Musicians Remix Nine Inch Nails' Year Zero

After months of speculation, Trent Reznor revealed that he will in fact release a remix album of Nine Inch Nails' latest offering, Year Zero. The album will be available on November 20 in various formats, including CD, digital download and vinyl. Looking over the roster of remix recruits for the project, titled Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D, we're impressed by Reznor's eclectic taste. Olof Dreijer, of Swedish haunted-house duo The Knife, nu-wave band The Faint, and famed producer Paul "Phones" Epworth are just some of the names that the industrial mastermind has pulled in.

On the official NIN website, Reznor says, "I can make this easy for you: if you just want to hear the tracks as cheaply as possible, get it digitally. The highest fidelity will likely be Amazon [digital music store] (through legal means). If you want something that's aesthetically cool and will enhance any collection, get the vinyl. Trust me, it looks great. The extra tracks are fairly minor embellishments to the whole (and surely someone will upload them instantly). If you want higher quality tracks legally, a nice package AND a complete multitrack of the whole record, get the physical CD / DVD ROM."
