not that much of a surprise really.all those side project releases etc with the same crew kinda indicated he was still active in the studio .. after all, this was not bowie/mbv/daft punk period of disconnection was it.

I've a hunch it will be really good though.

On Columbia? I thought he was going to be releasing without a label?

he clearly lies.he admits it.
― mark e, Tuesday, 28 May 2013 22:27 (eleven years ago) link
the How To Destroy Angels album was through Columbia, it'd be pretty goofy if the new NIN was indie after that

Oh, I guess I haven't been paying that much attention.

I don't know, I used to be a big fan but I haven't even checked out that HTDA album or that facebook movie thing yet. The instrumental numbers release, Ghosts, was like the perfect end to my fandom I guess?

i can see that stuff not appealing to everyone as much as the proper NIN stuff. i feel like the new stuff will be suitably aggro and probably worth hearing, though.
― some dude, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 03:05 (eleven years ago) link
I've never really been let down by this dude yet, so I've got nothing but high hopes.

what do people think of the downward spiral singles? i saw a bunch used last week.

GRAB THEM THEY ARE GREAT
After this round of remixes things mostly go, er, downward remix wise

Cool, welcome back.

Ordered the EP; don't care about the vinyl stuff.

Ugh just take my money, Trent. The original Fragile LP is one of my prized pieces of wax and still gets a lot of play, Deviations will be a nice addition. Always loved the instrumentals from that and sooo many songs could do without the vocals.
― octobeard, Sunday, 18 December 2016 03:19 (seven years ago) link
Listening to the EP now. Not appreciably noisier than Hesitation Marks; kinda minimalist, in fact.
― Don Van Gorp, midwest regional VP, marketing (誤訳侮辱), Thursday, 22 December 2016 14:21 (seven years ago) link
Only just heard about this!
― chap, Monday, 23 January 2017 23:37 (seven years ago) link
Sounding more interesting than the accomplished but regressive Hesitation Marks.
― chap, Tuesday, 24 January 2017 00:11 (seven years ago) link
New track. Very, very old-school NIN.

Trent's been listening to synthwave. Can't wait to pre-order another bag of dirt.
― grawlix (unperson), Thursday, 13 July 2017 16:34 (seven years ago) link
This is great! Also, I do not hear old-school NIN in this at all, unless we're calling With Teeth old-school now.
― this iphone speaks many languages (DJP), Thursday, 13 July 2017 16:37 (seven years ago) link
Bag of dirt pre-ordered. (I hope that's not what it is, but I'm certainly not expecting a CD or anything.)
― grawlix (unperson), Thursday, 13 July 2017 16:43 (seven years ago) link
xp I'll defer to you on that -- since I'm not well-versed in the genre I tend to judge on more superficial resemblances, and this reminds me of what I was hearing from NIN in the late 80s. It's probably just me. Anyway, this is the best new song I've heard from anyone in months.
― Old Lynch's Sex Paragraph (Phil D.), Thursday, 13 July 2017 16:58 (seven years ago) link
ime it's sort of like if a with teeth song were playing behind a synth line from a yaz record
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Thursday, 13 July 2017 17:11 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, it's very "what if we mashed up Only You with The Hand That Feeds"
― this iphone speaks many languages (DJP), Thursday, 13 July 2017 17:16 (seven years ago) link
Not bad.

Trent's been listening to synthwave.
not just listening, but watching the videos as well.the bit at the start is very synthwave before it all kicks off.i like it.a lot.
― mark e, Thursday, 13 July 2017 17:40 (seven years ago) link
isn't there an OPN video just like this
I haven't listened to a new NIN song since WITHA TEETHA but I gotta say, this is pretty good
― frogbs, Thursday, 13 July 2017 18:20 (seven years ago) link
With you on that. This is p good. Seems like he found his drum sound preset again, after years of having lost it (and this is a good thing)
― Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 14 July 2017 00:37 (seven years ago) link
I love it, very "The Hand That Feeds."

wait a second. there are nin fans who don't like the fragile?.
― BringTheAuBonPain, Friday, 14 July 2017 05:08 (seven years ago) link
I like about three or four songs from it, but the rest is a slog.
― grawlix (unperson), Friday, 14 July 2017 11:57 (seven years ago) link
This is great!
― imago, Friday, 14 July 2017 12:12 (seven years ago) link
I definitely felt that way about The Fragile when it first came out (I was 13 and just wanted some freakin NOISE!!!) but after nearly 2 decades and a few dozen listens I think it's really great
― frogbs, Friday, 14 July 2017 13:40 (seven years ago) link
Fragile Left is often my favorite NIN album.
Conversely, Fragile Right is my least-favorite.
― this iphone speaks many languages (DJP), Friday, 14 July 2017 13:53 (seven years ago) link
serious question, I got off after With Teeth, are any of the other albums worth hearing
― frogbs, Friday, 14 July 2017 13:55 (seven years ago) link
YES
― this iphone speaks many languages (DJP), Friday, 14 July 2017 13:56 (seven years ago) link
Year Zero especially is the perfect soundtrack to American life in 2017.
year zero and hesitation marks are both v good records that i think only suffer from being a little too long

tbh this guy is pretty consistent in what he does. I wouldn't say any of his albums is significantly better or worse than the others
― licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Friday, 14 July 2017 14:56 (seven years ago) link
Downward Spiral still pretty easily his best work though IMO.
This new one has an excellent beat, but my tolerance for his breathy/nassal vocal style and dumb rhymes continues to want with time. Having said that, that harmonising part in the second pre-chorus is really cool.
