NIN: 2 More Ways To Give Us The Slip

Nine Inch Nails  to offer limited CD/DVD and unlimited vinyl editions of album.

By Blurt Staff

Let's hear it for added value: After offering its latest album, The Slip, as a free download, Nine Inch Nails has prepared two physical releases of the album, both with a price tag.

On July 22 comes a six-panel digipak CD/DVD iteration of The Slip, limited to a scant 250,000 copies (get 'em while they're hot, people) and containing tour rehearsal footage, 24-page booklet--and stickers! Then on August 5, and here's marketing brilliance for ya, they'll unleash an unlimited gatefold 180-gram vinyl version of the album. (Each retails for $24.98.)

Maybe somebody should tell Trent Reznor he has this backwards--or maybe this is just another upside-down, bizarro NIN twist? The mind reels.
