Fuck. I hate working until four in the morning. I missed the chance to talk to my musical hero.

Oh well, maybe next time.

edit: January is over! So no!

*LOCKED*

I think they do it backwards in the UK so i think it means Jan 2009.

But no its not true (at least yet)

This is like a double-deuce ignorance attack.

No way, as soon as Trent insulted his fans with criticism the rest of them all jumped in to slobber over his junk faster than you could say "Fanboy!".

I'm kind of disappointed that Robin hasn't updated his website by now. I figured that after his contributions to the album were complete he would at least try to promote it on his website.

EDIT: Haha, Trent Reznor just got pissed at all the people on Echoing The Sound for criticizing his free album in get this, the official The Slip complaint/criticism thread. I didn't think it was really him but everyone on the board just accepted it as fact so I assume it's known over there what his Username is.

I checked the last couple of pages of this drivel, and for what it's worth... FUCK YOU! The Slip is what it is - it's not The Fragile or YZ or anything else. The songs are in the order they are because that's the way I wanted it to be. It was done the way it was done because that's the way I wanted it to be. When every record I've done comes out, a chorus of naysayers appear bitching about it not sounding like what they expect it to. The record has been out for what, four days now? If you don't like it, don't listen to the fucker.

I love the guys work and he has truly enriched my life with his awesome music, but I'm sorry, that's fucked up. I LIKE this album, but telling fans who were mainly offering constructive criticism or who just weren't feeling the album "fuck you" is inappropriate and highly immature. I understand if it was directed at mindless flamers or something, but most of the responses in the thread were honest and well thought out, all the while thanking Trent for the free album and appreciating what he was doing for the fans.

I could just never, ever, get into NIN. The only songs I enjoy are "Hurt", "Hand That Feeds", and the Joy Division cover for The Crow.

I don't know what all that you've heard, but the first time I heard The Downward Spiral, I hated it. Later on, thanks to Madison and others on here who were big fans, I caved in and bought Broken. Broken sold me on the band immediately. "Wish", "Last", and "Physical" are still some of my favorite NIN songs.

Now I'm a rabid fan and absolutely love The Downward Spiral and the rest of the main releases (favorite being The Fragile, of course.)

Listening to it right now. A lot better than the safety of "Discipline" led me to believe.

That would be awesome, that's my birthday, and I saw GN'R in 2006 on September 23rd.

A man can dream, right?

Yeah, those shirts in the first post kinda suck, and the last one is absolutely terrible. They need to do more stuff with the newer logo and styling instead of releasing "Vintage 1987" style shit.

That's really cool except for the yellow.

FYI the song that Randy so eloquently recommended Trent start to relapse over is now available for quick and easy download from NIN.com.

You didn't like Ghosts? I think it's amazing. Especially in Vinyl format, for some reason I'm liking it a lot more off of the vinyl than the CD. Very relaxing.

I know that he has a history of digging at GN'R and its fans, I just really didn't take the "soon" as a dig at us, but more a dig at his own fans, who also have grown to loathe the word "soon" over the years.

I just don't see how you can automatically assume it's directed at us (although I shouldn't say "us" since I am a pretty heavy NIN fan as well), I just think you're reaching with this one, man.

I REALLY don't think a "soon" joke is automatically a dig at GN'R fans. NIN fans have been afflicted by the "soon" bullshit many times as well prior to With Teeth. I think it's kind of ridiculous to automatically jump to the conclusion that he was making fun of GN'R. Ridiculous and kind of narcissistic, to be honest.

TITS OR GTFO

I gotta say, as a huge NIN fan, this song is pretty "by the book" for post Fragile NIN singles. I like the song, but I was expecting something else, and am not blown away. I'm sure it will still be a great album, though.

Prince does it better.

Apologies if this has already been posted. I just saw this at Echoing The Sound and did a quick check and didn't see it anywhere. And I know that this should probably go in "My World" or something, but I just thought it'd be nice for GN'R fans to see that it COULD be worse.

Plenty of times. When we were getting leaks left and right for awhile there this place exploded.

I guess I should always trust my ears over what some DJ supposedly said on a pay to listen radio station.

I don't think Axl is on there... did they say he was on the broadcast? Album only version perhaps?

The show preview clearly said that it was the Axl version.

Ah... then I guess he's really low in the mix then. There are a few parts where I thought it COULD be Axl using his "It's So Easy" voice, but I really couldn't tell. I was hoping he'd be the one tossin' the screams around, but Seb did an awesome job.

I don't think Axl is on there... did they say he was on the broadcast? Album only version perhaps?

I hate you all right now but will instantly love everyone and everything as soon as I get a copy of this. :-P

I don't refer to it as that...

Not only was the setlist lame, but Bubblefoot is STILL doing the Don't Cry solo. That is hilarious. These guys just refuse to change up ANYTHING.

Lame setlist? ...he's playing "The Best Of Guns N' Roses" to the people who haven't heard Axl sing sense the 80's and you morons telling us is a lame setlist?

This man speaks the truth.

to all those who are confused it's exactly 12:59 in mexico and they still aren't on the person that said they were on is bullshiting you

Well I'm more inclined to believe an experienced poster rather than a newbie.

Wait... post 666? Dunh dunh dunh!

...

God I'm tired.

So it IS on? So confused.
