Actually, the Macintosh file is a version of The Hand That Feeds converted to Garageband format, which is a Mac program that allows multi-track instrumental and MIDI recording. Basically, it's a program to record music, and a pretty damed good one, considering the price/ease of use.

So basically, they allow you to mess around with the different tracks of that song and make your own remixes and even add your own parts.

Man, that's pretty cool.

One week and six days until the release of With Teeth. I better start my pre-release binge of NIN material pretty soon.

Sucks, though, on the day the album is released I have a big test that will keep me on campus until 5 PM, and then at 6:30 I have to go to some stupid meeting. I'm either going to have skip school or just downright run to the store in between those two things.

Man, that sucks. I'll probably just send my mom out with the money to buy it when I'm at school or something :p

[QUOTE=madeyadams]Skip school. School is gh3y.

NIN = more important than school.[/QUOTE]
So true...

I also have a **** final exam on May 3rd which sucks because the night before instead of studying I'm going to be out at the "With Teeth release party". Kage, what school to you go to?

I know this has nothing to do with NIN but I'm just curious.

I cannot wait for this album!!! I've heard a lot of the leaks and they sound great. I really can't wait for Right Where it Belongs

The reviews of this album have me really excited. Most describe it as an updated Pretty Hate Machine era NIN album.

I cannot wait for May 3rd. Especially because I get to see NIN the next day!

*high fives self*

It is alot like PHM imo.

I agree, it's more like PHM than TDS or TF.

May 3rd? It comes out on May 2nd in England :confused:. I thought it would be released in American first

Nah, we don't get releases until a day after the UK...Thats why Tuesdays are my favorite day of the week..heh.

It doesn't sound like PHM at all from when I heard it. Maybe I need to hear it a few more times, though.

@misunderstood I go to Clear Lake High School. It'll be a longshot that you've ever heard of it, though. :)

Well it's easy on your ears. Lots of mellow-ish songs, not so much of your 'god is dead, no-one cares' type Nin... (now talks like he is well versed in Nin :cool: ) Thats why i think it can be compared to PHM, it's kind of pop-ish really, and PHM is considered pop-ish by many people.

Yea the new album seems to have a really more pop directed influence, but hey, if he can make pop music good then fair ****s! And if anyone says, "The new albums **** cause its popular and mainstream" can they please kill themselves for my benefit? :D

Heh, no haven't heard of it...For some reason I thought you were in college though.

None of you believed me when I said what the file was?

I don't recall you saying what it was... sorry :D

Yeah, I can see that, but when I listened to it I didn't get a PHM vibe or feel or anything like that at all.

We shall see come May 3rd, though.

Did you know Reznor is putting the parts of the hand that feeds to the public so they can modify the song.

Yes

I think is a good idea, but i really like the hand that feeds, i think is more for the people who didn't like the song.

Some dude on manson USA did a remix of THTF, a dance one, i don't think it's appropriate to post but it was darn cool. How is reznor giving people the parts? All the original bit's before they were mixed?

There's also a Country version.

Heh. A country version... :amaze:

So where can I listen to these things?

Courtesy of sharkey from MMusa, it may have somehting to do with idolside (whatever that is) too [url]http://www.idoliside.org.uk/[/url] i think :confused: Anways i yoinked the link for you download from the top link :) The snare is slightly crazy, but i liked it...and his backing vocals are cool. I've heard him do coma white by manson with just a piano, was good.

Thanks alot! :thumb:

By the way, I actually just found this other page where they have quite a few mixes...there's even one combined with britney's "Toxic"... :upset:

I know clear lake....but im also from H-town so there ya go...

I'm also from Houston...i just moved there about a year ago so i'm not very familiar with schools around there..

Ok guys, I went to a second hand stall at the markets today, and there was Broken by NIN. Is this some kind of rarity? I didn't buy it, but hey if it's rare then I can brag about seing it.

This may be old knew (and if it is I apologies) but Trent Reznor has already started writing the follow up to With Teeth

^^Yeah, I read some interview where he mentioned that he already had some stuff for another album and he was going to continue working on it alot more once they're done touring/promoting "With Teeth"..He said he didn't want to make us wait another five or six years. That's good news.

yeah, so, With Teeth was a big letdown.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]yeah, so, With Teeth was a big letdown.[/QUOTE]
:( Don't confuse me anymore! I have heard such mixed opinions on this album :upset:

I've heard so many things about this album also. I'm just going to blow it all off and wait to hear it for myself. I'll form my own opinion.

"With Teeth" is awesome. The only song I don't really like on it is the title track because the chorus is like "Withah Teeth-ah"..it annoys me. But that's about it. "Everything is Exactly the Same" starts off like a Radiohead song imo.

Anywhos. I'll be buying this.

I'm not even listening to any of these pre-release reviews. I'll wait to buy my copy on the third. Until then, I'm very optimistic about it.

I'm fairly optimistic myself about this new release. Sounds like it'll be a good one.

I'm buying it...awesome band, awesome album...at least from the songs I've heard and the teaser on the site

[QUOTE=madeyadams]Hey guys! Breaking news!!

I found OFFICIAL streams for 4 songs that are on With Teeth. They're full songs.. none of that 30 second sample crap. Check them out!
