If you got the vinyl can't you just plug something in your amp to record from the headphones jack ?Originally Posted by sonic_discord
I don't know what's up with the delay on Deezer on each of these releases, I guess they don't have the money to pay for the earliest release time like the others. Break the monopoly, don't use spotifty-apple-amazon-whatever.

If anyone is able to provide hi-res scans of the booklet/story that would be excellent.
Unintelligible Whispering
Pinion/Stupid Panties live

'NOTHING EVER ENDS' off of WATCHMEN: VOL 3 could TOTALLY be a track for Quake, and this makes me very happy!
The breathy vocals of TR on this new track remind me a lot of this track...

the Watchmen Soundtrack leitmotiv hunt
Several chord progressions and elements are shared throughout the three volumes of the soundtrack.
-"Nothing Ever Ends" is based on the “Mueller Time” descending bass line.
-"how the west was really won" main synth melody evolves into the "watch over this boy" piano melody.
-"watch over this boy" xylophone-like melody evolves into the sax part in "nostalgia blues".
Anything else ?

Lincoln Tunnel is probably my favorite score track that they have EVER done. I still get goosebumps when that guitar kicks in2:37 into Lincoln Tunnel, every single time.

Too early to rate, but i think Vol. 3 might be the best one...
All of them had awesome stuff, i need a bundle of all 3 releases or a special edition, ASAP!

Gotta agree.

To me, it's the one that impresses me the least. But I think it complements really well the other two. Overall, all three are fantastic. This is definitely my favourite soundtrack.
I'm still amazed by all the music TR&AR gave us over the last few years.

Has V3 showed up on any lossless stores?
Head like a head
Not yet

None of them have, except the non-vinyl tracks that TR posted. Wish they would sell them directly, since I bought the vinyl, I'm not paying for lossy files, but I will pay again if it's hi-res lossless.

Just sayin'
I would totally 100% be willing to buy a separate slip-case to slide the three records into via The Nine Inch Nails webstore, if that were to ever be a thing.
You know... ::clears throat::
In case anyone happens to read this.

I was thinking the exact same thing. That would be awfully handy! I'd definitely pay around $10 for something like that.

Lincoln Tunnel is like Great Gig in the Sky and TDTWWA had a beautiful baby. Truly one of the finest pieces of music TR has ever written. Not to take anything away from Atticus, I’m just saying anything Trent has ever produced as NIN or from his work with AR. Score or otherwise.

VOL 3 is a very interesting and refreshing press. Overall WATCHMEN has impressed me with the creativity, unpredictability, delivery, and all else. It has exceeded my expectations of just another score.

Volume 1 and 2 are available on Tidal (I can't see the price because I have a HiFi membership, it's overpriced though):
Volume 1 = https://store.tidal.com/us/album/121873662
Volume 2 = https://store.tidal.com/us/album/123892930
Both volumes are also available on Deezer, and Volume 2 is available on 7digital.

$17.99 per FLAC volume on Tidal

Much better off getting a membership then. Search for "60 days free tidal hifi" in Google

anyone had luck with finding Volume 3 on Google Play yet? i've been using their cloud music locker for 7 or 8 years now, so for streaming i usually stream with them unless i really like it and buy it in high quality lossless. when Trent and Atticus eventually sell the 24 bit lossless versions, i'll pick them up, but for now i've been streaming through Google Play. just wanted to make sure i'm not missing something because as of now it's on YouTube Music but not Google Play.

It reminds me of Nils Frahm

It's wild how different The Way It Used To Be sounds to literally everything TR+AR/NIN has ever done before, but the lyrics are peak TR lyrics.

Are Tidal FLACs 24/96?
RA-MEN ROPPAI
None of the Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, or related material is available in Hi-Res, with the exception of Peter Gabriel's "Growing Up (Trent Reznor Remix)". Spek shows it is actually 24/44.1, similar to the ProStudioMasters version.
TIDAL HiFi seems to cap out at 24/48; I haven't found anything higher yet.
Hairy Member
Amazon's hi-res service has them at 24-bit, but for streaming only, not purchase.
Throbbing Member
That volume 3 though.
Doomsday Prepper would fit right into a NIN album.
Active Member
Lyrics? Can you explain? I have yet to receive mine. Are there fake lyrics in the booklet or something? The track doesn't actually have vocals, does it?! (I assume not)

Before the way it use to be
The stars would light the way for us to see
I’m a part of everything you do
And I am always watching over you
Holding you in my embrace
Everything is in its place
The way it always was
The way it use to be
And there will never come a day
Where I would ever let you slip away
As long as stars above us both still shine
I’m forever yours and you are mine

I ran into this for Vol 2 - it was on YTM the wednesday of release, but not GPM. It was then available on GPM at midnight the Friday after. Hoping for the same for Vol 3! We shall see if history repeats itself
Edit: not seeing vol 3 in GPM, wth
