Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler With Teeth - NIN - in torrents today

i'm currently burning it. it's the full album.

try downloading it if you're that curious. the torrent with RNS written in it seems to be the highest quality one so far.

have fun

my first impressions are that it is a good album. it's much better than i thought it would be, as i thought it would suck

i'll be buying it in dvd-a when it's released may 3rd.

I'm getting it on DVD-A when it comes out. I have heard a couple of tracks, but I've waited this long, so I'll wait another 11 days to hear the whole thing on CD.

Eh, some of the songs are better than I was expecting, but I'm still not in love with it. At least not yet. I'm buying it (the DD version), sure, and I'll give it a few runs. But the good to meh song ratio is pretty low on first playthrough for me.

Here's hoping I warm up to it!

There are a couple of tracks on the Best Buy site that I have listened to. I expect that it will take a couple listens and will grow on you. Most albums that don't burn out quickly do, and I still listen to all his old stuff. 4 of the 6 CD's in my car changer right now are NIN. (A perfect circle and RAGE are the others).

Joe,

I agree with you, there are a about 5 or 6 tracks that i skip. but i quite like the ones that i like.

i'll buy it in dvd-a on may 3.

is it just me, or would sunspots be an awesome song if there wasn't that wailing blender vaccuum sound?!

Yah, Sunspots would be better if the 'arrangement' were reworked a little. Indeed, I could probably say that about a few of the songs I don't like.

My initial reaction is that the album opens and closes relatively strongly, with a lot of the weaker material mixed in the middle. Not a 100% accurate description, but my general sense. I started out impressed, got bored, then my ears perked up again.

I'll also get the DVD-A version because there's no reason not to (preorder price is the same as the redbook, so I imagine that will hold true one it's out). I listen to it a couple of times before coming to any conclusions...

Joe,

i got the same feeling. the first two and last two tracks are some of the strongest. the song with teeth has also grown on me a lot. i also like only

On second thought...skip this. Whoever put it up there did...as in album is full of skips in the playback that is provided. I tried to listen to the beginning and felt I was just ruining my experience. I'll wait another week.
