Hi Res (just changed the parameters in the URL): http://a5.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Music2...00x1200-75.jpg

EDIT: For those looking for the iTunes listing, here it is (from the NIN Hotline post): https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/he...on/id655150306

I was really hoping for something fresh and different. Oh well... Maybe the rest of the tracks are more exciting? I'd like to hope so, but at this point I'm not expecting too much.

hey guys can tou find the album artwork in a good resolution?

[jesus]

hahahahahha forget it... thanx a lot

[rhet]

I'm just so relieved that I don't hate it. I don't expect any of his new stuff to have the same impact as the albums I fell in love with originally but HTDA really rubs me the wrong way (the name being cheesy as fuck and doesn't help) so it's nice to enjoy the new single and I'm sure it'll grow on me. Psyched rather than slightly anxious about the rest of the tracks now!

I also want something a little more from him (phrased terribly), but at this point, this is fresh enough. First new NIN in what feels like forever, too...kinda wild we're here again. I have some pretty good faith in for what else he's got prepped. This track doesn't scream single as much as Discipline or Capital G... It's darker...also more than Survivalism. Hey, I guess this song isn't that bad! lol It sounds like badass driving music, too.

It sounds "thicker" the more I listen to it. I'm glad it doesn't really sound like any other NIN albums (despite the trademark motifs), because that's the point of NIN, really. If I wanted to listen to the same old shit every album, I can go and listen to every other band on the planet. On the surface it sounds really young, but then it sounds like all that Field Day stuff being shown how to do it better. Maybe it's hipster music I can finally get on board with. On a base level, NIN are basically a cheesy little synthpop band with an overactive libido, and this song definitely makes me want to take drugs and have an orgy with the cast of Party Monster.

Historically, the first single from a NIN album has been a bit of a bleh precursor to an album of waves and crests. This doesn't bother me.

[jesus]

pre-order of the album at nin.com made avliable...

[jesus]

what is the quality of "came back haunted" pre-ordering the album?

[fillow]

new logo = the fragile + the slip
art = tds + something from bleedthrough (the blue pic from tumblr)
new song lyrics = filled with tons of references to past lyrics and past events.
this can't be not intentional.

[Ruttiger]

9/3/13? (soon)

[icklekitty]

Oh shit I forgot about this. So, one of everything and then see what regional variations come out? God, that womens shirt is hideous.

[jesus]

anyone else thinks that all this was revealed too early?

[halo33]

I think I like the artwork more than single...

for now...

The sounds he used are great. Lyrics are typical. I like that its not the Only/Discipline disco beat.
I am very excited of course. 6 tour dates at least for me.

[snaapz]

This song triggers something that makes me want to play old 1994 PC games..

[tremolo]

Fuck.


I listened to the song last night and went to bed with a boner. Woke up to listen to it again and I find a longer version! And now tour dates, presale dates, single artwork, album artwork...


Great times for NIN fans!

[spahn]

video up on nin.com. also, nin.com got a whole makeover

[DVYDRNS]

So the song doesn't sound any thing like older nin . It sounds like the hand that feeds with less guitars.

That is fine. I'm going to hope that this is the safe album single that Columbia was hoping for and the album will really take it back to some deeper vibes.

Question to all the naysayers: You expected a record that sounds like TF or TDS but are still complaining about a single that carries sounds not only from TF and TDS but also from every other NIN LP? I don't get it.

The loops gotta close amiright

I've heard a rumour that there are tools that can rip youtube videos, and it's also whispered quietly in the shadows that the 1080p youtube vid has the song at ~191kbps/AAC (vs. 128kbps MP3 for the soundcloud version). There are also tools that can repack the sound track from an MP4 (such as, say, spat out by a youtube-ripper) into something more PMP/iPod friendly, without quality loss.

Thanks for the help! I ended up preordering the vinyl and got the track through the site as a download

if it's supplied the way i suspect, the version on VEVO is transcoded from a higher res. AAC, which was created from something lossless. fyi.

not that it matters now the track is more generally available!

Or FLAC or apple lossless, the usual.
