SteveTApr 16, 2007lyrically weak ... uneventful at most times a major disappointment. the thermals released an album of a somewhat similar theme only they pulled it off with great success. biggest disappointment of the year so far.

[Anonymous]May 21, 2007it's obscure, lacks the hooks of With Teeth and most importantly lacks the balls out screaming that makes Trent so damn good. He whispers on most songs, with beats seemingly melding into the same song over and over again. Let's hope the 2nd half is better.

LucasKMay 25, 2007Sit down with this album, listen to it, digest it, then put it away in the cupboard for a week and I guarantee none of these middle of the road songs will be with you when you retrieve it.

mikes.May 8, 2007NIN probably their best album but it lacks any fun factor. The group is simply not fun to listen to.

Make no mistake this is NIN as usual, but [it is] an effortless, inspired, and unaffected Trent Reznor the likes of which we may not have had the pleasure of knowing for almost a decade and a half.

Amid its carefully calibrated sonic assaults, Year Zero has a number of tracks that will stop you in yours.

Its nihilism can grate, but it makes an impression.
