NIN is working the road behindhand "The Slip," a full-length album that bandleader Trent Reznor self-released for discharge via the Internet in May. The downloadable version of the set is still available at NIN's website, and a physical configuration surfaced last month in the form of 250,000 individually numbered digipaks housing an audio CD of the album and a live DVD featuring footage of the group rehearsing five songs for its 2008 tour.
A vinyl interlingual rendition of the album, featuring the record's 11 tracks on 180-gram vinyl with a 24-page booklet, hit stores in the US and Canada last week.
As of last month, "The Slip" had been downloaded 1.6 million times worldwide since its May 5 outlet, according to a press release.
Joining frontman and sole fulltime NIN extremity Reznor on the current tour ar guitarist Robin Finck, keyboardist Alessandro Cortini, drummer Josh Freese and bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen. Aside from Meldal-Johnsen--best known for his work with Beck--all have played with the band in the past, with Cortini and Freese having participated in the band's 2005 and 2006 world tours, and Finck a ex-serviceman of the band's tours behind 1994's "Downward Spiral" and 1999's "The Fragile."
"The Slip" follows NIN's surprise March handout, "Ghosts I-IV," a four-disc, 36-track instrumental collection. The first of the album's four volumes can be downloaded free from NIN's website, and fans have the option of paid $5 for the other three volumes. The collection was also offered in a variety of configurations ranging from $10 for a physical double-CD mark to $300 for an "ultra-deluxe circumscribed edition" that sold taboo within in the number one two days of the album's release.
