 The beat is still vital, but the melody is fading November 18, 2008

The downward spiral indeed. Reznor continues his artistic liberations via no record contracts, although it is becoming more and more clear that, unlike Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails used that platform to capitalize on it's popularity and fan base by releasing sometimes less restrained, but almost always less detailed songs. The Slip works well enough to provide ample counterpoint to his last snooze-fest of industrial ambiance, Ghosts I-IV, with a way more uptempo, rocking vibe, but still continues down a path of sagging mediocrity. Reznor will always be a perceptive producer and offer intriguing soundscapes- even at his most generic or derivative, but it feels like the overall compositional quality has declined.
 My Respect For NIN Might Be What's "Slipping" November 14, 2008
It's difficult to perceive that the same person who produced this also produced genius albums like The Fragile or The Downward Spiral. I like to think that I'm pretty generous with my star ratings but this just seems like it's getting worse. Granted The Slip gets a little better with each listen but I can't help but feel that my admiration for NIN is fading as quickly as they're churning out albums. I don't know how people can rate this four and five stars. Think of it in these terms, whoever gave this 5 stars is saying that it is on par with NIN's "best stuff" which is a blatant fabrication or just the same whoever gave this 4 stars is saying it is only one freakin' star beneath the f***ing DOWNWARD SPIRAL! -Giving this album three stars might even be stretching the truth. There wasn't much of this album that was impressing or memorable, and that's easy to prove, it's right here in front of you -read the reviews, you'll notice that there aren't hardly any that mention anything SPECIFIC that they liked about it... and they're right there isn't much to say! I'll admit though that the song Demon Seed immediately caught my attention and I would highly recommend the option of downloading it for free on nin.com. But in all honesty, to me, Reznor's reputation is getting 'closer' and 'closer' to ruin because it can't be good when a friend tells you, "hey nine inch nails has another new album out!" and then you almost reply, "yeah, but who gives a ****". I'll give Trent credit though, he's a brilliant musician and producer, however he's almost cursed from having been capable of works that he may never live up to again. But so far he's done a great job trying to.
Excellente Work Mr. Reznor! November 11, 2008

Excellent Work!br /br /This is a very mature work from Trent Reznor getting back to his essential power looking back to the pretty hate machine but now with the progress of technology its better and more sophisticated you can tell, that Mr. Reznor hasn't lost his touch and the way of making new music that will influence another bands and will sound so good live, I can tell by my self that this album sounds great live and I truly recommend it at all.br /br /Thank you Mr. Reznor and NINE INCH NAILS! br /
It comes with a DVD November 3, 2008

I must not have noticed but this CD also includes a DVD with six music videos. I wasn't blown away by this CD like many other reviewers were. Trent is trying new things but I can't seem to get into this one. If you're a NIN fan, then buy this but don't expect anything close to Closer or Slipping Away.
