i had read last week that Nine Inch Nails was coming out with a new CD...and that it would be FREE.
Of course i remember this happening once before with RadioHead (i think) and i also had read that Incubus was going to follow suit too. so ...i was intrigued.
i kinda forgot about this NIN article when i got an email that the cd had been released...only on their website. so i went in search of some answers.
on their website (www.nin.com) i found out that u can download the first 8 tracks out of 36 for free...then it was only $5 to get all 36 tracks!! rock on! so $5 i did spend.
i started listening and reading more about the album...which is all intrumental.
i would recommend this album to ANYONE! i had the best time listening to this work on my iPod while traveling through the city at night. it’s like i was in my own world...like my life finally had a soundtrack. it was frightning and moving and very raw. I applaud Trent Reznor for making such a living album...not sure if he even realizes what he made or how it effects the everyday things...but, tonight at 1am, while i waited for the subway alone...it was exciting, moving and very emotional. even the walk to my apt was like a movie. total thriller.
and the photography is brilliant. usually with an album u just get to stare at the same pic (usually the album cover) when u listen to each song on your iPod...but he has given each song it’s own photograph while i listen. amazing.
as a choreographer...i want to choreograph every piece. as a songwriter...i want to create lyrics to every phrase. it makes me want to become a cinematographer.
just very inspiring.
