodic parts, too. (Er, a different kind of melody than expected, at least... for example 'head down')

Yeah, its a nice little album. The instrumentals kinda bugged me a bit, being we had Ghosts already. I saw those two extra tracks from that, but not sure if theres any actual official arrangements of them. They just came as multi-tracks on the $300 edition of Ghosts.

I'm gonna try and make my own remix of the slip. The songs probably wont end up sounding so different, but it will be fun for me at least, and maybe just have my own little special versions of the songs? :P

Also, does anybody notice the abrupt ending of Discipline into Echoplex? I mean, it fades out but not completely. could've sworn the old MP3 of it didn't cut it off.

Hey this record is pretty sweet!

Trent Reznor doing his best John Zorn impression? Maybe Zorn on speed...

powered through 2 listens at t his point.

I'm still unsure where I stand. I like it, but I don't love it (yet)...it may need time to grow on me, that said, I did get into it more on the second run through.

I await my e-mail, didnt even know about this! I got into them via Year Zero, and got Ghosts since then, so this is quite awesome.

I kinda noticed that. While I enjoy all the tracks, the last few tracks are pretty damn sweet. Is it just me or does the chorus to "1,000,000" sound a lot like the chorus to "Survivalism"?

listened to it twice and actually like it quite a lot, especially the second half of the Album. I'll buy it when it's out!

Yeah, same formula. Sounds better than Survivalism though. Took me forever to get what the hell Trent was singing in that one at the chorus. Yet it does bring back memories of last year...
