The Year Zero Booklet at a glance

Just got my hands on it. I knew, as soon as I looked at it, there were more websites to be found somewhere in the backgrounds of the lyrics, more stories and secrets of the world of Year Zero.

And so, I broke out the magnifying glass. To my surprise, I was correct, I managed to decode a few numbers hinted at by highlighted letters in the booklet, and dig a few scrambled numbers and words out of the backgrounds. Here's what I got:

on survivalism page
17593 314547

on the good soldier
179

on vessel
13971

me, i'm not
Highlighted letters: s e v e n f i v e

capital G
highlighted letters: s e v e n t w o

my violent heart
highlighted letters: 0 (zero) in "st0p"
s e v e n

the warning
13971 126871 314697
highlighted letters: t w o
0 (zero) in "t0"

god given
highlighted letters: f i v e t h r e e
179 174639

meet your master
179 (631 -- 3 looks upside down -- 931?)
highlighted letters: t h r e e (a?)

the greater good
71364
highlighted: 3 (lyric) t h r e e

the great destroyer
1385897
highlighted: t h r e e n i n e

I might be observant, but I'm not much of a problem solver, you can figure out what to do with these codes if you want. Let me know if you think you know how to decode anything, I'd be quite interested. Just so you know where it came from, all numbers where hidden in the background designs, and all the letters were hidden in the lyrics (various letters were highlighted in each song, when combined they spelled out numbers).

I got lazy after the great destroyer, and didn't catch on to the highlighted letters until after the first few songs, so go check for yourself ;)

Year Zero

Nine Inch Nails really knows how to attract a fan. I've been a rabid fan of this band ever since I discovered the joy that is Industrial Rock. But to be honest, I really didn't expect to get what they're giving me now. Not only are they giving me amazing music, this is a story. Its horrifying. If you let yourself believe, maybe you can feel something you've never felt before. Its something like...

Its parepin. The government's solution. Its in your water. Its in your body. Its in your head.

When did we make the conscious decision to follow whatever they shove down our throats?
What is real truth? And even if you you got it, would you want to believe it?
This is the beginning of the end.

Parepin and that presence, a hand, or something, extending from the sky.
What is it? Do you want to know? Can you believe?
