On July 16, 2008, [[Trent Reznor]] posted two images of the physical product on nin.com. The post was entitled "The Beginning and the End." The first image shows him holding two copies of the album, hiding his face behind them. The second image shows the backs of both CDs. The one in back reads 1/250,000 and the one in front reads 250,000/250,000.
The Limited Edition CD comes with three 4" x 4"stickers and each depict one of the 10 illustrations for the songs, aside from Demon Seed which does not appear to have had its artwork released as a sticker.
====Third Disc & 11th Track====
Like ''[[Ghosts I-IV]]'', the release of ''The Slip'' came as a surprise to most fans, who were expecting the next release to be a "''Year Zero 2''". Trent Reznor has indicated in interviews since the release that a ''[[Year Zero]]'' sequels was still in the works.
It remains unclear what portions, if any, of ''The Slip'' should be considered as canon in the Year Zero storyline. Aside from from [[Art Is Resistance]] logo in the artwork for "[[Letting You]]", there are no clear direct references characters or events in Year Zero. Many of tracks do share similar themes, such as abuse of power ("Letting You"), an avatar of destruction ("[[Demon Seed]]"), submission to authority ("[[Head Down]]"), imprisonment ("[[Echoplex]]") and the appearance of entities in the sky ("[[Lights In The Sky]]"). Other songs, however, like "[[1,000,000]]" and "[[Discipline]]", seem completely unrelated and feature more "traditional" NIN themes of personal turmoil.
