It seems like Trent Reznor & Co. at NIN enjoyed their experiment releasing the single ‘Discipline’ for free on the interwebs (as I mentioned a few weeks ago), because they went ahead and released the whole album for free this week.

‘The Slip‘ is available in a variety of audio formats completely free of charge.  Multitrack audio files (for remixing) are also available and a traditional physical media release will happen in July.

Two awesome things about the album:

1. It’s released under a Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share-Alike license so it can be shared and remixed freely.
2. The digital downloads include unique album art and lyrics for each song (which, of course, can be seen on the iPhone).

So far the album hasn’t grabbed me like ‘Year Zero’ or ‘Ghosts I-IV’ did but I’ll give it some time to absorb.
