Listen now if you want: (may not play right away due to large server loads right now)

Update: I wouldn’t recommend downloading/purchasing from the NIN for another day or so. They are having issues with their servers trying to catch up to all the insane traffic. Or, you can purchase it from the Amazon.com site, whose servers are a bit more robust right now. I’m waiting on the FLAC files so I am going to wait it out on the NIN site itself.

Update 2: Everything seems to be back to normal now with the servers. It’s an incredible release. I’ve only had the time to listen to it once but it’s great.
