Musicland now has a notice up in their stores stating that the new NIN album is coming out on Feb. 24, along with the Marylin Manson live video coming out on Feb. 10, but you already new that. -Randy Forsman
and finally.. According to a friend of mine that works for an entertainment retailer, Nothing records has announced April 28 as the release date for the upcoming NIN album. I'm sure you already have a ton of info about that, if not, hope this helps.

"The new NIN album is scheduled for release 4/28 per the Nothing Records. No details as of yet."

rebirth
rebirth-338, a software synthesizer and drum machine, has some interesting news: Rebirth-338. KNow what it is? A software based synthesizer... Really really good one at that. You can look at it at www.propellerheads.se. So what does this have to do with NIN? Well, I was posting on the official message board when Fredrik (one of the fantastically nice programmers at the propellerheads) mentions an official modification from my "favorite band". And now, in his .plan file sayz :

"We've got somethNINg really nasty and green coming. Are we going industrial or what?"

Yum yum :) There's some info you're not likely to hear from any other source, considering ReBirth is made primarily for Acid House music, except for all of these modifications they're so nicely allowing us public folks to do...

i have been super-busy these past days, part of the time going to (seriously) work on the nothing records pages. we're finalizing the artwork. i dont update these pages daily because a. there's not really daily news. b. not much important news goes on continuously. c. i dont have time to.
