ph0rk Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 http://niggytardust.com/ I haven't seen a thread about this album (here) - I managed to get a free copy before they took them down (after 100,000 downloads) and actually went back to pay $5 for the flac (eat that, radiohead). Disclosure: I was a big nine inch nails fan in the 90's. I'd heard William's "list of demands" prior to NiggyTardust!, and liked it too, though I am not generally a hip hop fan (beastie boys aside). I really like this album. It is probably one of the most interesting albums I've heard since American Edit. It is just, wow. Tremendous respect for Trent's productions skills. Some of the tracks sound very nin-like, others not at all, and it still hangs together well. Has anyone else had a chance to hear this? As a random aside, it also marks the first lossless music that has remained so in my library since the Dorati arrangement of the 1812 festival overture. If apple kicks out an updated nano with ~32GB of space sometime soon I'll have begun going all lossless and I'll never feel the growing pains, woot.

postjack Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Yup, its a sweet ass album. Great lyrics, great flow, bizarre as hell, and very nine inch nail-y. $5 is the exact threshold at which I am willing to spend money for a lossless download. Which of course means $10 for MP3 is out of the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph0rk Posted January 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 we talked about it in the What are you Listening To? thread. not in any way the search engine understands - there was only one hit on "niggytardust" and no discussion within a few pages of it. Trying to hold a discussion in that thread is like trying to hold a conversation in an unthreaded newsgroup Similar results for "Saul Williams". Yup, its a sweet ass album. Great lyrics, great flow, bizarre as hell, and very nine inch nail-y. $5 is the exact threshold at which I am willing to spend money for a lossless download. Which of course means $10 for MP3 is out of the question. Yeah, I find I had no qualms paying the $5 for a lossless copy, and I haven't bought music in ages.

postjack Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Trying to hold a discussion in that thread is like trying to hold a conversation in an unthreaded newsgroup I look at the "what are you listening to..." thread as more like a chatroom. If I step away from it for a while I'm bound to miss out on several pages of headcase antics and tomfoolery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
