The guys from the "Classic Albums" series are at it again. This time they take a look at the making of one of the greatest debut albums in rock history, the self-titled album from The Doors.

Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails stunned the music world (again) on May 5, 2008, when it was announced that The Slip was available to download. For free. However, is he—is he tough enough, or is Reznor wearing down, down, down, down, down. The results may shock you into a vegetative state.
