Last Tuesday, I posted that I got the new Nine Inch Nails single for free through their official website; which by the time I wrote about was no longer available. However, in that same post I tried to make things better between us by letting you know that Coldplay was ALSO giving away their new single for free. Although it was only offered for a short time, I know several of you were able to take advantage of the band's generosity, so yay for you us!
As of today, those of you who missed getting NIN's new single as a free download can now stop sending me angry e-mails, and here's why: NIN IS GIVING AWAY THEIR ENTIRE NEW ALBUM, THE SLIP, FOR FREE! So, take that, angry e-mailers! 
Click HERE to get The Slip in the file format of your choice. That Trent Reznor sure is an accommodating fellow.
In general and as proven by my "I Just Listened To..." section in the right sidebar; my musical taste can be described as maddeningly eclectic and sometimes impossible to predict (even for those who know me best); but I DO know what I like. NIN albums have always been hit or miss for me, either I really like a track or I equate it to a specific kind of torture which involves being forced to listen while someone rips styrofoam slowly and mercilessly inside of my brain. This album is no different. I consider the styrofoam tracks to be numbers 3 ("Letting You") and 10 ("Demon Seed"); and I won't be listening to THOSE ever again if I can help it. There are 8 other tracks on this album though, and those have already been thrown into my current rotation.
For the record, my favorites on The Slip are the sonically polar opposite 1,000,000 and Lights in the Sky (with their new single, Discipline coming in at 3rd!). Thanks for the free tunes, NIN!

You rock!
that is awesome! Thanks for the link. I can't wait to see them in concert in october!
This nugget prompted the Warden to completely get my girl crush. Thanks for the link and a happy Englishman.
@Christy: Even though you're probably already in flight, and on your way to Paris... thanks!
@Andie: You're welcome! Have a great time at the show... I hope there don't play any styrofoam music. :)
@Taj: Can I just say how much I love the fact that anyone reading your comment will likely think it's some kind of code, and they won't realize that your "Englishman" husband isn't really a Warden; and that your girl crush is ME? :) Well, I guess I've just straightened everyone out then, haven't I? Anyway, I'm glad your old man is finally on board with our mutual non-sexual girl crushing. It won't be long before he suggests a non-sexual pillow fight.
I saw this on slickdeals.net last week! Not to mention they also are giving out the high definition 24bit 96khz audio for free as well. If you got the equipment, it sounds KILLER!
