In an unexpected but not unwelcome move, Trent Reznor announced that The Slip, the latest Nine Inch Nails CD, will be available for free on their official site. No catch. No hoax. No corporate greed. For those who prefer to own a physical disc with album art, Nine Inch Nails will also be releasing the album in CD and vinyl format. Vinyl. Fucking ace. Nine Inch Nails is one of the increasing number of acts who have begun to explore alternative ways of releasing music in the emerging digital music industry. Making their album available for free not only shows NIN's appreciation for the fans, but also happens to be a brilliant marketing strategy. Good for Trent, I say. I am never one to bash free music.
Go ahead, check it out:
