New NIN album - The Slip

http://theslip.nin.com/ - free download again which is really cool.

Haven't had a chance to listen to it all the way through yet but first impressions aren't as good as they were for Ghost which I thought was a great break away from the formula which NIN slips into alot of the time... might change my opinion the more I listen to it though.

I've got mixed feelings on it, to be honest.

As a long time NIN fan, I found Ghosts to be a bit of a disappointment as a NIN album, but a fun experiment as a Trent Reznor album, if that makes sense. I was excited when Discipline was officially 'leaked' but found it lacked the stuff that NIN used to do so well, like memorable lyrics and an experimental, confrontational feel. I like 'pop NIN' too, though, I seem to be one of the few people on the net that enjoyed With Teeth, but With Teeth and Year Zero had strong melodies and singalong choruses to back up the sound, whereas these songs seem a bit forgettable for me at the moment.

It may grow on me, it's early days yet .

Only listened to the album once so far, I like the second half a great deal more than the first half, but I will have to listen more. Cool that its free!

I'm just listening to it now. Not the hugest NIN fan, but I like some of the stuff, and it's tough to deny Reznor's talent. Pretty cool he's just giving this one away too.

let it play through while I worked. it was inoffensive, but nothing immediately grabbed me

The album started off ok, but I was really enjoying it towards the middle and end. Trent is pulling a 70's Elton John with albums this frequent, it's pretty cool.

Not my favorite of his, but it's still good, some track are great too. Reznor is definitely a marketing model for every musician out there (the way he did Ghosts was perfect--I wish I could buy digital downloads like that all the time).
