New Nine Inch Nails album released

[sharplittleteeth]

Leaving his record company seems to agree with Trent Reznor. He's just released the latest NIN album online.

It's called Ghosts I-IV.

It's 36 tracks, all instrumental. You can listen to a stream of it from the website. You can download it for $5. CDs will be in stores in April. Or you can BitTorrent it legally, since he's releasing it under a Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license.

I'm going to wait a day or two before I download it, since the website is being hammered by fans at the moment.

Listening to the streaming audio, some of it sounds like the instrumentals of Still, and some of it sounds like backing tracks off Year Zero. It's not the greatest music NIN have ever produced, but it's solid listening.

Except there's no way you'll be able to get it for a few days, because the server is being fucking hammered.

And Brian from the Dresden Dolls worked on a few tracks! Are you on their mailing list? If not, I can forward you a copy.
