This One’s On Trent

nine inch nails the slip album art

Remember the cryptic ID3 tag from the Nine Inch Nails – Discipline single download a couple weeks ago?  Well, May 5th is upon us and a visit to nin.com reveals that the surprise is none other than a completely free download of a new Nine Inch Nails album entitled The Slip.

as a thank you to our fans for your continued support, we are giving away the new nine inch nails album one hundred percent free, exclusively via nin.com.

the music is available in a variety of formats including high-quality MP3, FLAC or M4A lossless at CD quality and even higher-than-CD quality 24/96 WAVE. your link will include all options – all free. all downloads include a PDF with artwork and credits.

for those of you interested in physical products, fear not. we plan to make a version of this release available on CD and vinyl in july. details coming soon.

I love how Trent continues to put out his material in proper digital formats, word is that the MP3 encodes are LAME V0 – none of this “encoded in iTunes” n00bery.  All it takes to download is your email address again.  I’m still waiting on my download link, but it looks to be the same process as it was in downloading “Discipline.”

Although, coming so quickly off the heels of “Ghosts I-IV,” I have a sliver of doubt of the album’s quality.  I’m guessing it’s a more traditional Nine Inch Nails album, but could Trent be oversaturating us with material?

Regardless, free albums are awesome, especially with the presentation that Trent is putting forth here.
