Yeah the ablum is really good.

 

[Jean D]

I wish I was special enough to have heard the album. Or maybe Im just too lazy to "search" for it. Ive preordered the dual disc though. I cant wait.

 

[Tony-B]

Well, release day is like less than 2 weeks away. Maybe you should just wait to hear it. You really don't have to worry about the album sucking because so far the unanimous opinion is that it's great.

But then again, maybe you should try "finding" it.

 

[Jean D]

I have finally heard the album, yes its quite good, but I think Im partial to the Fragile. "Everyday Is Exactly The Same" is a great song, cant wait to get my dual disc to hear this in surround sound. This album seems stripped down, less harsh, more up-beat. It will grow on me just as the Fragile did.

 

[Martin Rendall]

Just listening to it now. Very nice! I can't wait to get the dualie.

Martin.

Sounds pretty good.

 

[dan fritzen]

you mean sounds good minus the CD skips?

 

[John Garcia]

So we'll have DD on the 3rd, what about an SACD? Still day and date?

 

[Kris Deering]

No SACD release this time around. There are rumours that the UK may get a SACD release, probably because of the late Dualdisc start over there, but no SACD here in the US.

I would almost bet that sales influenced it. With the SACD of TDS costing over twice as much, the sales compared to the Dualdisc probably sucked.

 

[John Garcia]

That kind of sucks, but I'm buying it anyway and it looks like I'll be getting the DD. Listened to it earlier today - a little different than previous stuff, but sounds pretty good. I liked some of the tracks on the first listen through, but nothing really seemed to stand out.

I had to search around for it when it came out, but I bought the SACD of TDS

 

[AricB]

part of the problem, was likely where to find the sacd, Dual's were stocked at lots of BB's in cd section, but SACD's not as often, mostly in that barren wasteland they call a high res section....

i bought both, BTW.

I'm still looking forward to WT, but most of the mp3's i've got my ears on, were of songs, that weren't all that impressive, and I am a huge fan of just about everything prior? not sure what that means.

 

[Steve Felix]

I don't think this is the towering achievement that The Fragile is, but most of it is still pretty brilliant. When he pulls out all the stops, I can't think of anyone else in the world who rocks harder while remaining coherent.

I cannot WAIT to shake the walls with the end of "Sunspots" in 5.1.

"Beside You in Time" is the most original song here, I'd say, and possibly the best. The album as a whole has taken me a few listens to get into (while TF grabbed me immediately), but I'm warming up to it in a big way.

 

[Kris Deering]

I think WT is a phenominal CD. When I first listened to it "All the Love in the World", "Everyday is Exactly the Same", "Beside You in Time" and "Right Where it Belongs" all floored me and had me hooked. I have grown to love Sunspots and Only and I really think the only weak track on the entire album is Getting Smaller.

I can't wait to hear the whole thing in 5.1, especially Besides you in Time. That could possibly be the best surround song ever.





Really??? I had the opposite experience. Every place I went had tons of the SACD but no Dualdiscs. I bought both of course but I went to like 7 stores before I found the DD. Seems I wasn't alone based on all the posts at the NIN forums.

 

[John Garcia]

I found plenty of the DD on the release date and bought it because there were no SACDs. The kuckleheads at Best Buy didn't even know what an SACD was...:rolleyes, but I got a raincheck and got the discounted release date price for the SACD (the only reason I went there looking for it) when they eventually got some in. I didn't have a problem finding the SACD, it's just that I wasn't going to pay $32 for it at Tower when I could get it for $19 at BB.

 

[Steve Felix]

Hmm... you're right.

 

[Martin Rendall]

NO SACD == SALE ANYWAY. How can I stay away from this in 5.1?

Martin.

 

[Jean D]

I only have a DVD-A player, no SACD for me. it sucks too cause I want DSOTM and TDS. But I picked up the DD of TDS off of John Garcia,.... Thanks again! One of my fav's. Yeah, I cant wait to hear With Teeth in Surround. I think it may help me to grow fonder of WT. So far I like "Everyday is Exactly the Same" and "All the Love In The World" as well as "THe Hand that Feeds"

 

[AricB]

funny cause getting smaller and line begins to blur are all i've heard so far... hopefully your right Kris.

Yeah, our BB's around here are doing pretty good with DD's, but sacd's are all but vanishing at our stores...
