NIN Year Zero reviews?

I dont hear anything much different than the last cd. Its good but not that impressed on first few listens.

it's the first NIN album i've been thoroughly interested in since 1994. it sounds like the album that should have been released between pretty hate machine and downward spiral. nice balance, very melodic, great energy. love it. thumbs up!

i've been listening to my own standout tracks all the time since i got it.

but the whole album sounds great. i'm sure i'm gonna go from four favs now
to another four favs next week etc etc.

my only complaint might be that the subject matter seems a bit repetitive

but than again this does seem to be a concept album, the first instalment
of a larger scheme. he's hinted at as much, so it makes sense that way.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

it's fantastic. biggrin the only track i'm not completely into is hyperpower (i was expecting something different, i guess? shrug).

you haven't lived 'til you've listened to it while doing 100 mph on the freeway, though cool giggle

"Year Zero" is great! Superbly mixed and the cd flows together very nicely. It will be interesting to see how NIN performs these songs live...

I guess. I haven't cared in like 12 years. I'm starting to again just based on word of mouth.

Its got some really good moments. I gotta admit though, by track track 13 I had to stop listening because it was really bringing me down. How cool is the heat sensitive cd, though wink
