Trent Loves Music AgainJuly 25, 2008 M. Lapin(Chicago, IL USA) This is the first NIN album I've enjoyed the entire way through since Downward Spiral. You can tell from listening that Trent once again enjoys making music and no longer feels trapped by the expectations of fans, his label, or even himself. From someone who generally doesn't care for instrumental music, this album is definitely worth a listen.
Every Track is a DelightJune 4, 2008 Gracie Houston(Santa Cruz, California) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was a quick release with Trent Reznor releasing last year the political Year Zero. Oftentimes when bands come out so fast with another record they wind up wishing they hadn't, but that's not the case here. Trent Reznor left the record company he'd been with for a very long time to do his own thing. And doing his own thing is what he did here, putting out thirty-six tracks on four discs
The mood is very ambient with melodic piano compositions, then going into his typical industrial jams that you are used to with Trent and Nine Inch Nails. Due to it's length the "big" moments are scattered throughout the album, making it one you have to listen to a lot to truly get it, but it's so good, you won't mind.
Trent does what he does best with obscure lyrics and electronic sounds that are weird, but interesting. He has put out great music over many years now and this album will not disappoint any Nine Inch Nails fan.
Made for the moviesApril 9, 2008 Charles E. Reimer(Summerville, SC) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I purchased the disital download of this album fully aware that it was an instrumental album, and that there would likely be nothing I would ever hear on mainstream radio.
That being said, I really enjoyed this album. It uses a lot of the same counterpoint style of composition that Trent Reznor really started using heavily during "The Fragile". It is a good study in how classical training can be used in other forms of music.
Many of these tracks would be wonderful in movies (such as the heavy use of NIN's music in "Man On Fire"). There is a certain quality to the way the music is layered and many of the peices build to a very pleasant climax.
If you enjoy NIN for the music between the hits, you will love this album.

Simply amazing, it seems that Trent is going back to his roots. This record sounds a lot more deep then Year Zero or even With Teeth. It's Awesome, a Nine Inch Nails instrumental album is some what a dream come true.
