The Slip
Trent Reznor, you spoil us. Only two months since his last bout of goth generosity, the Dark Lord is treating us to a second free LP downloadable from Nine Inch Nails’ website. Unlike the instrumental ‘Ghosts I-IV’ released in March, where only the first eight tracks were free, Reznor is giving away the whole of ‘The Slip’ gratis, relying on an eventual physical release to generate...

Nine Inch Nails - The Slip: Wikipedia Album Entry
The Slip (also known as Halo 27) is the eighth major studio release by American Industrial rock act Nine Inch Nails. The album was released free of charge on May 5, 2008 via digital download on the official Nine Inch Nails website.
The album was released on CD in the United States and Canada on July 22, 2008. The album was released as a six-panel digipack which contained (in addition to the album itself) a 24 page booklet, a sticker pack, and a DVD with live performances of 1,000,000, Letting You, Discipline, Echoplex, and Head Down. This package was limited to 250,000 numbered units worldwide
The album was made available without any prior notice or advertisement, and in a similar fashion as the band's previous release, Ghosts I–IV, released two months earlier. The album was produced by Trent Reznor alongside Atticus Ross and Alan Moulder. The album features vocals and traditional song structures, unlike its 2008 counterpart Ghosts I-IV.
Much like Ghosts I-IV, the album was released under a Creative Commons license, allowing fans to remix and reuse all or part of the album non-commercially. A tour for the album, entitled "Lights in the Sky 2008", begins in late July and will take place over most of North America and South America.

Nine Inch Nails - The Slip Lyrics
Nine Inch Nails - Letting You Lyrics
The sky is painted black
The smoke pours out the stack
One hand upon your heart
One hand behind your back
Nine Inch Nails - Head Down Lyrics
You
What you looking at?
Head down
Too late for that
Nine Inch Nails - 1,000,000 Lyrics
Kind of hard
Hard to see
When you crawl
On your hands and your knees
Nine Inch Nails - Demon Seed Lyrics
1
It keeps growing
And i can feel it breathe
I have been trying
Nine Inch Nails - Discipline Lyrics
Am I
Am I still tough enough?
Feels like I'm wearing down (down down down down)
Is my viciousness losing ground (ground ground ground ground)
Nine Inch Nails - Lights In The Sky Lyrics
Sheâs mostly gone, some other place.
Iâm getting by, in other ways.
Everything they whispered in our ear,
Is coming true.
Nine Inch Nails - Echoplex Lyrics
nice and high and far apart
just like they said
i built this place with broken parts
just like they said
