NEW SINGLE: Came Back Haunted

[spahn]

so i guess this track is not getting an official "single" release since it's not assigned a halo.

I don't think official "single" releases exist in Trent's mind, any more. Rob said (talking about HTDA) that the singles would essentially be promotional only, without Sigil numbers. It harkens back to what Interscope would do with the single releases, and why they left a Halo number off of Capital G.

Didn't Trent say he'd not release any more "singles" as far back as 2007?

[butter_hole]

Discipline and Echoplex weren't Halos but we still got to hear them...

[littlemonkey613]

Same with In this Twilight, My Violent Heart and Me, Im Not

I know he expressed some disappointment as to what the singles became from a customer value standpoint, and something to the tune of Interscope just putting them out as basically a cash grab.

I can't imagine he would feel the same about singles pre-Fragile though (I recall the handling of WITT was when he started to have some doubts). Not true singles, but that's why NIN was particularly fucking awesome back in those days, because you got a hell of a lot more than just a single.

The thing is that there's no market for things like that, any more. Plus, he probably doesn't have that sort of material just sitting around, or he isn't interested in commissioning remixes for a single.

I'm perfectly fine with Halos only being LP or EP-length releases, plus live video and whatever.

I cannot believe this hasn't leaked yet. We are usually so good at finding this stuff "mysteriously".

Me too. It seems like radio stations across the country have this and are ready to play it at the exact same time tomorrow. As @Leviathant recently mentioned, DJs shouldn't be trusted. Why hasn't one leaked this to get some reputation points? I wonder if it isn't being distributed to the radio stations until an hour before airtime.

To your last point... it will probably be digitally distributed to them. Thus meaning that NIN can send it out to everyone at the same time with one button and when THEY want to.

But multiple DJs have been saying that they've already heard it...

Excellent point.

.... I'll go Wayne's World 10 minutes back and retract my statement

[BrokenSpiral]

September. So. Far. Away. I can't wait to hear this song but I will surely wear it completely out by September

[pushingreality]

"Hesitation Marks" gets the "Impossible Pain" title rumors out of the way, at least.

[losertron]

Halos are generally (though I may be mistaken) released on a disc format (hence, halo) and this will most likely not receive a dedicated physical copy. So no halo. However there was that Capital G promo... poking holes, leaving hesitation marks. HA.

Don't forget about seeds!
Seed 07, here we come!

Assuming it get's *cough*ed up on TPB? ha.

[gorast]

I mean, it's not really a big deal. How many people would actually be excited to buy a physical copy of this single? What would we expect to be on it? Eighteen remixes that all suck? Put them on Soundcloud.

Speaking of Soundcloud, I wonder if the single will be uploaded and then the download box will be conveniently left checked, Keep it together-style.

So the first single is three months before the album. Any other reason for this than tour dates?

i sure hope there is tour dates to accompany the single tomorrow. i'm really hoping for miami, orlando, tampa stops. road trip with the wife and kids!

How long does physical production usually take?

I can only offer an opinion that this has all happened very fast and TR announced it while things like artwork and the physical release are still being wrapped up?

[NeonChrist]

Well three months after a single is released seems like a pretty standard release schedule to me. It gives the album enough time to gain some hype momentum.

If I remember correctly ETS found the page for radio stations to Download Immigrant Song the night that debuted. It quickly got put on password protected lock down. But it was found.

Exactly, we always get it before some how. Hopefully, when I awake tomorrow there will be a link.

I have been checking.

[snaapz]

I doubt a leak before it hits the airwaves... I'm sure it's exclusive and promo etc... I mean less people will tune in if it's leaked already! Think of how great it would be if you were a sales rep with all these exclusives to add value to the spot.

[allegro]

Man, I wish it was the old days and the world premier of the single was via a video on MTV.
