However, I had a look at the lyrics, and the lyric "you left a mark, up and down my skin" reminds me quite a bit of the inner sleeve pics on the YZ cd...coincedence? you decide.

Us NIN fans are not brain-washed Reznor zombies, I spent ages listening to the free first 9 tracks on repeat before buying and I still love Ghosts, and would gladly spend the money again, as would a lot of NIN fans. Ghosts may have lacked lyrics, but its a very diverse and interesting album to get into. As for his marketing skills, the guy treats his fans with respect, and what he has gotten in return is a solid, devoted fan base who will buy his stuff, spread the word and have formed a very unique web community. The Year Zero ARG gave NIN fans everywhere a huge buzz, I think the marketing to him is just a bonus. So on behalf of like-minded NIN fans everywhere, congrats to Trent Reznor, I think he deserves every penny he gets and the record labels can go sh1t3. PS, I agree Discipline is very like THTF, and I'm loving it so far. In fairness, the fans who shelled out did so of their own free will.

I agree that he's not having such remarkable success with this free-release stuff because of the quality of his work (which, for the record, I do think is quite high), but rather because of his rabid fanbase, which he built up while being a major label slave. Then again, he's been smart enough to lambaste the record execs at live shows, and encourage crowds to download his music illegally. Sure, it only means so much because he WAS at one point big, but the man is a damn smart marketer. @Erik: They were paid for the work they did.

Unless this is just a random leak and the 2 weeks thing is actually a ticket announcement. i mean he just released ghosts. like 2 months ago. is this a collection of b-sides or does he just have a ton of music up his sleeve? his creative process must be like 5 minutes long. i won’t lie i think it’s a slap in the face to fans who just shelled out money for ghosts (me).

I'm glad your record label made you into a celebrity so you can type a few words on the internet and your fans will buy what ever crap you pump out. You should send every industry professional who busted thier ass to make you a celebrity a thankyou card. I got two words for Trent Reznor – FUCK YOU.

(love that he always has the option of remixing files for those that want to, and the whole Year Zero campaign last year was fantastic). Once you strip away all the record label hoo-hah, there really is no end to the amount of new music that your favorite band can send your way. It's an exciting time, and Trent really is leading the way. As for the song....as you said...very "With Teeth" which is fine by me. I find that record to be very underrated.
