Trent Reznor never ceases to amaze me. Nine Inch Nails mysteriously released a new single, with lyrics, to radio stations across the US today. It was mastered less than 24 hours ago. The track is titled “Discipline” and is rumored to be on a forthcoming album to be released in two weeks. This is according to speculation from the NIN.com news feed that says “Two Weeks”. The last time the RSS feed said that we got a new album. Digital distribution awesomeness!
