Nine Inch Nails Get Disciplined

detail from the artwork for 'Discipline,' the new NIN single

Nine Inch Nails fans who remember the days when we waited five years or so between NIN albums must be absolutely losing their shit right now. Over the course of the last five years, we’ve gotten With Teeth, Year Zero, Ghosts I-IV, a live DVD, and tour after tour. And now, Trent Reznor and company have released their latest single, “Discipline,” to radio, and to Internet fans the world over via their official Website. The chorus of the song features the line, “I need your discipline,” but, as longtime fan, I have to say to Mr. Reznor: “No you don’t!” Dude, if you were any more disciplined right now, you’d be Neidermeyer guest-starring in a Twisted Sister video.

Anyway, the single is “teh awesum,” as the kids say. Isn’t that what the kids say? Well, whatever it is the kids say nowadays to describe something wicked cool, that’s what this single is.

And perhaps it’s our first clue about what’s coming in two weeks.
