Notes & Personnel Info |  | Composer: Trent Reznor. | | Nine Inch Nails: Alessandro Cortini, Robin Fink, Josh Freese, Trent Reznor. | | Programmer: Atticus Ross. | | Audio Mixer: Alan Moulder. | | Audio Remasterer: Brian Gardner. | | Mere months after Trent Reznor unveiled the 2008 instrumental collection GHOSTS I-IV online without warning, the Nine Inch Nails frontman issued another independent album out of the blue--a completely free studio album entitled THE SLIP. While not a radical departure from the fuzzed-out dystopia of YEAR ZERO, this 10-track outing does hark back to Reznor's earlier work (most notably THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL), as on the pounding "Discipline," which is tempered by a chiming keyboard melody, and the spare, piano-driven piece "Light in the Sky," a song that showcases the artist's brooding persona. Pithy and immediate, THE SLIP functions as a refreshing counterpoint to NIN's cumbersome 1999 double-disc outing, THE FRAGILE, and easily ranks as one of Trent Reznor's most satisfying endeavors. |

- 4 stars out of 5 -- "For listeners who like their music loud and fierce and pissed off at just about everything, there aren't too many better options than THE SLIP."Spin (p.111)
- 4 stars out of 5 -- "THE SLIP is primo death funk with Reznor seething seductively about skies fading to black over grinding soundscapes that perfectly split the difference between computer-music clarity and live-band grit." Kerrang (Magazine)
(p.48)
- "[C]omprised of 10 tracks that veer between the atmospheric and the downright funky, the discordant to the sublimely melodic." Blender (Magazine)
(p.74)
- 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his is industrial-strength Trent -- lithe, throbbing shame-disco, torrid guitar obliteration...and one revitalized 43-year-old auteur..." |
