Connection to With Teeth/Year Zero:
I am starting to think that 'The Slip' Is a giant net that has collected both albums concepts and dragged them together..
Just look at the lyrics to Echoplex and The Collector:
-------------
"They tend to accumulate
I have this net
It drags behind me
And it picks up feelings
For me to feed upon"
"I built this place with broken parts
Just like they said"
"Are you listening?
Yes I am building
Something bigger than the world
Something terrible
With all of this"

The release was very interesting, Tent knew that we'd all hear about it on the NINternet, but he never actually told us the 2nd single was out. I wouldn't have been surprised if the new album had actually just turned up on our doorsteps or randomly emailed to us, he's gotten so generous of late.

== Synthetic drums ==
Has anyone thought about the synthetic drums being a musical representation of the "walls" mentioned throughout the song? Everything else sort of echoes off them, even the alternate drum pattern.[[User:The Kiw|The Kiw]] 21:25, 3 November, 2010 (GMT)
:what do you mean by "echoing off" the drum patches? there's never any delay effects on them (or even reverb), so there literally isn't any echo. if you mean that they remain the base throughout the song and everything else comes and goes, that's true... except for the ending, where the drum loops stop before anything else. - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|seasonsinthesky]] 14:47, 3 November 2010 (PDT)
::Yeah, that's what I meant by "echoing off" - that everything else comes and goes. Haven't really realized the thing with the ending, good point.[[User:The Kiw|The Kiw]]
