Trent Reznor bitch-slaps Chris Cornell FWIW, AllMusic agrees with him.

I haven't heard Cornell's new album, but I prefer Soundgarden's stuff to any of Reznor's work, and I actually like NIN.

Popmatters didn't think much of it, either.

Interesting to note who Trent follows on Twitter.

Petty Tweet Machine.

I like that Reznor writes his own tweets. So does David Lynch, apparently. That pretty cool.

Heh, the Allmusic review is even snarkier than PopMatters, which I didn't think possible.

Trent has been interacting with fans online for several years now. He had a webcam watching him make With Teeth and people would even drop by the studio. In those days it was just really hard-core fans.

I heard a few songs. It was indeed awful.

Wow, that's the roughest AllMusic review I've ever seen. It sounds horrible enough to go grab a copy - I've always liked his voice, be fun to see how bad it can get.
