Has anyone heard it yet? The album cover alone is worth the money:

On a side note I can't fucking stand leet speak :mad: Why can't people write normally
I think he did it on purpose to fuck with interscope - it just seems like something he'd do. I usually hate leet speak too, but it kind of fits here I think.
In any case, good album - worth getting/hearing. A lot of the tracks are at least as good as the original. The remix for Me I'm Not is quite er controversial though - it might be termed minimalistic. I like Capital G, Vessel, Gunshots by Computer (its listed as Guns by computer), and My Violent Heart. I like most of the tracks, but not really the remix of The Great Destroyer.

Dublin, 23/08/2006 = Lifechanging! X D
Katowice, 13/06/2007 = Phenomenal = )
London, 18/06/2007 = Pretty darn sweet = )
London Poster Wanted, PM if you have one for sale = )
as for puscifer how is that? a tell tale sign of an album being shitty is used cd stores. a week into its release there were like 9 copies in this one store....
I don't like it too much. it's ok but not phenomenal. Definately weird enough to be enjoyed but too satirical to be taken even remotely seriously. If I wasn't a huge tool/maynard fan I would have left it alone
I bought it when i pre-ordered r3m1x3d and part of me wishes I'd saved my money.

I think all the CD copies include the DVD. What is on the DVD is the individual tracks from the various songs, together with software called I think, Ableton, enabling those who are so inclined, to do some Year Zero remixing of their own.

It's kind of a question of perspective. The remix is pretty good, in a kind of Richie Hawton/Plastikman(people should check these out, especially if they are stoners) perspective. I think everyone who remixed the tracks got carte blanche to do what they wanted. The problem is that everyone else kind of stayed within specific boundaries, so the album flows quite well until you get to that track. Given that its 14 minutes long, I think Trent fully supports it.
My favourite tracks after a few listens are The great Destroyer, The beginning of the end(I saw ladytron support NIN a few times on the last tour), and in thsi twilight - but in that case it may just be because it's an amazing song...
So the short answer is - yes I have skipped the big long boring track, but I "get it".
