As I put on Hesitation Marks, I thought that this album would have a lot to live up to in terms of originality. I for one felt that Reznor was on an incredible creative run of brilliant ideas and vision with Year Zero, Ghosts and The Slip. Sure, those albums were not comparable to The Downward Spiral or The Fragile in terms of emotional intensity, but then nor were they supposed to be. So I half-expected this album to be a continuation of innovating the format and conceptuality rather than an epic journey exploring the depths of suicidal feelings. And I was extremely excited to hear that Reznor was "completely rethinking" NIN had been working with people like Adrian Belew.
But in actual fact, it seems that the focus of Hesitation Marks is not about world-changing sonic experimentation and technological smart-assery. Musically, there are some surprises. Reznor career-long obvious Prince influence has never been more apparent than it is in the playful falsetto of "All Time Low" or the funk of "Satellite". In a somewhat Talking Heads' Remain in Light fashion, "Copy of A" is built up gradually in layers in a way which seems more rhythmically driven than ever before. And the major-scale verse melody of "Everything" certainly comes as a shock, but after a few listens somehow falls into the category of more conventional loud NIN moments.
Much has been made of the alleged 'sparseness' of this album in contrast with Reznor's usual painstaking tapestries of sound. But for much of the album this is done in such a way which perhaps less noticeable to outsiders, as layers of all-sorts seem to quickly pile on in almost every song. The main noticeable differences are the lack of any truly face-pounding explosive rockers, and the absence of Reznor screaming hard enough to lose his voice. Read more ›

This album is a great evolutionary step, it fits perfectly straight after 'The Fragile' album. I love how it makes associations with all previous albums while taking nin to new directions. The album creates some fantastic sonic layers and flows while the last four songs are made to listen all together make an enjoyable listen. Can't say which is my favourite track as they all flow together nicely.

Ever since Trent Reznor started Nine Inch Nails he has been considered one of the greatest musicians of his time and now with 9 albums (and 1 EP) released with all the song-writing, production and instrument playing under his belt it is safe to say he is one of the greatest musicians ever.
It has always been a trait of Reznor to make layered soundscapes that take the listeners to different points of emotion. On top of this it has been another trait to make the music very bleak and dark. Now hardcore NIN fans will find both these traits just as on other albums but the difference is there is a sense of hope. For example on the single 'Copy Of A' Reznor sings about the lack of originality of life and people (dark) but then also within the song there is the idea that there is always the possibility of change in life (hope). This appears on numerous other songs such as the brilliant 'Came Back Haunted' and the industrial-pop of 'Everything'.
As this is a NIN album it will always take a couple of listens to truly hear everything the music has to provide but that's just the genius of Reznor, and overall Reznor still sounds like he's full of fresh ideas and he's not running out of them any time soon but then who could expect any less from one of the greatest musicians who ever graced a recording studio?

Trent Reznor is in his late forties, married and has two small children. He is no longer the angry young man he was 20 years ago when he recorded The Downward Spiral.
I am in my mid-forties, married with three children. I am no longer the young man I was 20 years ago.
I got The Downward Spiral back then, and I get Hesitation Marks now.
The album presents a new Trent Reznor - a satisfied one, an optimistic one - still angry, but it is a focused anger at the things that annoy you once you've lived through life and grown a bit wiser.
The music is a journey, still recognisably NIN, but with influences of funk and prog thrown in for good measure.
The album starts with Copy of A and Came Back Haunted which is my only criticism of the album. Whilst both are good songs, they have been in circulation for some time now and seem overly familiar. I felt I wasn't been drawn into the album as I knew these songs too well.
Following on from these tracks the album builds slowly, but impressively towards the album's highlight - Everything, a perfect uplifting punk/new wave rush of adrenaline.
The album then settles into a solid groove which provides a satisfying journey to the last four songs. This section includes Various Methods of Escape which is another highlight of the album. Running is the weakest track on the album, but has an strong chorus and some interesting vocals which increasingly become out of breath as the song progresses towards the end as if Trent is indeed running through the song.
The final four tracks provide an epic conclusion to the album. Everything may be the finest track on the album, but In Two gives it a close run. Read more ›

Few surprises, but a solid album from a streamlined NIN
This is definitely the most accessible album NIN have ever produced. It has the dancey feel of Year Zero but minus the noisey glitchy bits. Read more

For this comeback album Trent Reznor has enlisted Russell Mills to reprise his role as sleeve collagist from The Downward Spiral. Even the typography harks back to 1994. Read more
