iTunes Review

In Trent Reznor’s world 2022 is Year Zero, not the year Social Security comes crashing down, but something more paranoid, angry and ominous, when drugs are filtered into the water supply to protect against a terrorist attack and mass consciousness comes dangerously unhinged. 1984 comes 38 years late. The concept fuels Reznor’s rage, and tracks such as “Survivalism” and “Capital G” feed on the difficult events of the new millennium, but he also understands that preaching to the converted isn’t the only reason he’s held onto his audience. His adventures into sound range among the moody, atmospheric funk of “The Good Soldier” and “Vessel,” the sonically enhanced garage-rock swagger of “Capital G,” and the more expected rampages of “Survivalism” and “My Violent Heart.” Throughout, Reznor knows the value of a consistent groove and a jarring electric outburst. He seamlessly weaves these tracks into a long, continuous journey to the end of civilization.

Amazing Concept Album

You will need to listen to this album a few times over to get and it will grow on you with time. A few tracks you can dance to and some you can . . . well do other things to. Trent Reznor continues to blaze new trails and this time gives us something more to think about.

Wow! Something new and different!

I knew this album was going to be amazing! For those wondering how "Year Zero" stacks up against "With Teeth": This is a more socially-driven, extroverted and polished album. This album also feels much more complete. And while I have trouble listening through the whole "With Teeth" album at one time (possibly because the tracks don't necessarily feel very "connected"), "Year Zero" is the kind of album that you'll love to listen to the whole way through. Fans of the industrial side of nine inch nails will not be disappointed either :-) Please do yourself a favour and don't just download a few of the songs.. get them all. You'll be missing out if you don't!

Year Zero

Absolutely incredible album. Easily the strongest NIN release in years. The production on this album is unbelievable, with so many subtleties, and nuances that take multiple listenings to fully comprehend. The message as well, is the point of the entire release, and is executed flawlessly in the way that only NIN can. Cant wait for part 2!

Nine Inch Nails were the most popular industrial group ever and were largely responsible for bringing the music to a mass audience. It isn't really accurate to call NIN a group; the only official member is singer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Trent Reznor, who always remained solely responsible for NIN's musical direction (he was, however, supported in concert by a regular backing band). Unlike the vast majority of industrial artists, Reznor wrote melodic, traditionally structured songs where lyrics...
