What Do You Think About The New NIN Album?

In case you got sauced on tequila and woke up face down in a puddle of your own sick and cannot remember what I wrote yesterday, here's a refresher: Nine Inch Nails (specifically the Hottie McHotterson Trent Reznor, pictured) yesterday released The Slip, the newest addition to their catalog. Absolutely free.

In fact, it's so free Mr. Reznor doesn't want you to pay for it at all unless, of course, you're stuck in the early 90's and want to buy the CD come July.

So, Erotobots—what do you think of the new album? Does free content mean a decline in quality?

Personally, I think it's great; a throwback to 2005's With Teeth. Very danceable.

The little touches, too, are what makes it great. I noticed each track has distinct album art in iTunes and, unlike my other iTunes "purchases" (read: illegal downloads), these tracks included lyrics! I remember reading a long time ago that Apple planned on adding lyrics to all downloads but never saw the dream come to fruition.

Again, leave it to Trent Reznor to influence the music industry just a tiny, delicious, barechested bit.
