NiggyTardust! Yay?

"Big news today!

As many of you know, I've been working closely with Saul Williams on his new record. We've spent many hours together in hotel rooms, busses, backstages and studios around the world working on something we knew was great. This is the most involved I've been with any project outside NIN since Antichrist Superstar, and I've been impatiently waiting for the chance for you to hear it.
Well... guess what?
The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust! has arrived!
After my own recent dealings with record labels we decided to release it directly to you. Head over to www.niggytardust.com for all the details. Register now and you can download the record November 1st.
Working on this project was a real pleasure. Saul was interested in breaking boundaries / crossing genres / defying expectations and we learned a great deal from one another in the process. When asked about the sound of the record, I've had to resort to "... I really don't know HOW to describe it." That's a good thing more than ever these days.

A word on the way we've chosen to release this.
There are obvious similarities in how Radiohead just released their new record and the way we've chosen to. After thinking about this way too much, I feel we've improved upon their idea in a few profound ways that benefit you, the consumer. You obviously will be the judge of this in the end. One thing that IS very different in our situation is that Saul's not the household name (yet!) that Radiohead is, and that means we need your support on this more than ever. If you like what you hear, spread the word.

I hope you enjoy the music,

TR

Help spread the word: DIGG this!

Oh man, I've been waiting for this. Williams and Reznor are two fantastic artists and their collaboration work is going to make homo-erotic sex to my eardrums. ;(

I've never heard Saul's stuff, so I signed up for the download since it was free. =D

***UPDATE:

Enjoy!

I chose the free version. I'm such a horrible person.  

[Greer Lion]

This album is fantastic. Maybe not as good as the first two (maybe) but still fantastic. I'm glad Saul feels good about it, and I think the Industrialesque Hip-Hop blend is really covering something different musically. The choice to focus on beat instead of lyrics was a minor disappointment, but I still think it's great. I definately suggest Amethyst Rock Star to those who dig this one; that album is incredible.

I really really like the cd......i was surprised, before i normally dont like Saul but with this cd i actually like it....alot....lol  

[DioRte]

It's not bad. I'm not much interested in any sort of hip hop music or anything of the sorts, but there are few exceptions. This is one of them. It's definitely not one of my favorites, but it's something I'll listen to o.o  

[Easy Listening Nightmares]

I finally listened this album, And HOLY ********' s**t.

You get the point.

Saul, damn. Some good stuff.
His take on "Sunday Bloody Sunday" was very moving.
And "Break" was great too. I loved trent chiming in for the chorus, it brought out the anger in the song.
