Yeah I had gone and previously downloaded it. All I have to say is no wonder its free. Trent is spiraling into genericism. I don't like Trent's new direction at all. Year Zero was terrible as well. T_T NIN has been one of my faves for a long time. I am sad to see his music take such a hit to the meaningfulness and quality that it once had.

I liked The Slip and Year Zero. I also like his older albums.

This Year, NIN has been quite interesting. Ghosts was pretty good. Even reminded me of quake. However, The Slip, was just awful. Not a single song in it was worth a listen, IMO.
The Slip is like Pretty Hate Machine, but thats me.

What? Sounds nothing like Pretty Hate Machine, to me. The Slip sounds more like With Teeth, IMO.

i dont like the concept of the year zero album, so pretencious and empty, im still waiting an album that can resembles at least all that nine inch nails are.
i heard about a colaboration whit billy corgan in the new album, you know something??

Okay, to start off. Year Zero wasn't terrible, it was good for what it was and was a better follow-up to With Teeth which again was alright. As for the Slip, it felt more like an EP if you ask me. As of yet, I have to agree I can't really find one 'identifiable' song which defines the CD. You can find it with the rest, for example;
The Downward Spiral: Closer & Hurt
The Fragile: Star****ers, Inc.
With Teeth: The Hand That Feeds
Year Zero: Survivalism
The Slip: ??
It's an okay Halo. Definetely not his best.

The Slip dids sound like a EP. I wonder then is Year Zero pt.2 is coming out.

I did like The Slip, but Year Zero is my definite favorite. besides it being an amazing album lyrically and musically, I wouldn't have gotten into NIN if it weren't for that album.

Should listen to Pretty Hate Machine then, you should love that if you like Year Zero.

Meh, it was decent in my opinion, allthough I havent listened to it many times. I think that Trent needs to spend more time on his albums, and not pop a new one out every few months...
The album is nothing special really i only found one decent song glad its free. NIN like all artists is going downward his music seems to have a rushed and empty feel. But the good thing is with every NIN release theres one decent song.
How can it mean anything to me. If I really don't feel anything at all?

They're all decent songs, in my opinion of course, but what I meant earlier was that 'identifiable' song. That one song which sums up the whole album or gives a general feel to the album like the songs I stated before.
NIN aren't going downwards in terms of music, if you see them live and see the amount of people rocking on down to Survivalism and The Hand That Feeds compared to the people getting their kicks off songs like Wish and Burn then you'd see they're about the same. NIN always release good music, if anything, this is his first disappointing EP/album/halo.

First off - I must mention i HATE Trent - TWO ALBUMS IN ONE YEAR?! just kidding, i love the crazy guy.
I heard The Slip when it just came out and I really enjoyed it. there are a few average songs but there are also some really great ones (AKA Echoplex, 1000000, Discipline etc.) It's a great album, and i liked it (although Year Zero is better). NIN's music isn't going Downwards, They are as good as they were (even if the style changes every once in a while, the overall is still great), and most NIN fans would agree on that.
