The Slip comes packed with an exclusive, really exciting PDF file containing exclusive, really exciting artwork. If you've always felt like Nine Inch Nails album art made too much sense, you're in luck today! This time, we've got a blurry photo of Trent enjoying a perfectly heterosexual massage from some guy with hairy arms for the "cover," and some intriguing images of various assorted symbols and scribbles that I'm sure hold some extremely deep meaning to Trent and no one else on earth. Okay! Now, there's one little thing I want to address before trying my damnedest to forever purge the mental image of Trent getting a massage from my mind. Turn with me, if you will, to page 13 of the PDF. Come on, quit being a little bitch and just do it.
