The Line Begins To Blur

Was mailed the second track "leaked" onto the internet from the new Nine Inch Nails album, "With Teeth", today. "The Line Begins To Blur" is definintely more akin to what I expected..
I can imagine a lot of this new stuff is going to sound fucking awesome live, as it really does seem to have been written with consideration to performing it in mind, it's less complex, less fiddly, less indulgent.. and whilst "The Hand that Feeds" seemed almost poppy to me, this has more of an epic feel to it and seems to have the gravity of a track that you wouldn't be surprised to hear on "The Downward Spiral".
Also, is it me or does Trent seem to be just a tad angry?
You'd think, given that it's what nearly 16 years since Pretty Hate Machine, he'd have learnt to sit back, calm down, chill the fuck out, just a tad.. but the underlying anger still simmers under the whole of this track.
Apparently there will be special editions of the new album too with bonus DVDs.. must start sniffing round a few websites to see if a pre-order is possible yet..
