Perhaps I'm being overly critical, but when you're a synth music pioneer of sorts, it's a disappointment to lapse into this grungy guitar loop blandness.

I like that they're playing up the disco/glam aspect of their music - it's almost a bit like Goldfrapp. It definitely sounds like NIN - but it’s supposed to, right?

A room full of vintage synths and this is all they can do? At least Closer sounded like an original piece of music featuring some synthesizers. This sounds like at least three other recent NIN songs I can think of. I downloaded several of the tracks from the previous album as Garageband projects to try some remixes (good idea, that) but then decided not to after listening to said songs - they're lifeless and boring. Just like this one. NIN needs to ditch the fuzzy guitar loops and get back to the electronica that made it worth listening to. Am I alone in thinking NIN songs like this are annoyingly plain?
