An impressive album by Nine Inch Nails! I was blown away by Trent's decision to allow everyone to download the whole album for free. It's really impressive to see him embracing technology and the way it's changing the music industry instead of trying to fight it. I have been a Nine Inch Nails fan for close to 15 years now and because of his consideration of his fans by releasing this album for free to us, I decided to purchase the physical CD of the Slip to show my support. So I encourage everyone: be a good fan and support the artist, especially since this artist is trying to help his own fans!

This CD shows that Trent Reznor (Frontman of Nine Inch Nails) still has the creative mind to compose music worthy of our generation. Though over the recent years he has surely mellowed out in terms of hard-hitting loud and violent music, he is still creating melodies and lyrics that still define what Nine Inch Nails really is. The Slip is perfect for newcomers because of its short play time and catchy songs. The single "Discipline" is a wonderful example of his catchy songs that any fan of music would appreciate. "Echoplex" ends with a wonderful melody that might leave people humming it in their head. Unlike most Nine Inch Nails records this ends on a less slow ending with "Demon Seed" which has a mysterious meaning as to where Trent Reznor is taking his music in the future.

If you have listened to Nine Inch Nails in the past, well, you should listen now more. Trent has assaulted his own standards of music with an even fresher sound and an more aggressive talent. Whether its the blood pumping track 1,000,000 or the politically charged Letting you, or the thumping beat of Discipline - you'll be happy you purchased the album.

All of the talent on this album are in his concerts, and after having pit tickets to his August 2008 Dallas show I can say without a doubt they are skilled. Live, on album, or in video on this disc - you will not be disappointed.

If you love electronic music, hard rock, or Nine Inch Nails - you should get this album in THIS edition. If you love to hear something great, and new, and something cutting edge - get THIS edition.

The video disc makes it a great deal alone!

Nice extras but bought this to support artists like Trent who are fighting record label greed. Great NIN cd from beginning to end.

I've been a fan for a while, and I'll just say it's free.
I love 1,000,000, it just made me feel juvenile again. But the rest of the album is great just for the whole B-side feel of it. But it doesn't get that heavy of a rotation on my Ipod.

After taking his other work so seriously it's nice to have somthing to not take so seriously.
