Awesome March 3, 2008 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I'm about halfway through this right now and it's an incredible album so far. Be sure you know you're checking out an instrumental album, but as long as you were a fan of "A Warm Place" or any of Trent's other mostly instrumental songs, you'll enjoy this immensely.
If you listen closely, you might even catch a few motifs from Closer and other songs. :)

This album is an amazing work of art. Not to be mistaken as a typical music release. This is a genius at work, changing not only the way we receive our music but the way we approach listening to our music. Music for your dreams and possibly a soundtrack to your nightmares. Beautiful visual images and amazingly beautiful thought provoking music. Proves music is still an instrument used to touch lives and provide an escape from or a soundtrack to your life. You don't have to like NIN to appreciate this work of art, but it helps if you atleast realize the man is a brilliant musician who always pushs himself to accomplish the impossible, taking music even further. Everything about this album is beautiful and breath taking. Thanks again Trent.

I never thought I would get to the point where I could say I liked a new NIN record, but this one blows that thought of the water.
Excellent body of work, only small elements of his recent work (With_Teeth, Year Zero) but I feel as though he's getting back into his Fragile days. It's completely instrumental... I think he's realized that his voice isn't what it used to be. The album is heavily conceptual, very few tracks (if any) stand out more than others, forcing a listen in it's entirety.
If you are familiar with Set Fire to Flames, you will definitely appreciate this record. Experimental, yet harmoniously comes together to provide listeners with something new and well executed by Trent and company.
wow... amazing... March 16, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just can't stop listening to it over and over again. I'm a programmer and it's hard for me to focus when I'm listening to most music. This album is subtle enough for me to stay focused on coding but the album is intriguing and rhythmic enough for me to bop my head to it now and then. It's a perfect balance of ambient and traditional instrumental. A bizarre quality about this album is that after hearing the entire album more than a dozen times, I still don't feel the need to fast-forward past certain tracks. This is the first NIN album that I've purchased since The Fragile.
Perhaps part of the reason that I like it so much is that I had low expectations of crack noise before I tried it out. After listening to only four tracks though, I flipped out over it!
It's a Conundrum that you paid little or nothing at all for March 16, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I wanted to wait a week, and see how I felt about this album, before I wrote a review. I really don't see how you can get bored of this album because it kind of just hypnotizes you. It's not a normal NIN album, but then again it is. It's not quite as good as "Still", but then again it's better in some respects. Some songs sound complete, and others sound like sketches that could become bigger songs, or even just scream to have lyrics put over them. I like it and really can't wait to play with multi tracks, it really like that melody that shows up out of no where that sounds like it was sampled off an old Atari.
But really, in the end, you either go this album for free or for five bucks so can you really complain much?
