Nine Inch Nails – Ghosts I-IV March 3, 2008
Some of you may already be aware of this, but Trent Reznor has released a new Nine Inch Nails album titled “Ghosts”, and he’s using the internet to distribute it. This is still a relatively new way of releasing music, and bands like Nine Inch Nails and Radiohead are at the forefront of the movement. On the official website, you can get the first volume of “Ghosts” for free. There are four volumes, and several ‘plans’ to choose from in order to obtain the other three: “$5 gets you a download of all four volumes/36 tracks, $10 gets you the download + the collection on two CDs, $75 comes with a fabric slipcase and a data DVD and other crazyness, and for $300 he’ll sign stuff and give you the collection on vinyl and probably cook you dinner if you ask nicely.” (via Stereogum) Since the NIN.com servers are apparently pretty overloaded right now, I threw the album on megaupload (here) for your convenience. I have seen the first volume of the album on a few different torrent sites (such as The Pirate Bay) and it’s pretty obvious that Trent (or someone that works for him) uploaded it, so that’s pretty cool. I listened to Vol 1-4, and it sounds pretty decent – FYI, it’s all instrumental. That’s all for now.

instrumentals? waaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
the only good thing about NIN is the type of toilet paper they use backstage.
jk, i got this a few days ago but haven’t listened to it yet. it better have some older NIN feel to it and as little “perfect drug” vibe as possible.

Thought I would share this bit of info that saved me $250 (or the cost of a new ipod) to everyone who ends up with the “sad ipod-www.apple.com/support/ipod” screen after load up.

Believe it, or not. (And shit, if it’s broken why not try it anyway?)
