Данное издание как будто бы неожиданный ребёнок от европейского (https://www.discogs.com/ru/Nine-Inch-Nails-Year-Zero/release/6101313) и российского https://www.discogs.com/ru/Nine-Inch-Nails-Year-Zero/release/1281086 версий. Сам диск из первого, тот же Made in Germany, а всё остальное взято со второго. Забавная ситуация
As we've just about rolled into 2022, Reznor and the gang nailed it when they said they could see what was coming. Pretty much everything they hinted at during the YZ rollout is happening now. This album is top-notch, and the physical copy is just as great. The DE's been stuck on "coming soon" for ages, though. Still, it's worth every penny.
Oh boy, this is one heavily distorted Reznor experience—your speakers might want to brace themselves! Year Zero is all about a grim future America, ruled by a Christian theocracy that keeps everyone in check with a drug slipped into the water. It's set in 2022, dubbed "Year 0" by the government, marking America's so-called rebirth. It's pretty dark stuff, but hey, that's par for the course with Reznor. There was even an alternate reality game tied to the album concept. Fans found hidden clues on tour merch leading to websites painting a bleak, Orwellian picture of the U.S. in 2022. The album does have some less distorted, melodic tracks that'll get your head bobbing, like "The Good Soldier" and "Capital G". Reznor's brilliance shines as he turns distortion into something rhythmic, musical, and lyrical. That said, listening at high volumes can tire your ears out. And when it comes to distortion, "The Great Destroyer" nearly blew my speakers' cones away! This album wraps up my vinyl collection of all Nine Inch Nails studio albums: Pretty Hate Machine, The Downward Spiral, The Fragile, With Teeth, Year Zero, The Slip, Ghosts I-IV, and Hesitation Marks. I've also got the Year Zero remix album, Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D, on vinyl. Some of these, like The Fragile, were rare, pricey, and tough to find, so I'm pretty chuffed about my collection. Most of it's in near mint (NM or M-) condition, with all at least in very good plus (VG+) shape. This record came in a neat trifold jacket with a 16-page 12” booklet and a 3-sided record (LP + Single Sided) pressed on heavyweight vinyl. The fourth side has an eerie etched silhouette of a hand. Inside the jacket, the center panel lists the tracks, the left panel shows a bible, and the right panel has a machine gun. The jacket's annoyingly oversized, doesn't fit my regular outer sleeves, and sticks out about 0.25” further than the other records on the shelf. Grr! The recording had an average signal level (-6 dB) and was pretty quiet. It had little to no dynamic range compression (average score of +0.3 as measured by DRC-Meter). My CD version of this album had an average score of +5.2, heavily compressed! This is a fantastic album. I'd give it 5 out of 5 stars.
Audio-wise -> Absolutely fantastic --in every sense of the term [from Production to the Musical Talent] and NIN largely steered clear of the Doom and Gloom Goth Singing but preserved the essence of Doom and Gloom Goth Words Pretty MUch Electronic/Goth/Industrial....Very Much Alike With the Sounds/Music from "GHOSTS I-IV and "WITH TEETH".
The volume is clearly low, enjoyable to use, but the sound quality is quite poor.
