So, it's just a matter of "Do you like the songs?".
At this point, two decades in, he's like Tom Petty or Pearl Jam or any number of artists whose careers have spanned decades. Either you connect with the new music or you don't. It's really as simple as that.
If you don't, at least you have a lifetime of memories from his earlier music.

Yeah....Reznor is like Manson for me. Loved both of their music when I was growing up but now I just listen to them because of who they are. There is no more anger or hate in their music. That shit has passed them by.
The one thing that Reznor has over Manson is that Trent does some awesome soundtrack work.
