Nine Inch Nails ‘Do A Radiohead’

Ok, so we’re a little late in posting this but we’ve been busy. And, it doesn’t really matter as it seems all their servers are stuffed as I can’t download it at the moment… But here’s the skinny:

Available now at the Nine Inch Nails website, the first tracks in a new series of releases referred to as Ghosts. It contains “almost two hours of new music composed and recorded over an intense ten week period last fall.

“I’ve been considering and wanting to make this kind of record for years,” Reznor said. “But by its very nature it wouldn’t have made sense until this point. This collection of music is the result of working from a very visual perspective – dressing imagined locations and scenarios with sound and texture; a soundtrack for daydreams.

“I’m very pleased with the result and the ability to present it directly to you without interference. I hope you enjoy the first four volumes of Ghosts.”

There are several ways to buy Ghosts I – IV. The most popular, surely, will be the offer of the first nine, DRM-free, LAME-encoded (320kbps) tracks for free. That comes with a 40-page PDF guide to the release and other digital extras, (wallpapers, icons, etc).

For $5 you get all 36 tracks in digital format plus a PDF and the digital extras, while for $10 two CDs are bundled in as a “six panel digipak package with a 16 page booklet.” That ships on April 8th.

There are other options, if you’re feeling flush – $75, $300… more info on the website… god only knows what you get for $300. 

The record features contributions from Dresden Dolls drummer Brian Viglione, producers Alan Moulder and Atticus Ross and guitarist Adrian Belew, who has worked with David Bowie and Frank Zappa, among others.
