My next post won’t be about Nine Inch Nails. Honest.
But this one will be! (Sorry, I’m one of those rabid, scary fangirls. It’s a terrible affliction.)
You may or may not know about the release “Ghosts” - an instrumental album, in which all the songs are left untitled. I don’t own it, as I decided I am not currently prepared to pay the price for an instrumental album, however beautiful it is.
But I have been listening to the songs released as a sample of the album (they really are amazing pieces of music) and between hearing these, and seeing this picture, the lust has taken over.

Oh, Ghosts, how shiny you are in your deluxe format, with your four disks gleaming in the sunlight, and glossy picture book rustling in the soft breeze… how soft your fabric slipcase…
How expensive your price tag…
That little voice inside of me, that squeaky one that likes shiny things, it’s giving me problems. It’s the part of my brain that says “Ah, it is worth £40, you should buy it right now, it is beautiful, it will make your life complete..”
And it really needs to be quiet and accept that I cannot spend so much on a deluxe two CD, one DVD, one blu-ray disk set with beautiful picture book…
I don’t even have a blu-ray player (nope, not even a PS3).
…I would sell various family members to own this.
And don’t even get me started on the out-of-stock, signed-by-trent_reznor-himself Super-deluxe edition…
Even if just to have a quick listen to the sample songs on the site, check it out, ne?
An album of soundscapes won’t float everyone’s boat, but it is beautiful music.
