NIN's Hesitation Marks Is Out!

Nine Inch Nails' (NIN) long awaited comeback album, Hesitation Marks, is out and available on iTunes. I've got a copy and it really is a brilliant album. While there are theories that Hesitation Marks is a companion to NIN's The Downward Spiral, don't expect to hear anything similar on the new record.

Musically, there isn't anything that ties the two albums together, which shouldn't come as a surprise to NIN fans (no two albums sound the same). If there are any similarities, it is perhaps in the lyrics and the narration of the album although Reznor's outlook on Hesitation Marks is a lot less bleak than it was on The Downward Spiral. It is almost as though Hesitation Marks is the story that follows The Downward Spiral.
