NEW SINGLE: Came Back Haunted

[FernandoDante]

Came Back Haunted sounds a wee bit Strobe Light :P

But yay, new NIN!

I opened this thread just to post the exact same thing.

I mean, it's a COMEBACK track and all.

The article mentioned that it has been half a decade since the SLIP.

What makes me feel weird is that it was half a decade between TDS and Fragile... that felt like a damn eternity

Since the SLIP came out it has definately not felt like eternity. Is time moving faster or does time feel like its moving faster the older you get?

[WorzelG]

I'm wondering if this album will be a 'personal journey' type thing or a concept /story - the title doesn't really give it away, could be either

[BrokenSpiral]

I'm not one to get hung up on song titles and what not. But it does instantly make me think Stone Sour/Corey Taylor.

[Deepvoid]

When someone from radio or a magazine says that it sounds like the first album or something along those lines, it's usually a good indication that it's not gonna sound like the first record.

Well, between The Slip and now we've still had plenty of output from TR. Back in those days, we got one song and a remix album of said song and that was pretty much it.

Well, we had a sountrack album, then an EP, then a sountrack TRIPLE album, then another EP and another album. As opposed to... Tapeworm?

[Fragile Teeth]

My body is not ready. I'm excited but I don't want to get my hopes up too high.

It's age! Time is relative. The percentage of your life that 5 years made up during TDS was much higher than the percentage of your life during The Slip.

[Jadezuki]

It was also roughly a half a decade between Fragile and With Teeth. And at that point it felt like we'd never have new NIN again. It's age, but also there were a good few years of NIN touring in the last five years.

[UninTY]

The level to which news like this consumes my life is a little scary. It verifies that I'm still 16 years old somewhere inside.

Amen to that. Same here.

[GavinCollins420]

I saw that thread on the first page of ETS and I thought the song had been released today. I was so happy!

And then I found out it's going to come out Thursday.

I hate all of you.

Ten times this.

[manik instandin]

Stoked. Can't wait to get my grubby hands on it to remix!

"Time" definitely moves faster the older we get. You don't have the same condensed sense of memories in that 5 year period that you had before. Time is relative to perception. That's why there's no time like the present!

[icklekitty]

I trust someone here will rip the song so we can enjoy it in its low-bitrate shitty goodness until the real thing gets released?

The title sounds crap, but then I thought that about My Violent Heart and that song is delightful.

[hobochic]

Ten times this.

Enjoy the silence, the song might be shitty. Right now it's the best song EVER.

[r_z]

I wonder, who arranged the meeting to discuss calling the comeback song for NINs comeback "came back haunted". Actually, I don't.

MAY have to listen to the actual song first 'though... you know... before going all ETS on this.

Now back to this Aniston movie. See you Thursday.

[BrokenSpiral]

Yeah, it's been awhile since we've had to rely on the shit quality radio rip for a NIN song. So spoiled with the "I made a new song, download it in whatever quality you want" era of NIN.

[jaypayton]

Trent returning to his synth pop roots? perhaps?

I think TR still appreciates a good quality first impression, so I wouldn't be surprised if a high quality download will be available right away.

[DigitalChaos]

I just hope this album has a shitload of energy. Lots of the music coming out lately has been... slow.

[fillow]

Trent returning to his synth pop roots? perhaps?

Didn't you hear? That old geezer from King Crimson is supposedly in it.
Go back to your cave.

[ryanmcfly]

Not only am I excited for the song, I'm also quite excited for the artwork for the single.

What do we know about the artwork so far?

[PhoenixML]

What do we know about the artwork so far?

Rob will do it.

What do we know about the artwork so far?

According to Rob on twitter, it is the polar opposite of the glitch art of Welcome Oblivion and it wasn't done by him.

[joplinpicasso]

I wonder if we'll get to make a corny run-on sentence with all the track titles like that infection With Teeth meme.

Also, it's strange nowadays how we have the single title only days before its release and yet no mention of the album's name. Is this only me?

I love Rob's art, truly, but I'm excited for this.

[sheepdean]

Anyone taking bets on how long it will take jaypayton to say it sucks?

any guesses who did it if it wasn't Rob?
