You haven't listened to the latest stuff. Its a totally different sound than the "more popular" tracks on the mid 90's and even the the later stuff. It's hard for me to even imagine a band that has EVOLVED in sound as much as NIN has. There are MANY music critics who agree.

The Downward Spiral era: 1994 - 1998 sounds much different than The With Teeth era: 2005 - 2007 and almost nothing like the the new Zero Year era stuff.  You clearly don't know what you are talking about. You may have grown tired of the electronic sound. But it has definately not stagnated or "come and gone." I think your comments may be based on most of the sounds from The Fragile era: 1999 - 2004. In that case, I can somewhat agree...

Its been a pleasure informing you.

I just listened to "Survivalism" off the new stuff and I'm not trying to be a dick but it sound the same as any other NIN I've heard. maybe i'm missing something I dunno

I was very disappointed with this track. I guess they selected it because they thought the mainstream public would accept it better. It's not really a step forward...

Check this site out.  http://symphonyofnoise.com/nails/yearzero/  It's a compilation of tracks Trent has "leaked" to the fans who have been following the secret pages and stuff.

#6 is amazing and very unique. It really gets into gear at about 40% completion. I also liked #8 a lot.

Perhaps you aren't a true fan of this genre. It's definatly an acquired taste. It has also cooled off in popularity recently. It's not "new" or "shocking" anymore. I get the distinct feeling Trent would rather pack up and retire for good before he let his work stagnate or stop evolving. It's not about money anymore. It's about the message. Why do you think he's giving it away...

<-- worth watching (from original post)

Maynard and Trent are two of the most important artists of our time.

Tool is good music.

PS  all music is equally important.

a 7 year old girl thinks Drake Bell is just as important as you think Trent is. It's all relevant

Ya you're right. Drake Bell wants to change society with his message. He's also giving away his music so that more hear the message.

If you compare the two again, I'll cut you.....deep. :D

You missed the point.

From what I know of NIN, Trent is a pretty miserable dude, is this the IMPORTANT MESSAGE you speak of? and how is it more important than Drake Bell making teeny-boppers happy?
