It's more than additional tracks, but not much more. Seriously, all you'll notice is that certain parts drag out longer, that's it. Nothing terribly interesting.

I like the clean intro of Pilgrimage on vinyl.
I'm not sure why, but I would like for someone to make a mash-up of All Time Low and I'm Afraid of Americans and call it "I'm afraid of all-time American lows".
Congrats! I find it fascinating how Trent is so relevant in the ever so changing times. I wrote a 2 page section on the indie business model that Trent adopted with Ghosts and The Slip for my major labels vs. indie labels in my global business class over the summer.
Total random thought: I wonder if Trent watches QVC? If so, I wonder if he had ever said, "Mariqueen, I have to have that Today's Special Value!"
I was just listening to Purest Feeling again, and it really like how the influences from Ministry's With Sympathy and Twitch shine on that album. I'm also amazed at how it sounds, because it's sometimes as if I forget that there ever was a Purest Feeling.
I'm watching lots of live stuff, both pro-shot and fan-made. Just finished ZootZap's excellent Wiltern DVD. Next up in my watchlist are the HTDA Coachella webcast from RITC, Fuji Rock's webcast, Kercyx's Rock en Seine multi-cam DVD and the official Tension vid to top it off.
i'm not sure if you're talking about the Purest Feeling song or the demos bootleg, but OMG, i just downloaded and started listening to the bootleg and realized that i may have never heard the whole thing before.
EDIT: OMG! i'm actually enjoying listening to Kinda I Want To!

Honestly, I'd like to hear modernized versions of That's What I Get and Maybe Just Once at some point on this tour. If Trent's revisiting older material, it'd be neat to see Trent pick up the old tracks again. I also like Kinda I Want To but we know that's never happening. XD
Trent seems to be a big fan of the bearded look, but whenever official promo/press/tour stuff starts he goes back to clean-shaven. Wonder why.
I saw JMJ playing with Paramore during the Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden. (There was a live stream)
It was cool, but weird.
Come to think of it, NIN has some ties to Paramore and it's pretty weird. Josh Freese and Ilan Rubin both played with them live, the latter also being on their new record. JMJ played with them and also produced their new record. How long before Trent and Hayley do a duet of Hurt? I would enjoy this very much.

There was a live stream? Fuck. Is it up somewhere?
AVOTT is really fun to play on acoustic guitar. Although a bitch to learn.
Some more 10 Miles High trivia from that interview posted above:
ofredearth: I noticed on the 10 Miles high (version) off of Things Falling Apart, the intro to the song is also on The Fragile, actually played backwards where we hear "I'm getting closer..." what was the purpose of "hiding" it into The Fragile like that and exposing it in the new album?
10 Miles High was a full song that had three completely different sets of lyrics and choruses during the course of its life span. When it came time to put the Fragile together, and decide what was gonna get kept, that song took a bullet. But we left a little reminder of it on there, and we put one of the versions on the vinyl version of The Fragile. There are other versions with varying degrees of embarrassing lyrics that are floating around the vaults here.
wait, what? the end of TMHBM has most of the intro to 10MH off the single. you can't just stick it in between in iTunes, it'll repeat the whole section. and TNF crossfades out the end of "Complication," which iTunes can't do correctly on its own.
and the end of LM is completely different with the other vocal samples and different-ish crossfade with TGB. you'd be surprised how many things are different if you pay attention the whole way through.
I read that chat and there was a big omen of what was to happen (TSN and TGWTDT). Ten years was an accurate estimate:
dirtwormus: Would you ever want to be involved in the film industry in a greater capacity than your involvement with Lost Highway? Very much so. I plan to eventually put an end to NIN and move more into film scoring and production work. And that will happen when I feel I've said all I need to say as NIN. And that could be next year or in ten years.
Came Back Haunted is my favorite NIN single. I think. I'm not getting tired of it.
Wait one fucking second.
ninwiki is telling me that the lyrics of The Only Time are "I want to rip it up and swim in it until I drown" and not "I want to wrap it up and swim in it until I drown". Could this be true? Am I insane? This changes everything!
There is nothing as wonderful as Robin's "dancing".
OK, I’m not hiring you to write my dreams.
By whatever algorithm determines Spotify’s rankings, Copy of A is more popular right now than THTF, and there are four HM tracks crowding out HLAH:
Everything had been hanging on at #10, but it lost its grip.01 Closer
02 Copy of a
03 The Hand That Feeds
04 Came Back Haunted
05 All Time Low
06 Find My Way
07 Head Like a Hole
08 Satellite
09 Disappointed

Dead Souls at #10? That's interesting.
