NINE INCH NAILS bandmates, frontman Trent Reznor and multi-instrumentalist
Atticus Ross spend most of their time, lately, together scoring series soundtracks
under their own names.

They wrote their newest one for the upcoming, 3rd installment of
the science fiction Tron series, titled Tron: Ares. It premieres on
October 2025.

This one is credited to Nine Inch Nails (will sell better I guess).

The first taster of that soundtrack is named
AS ALIVE AS YOU NEED ME TO BE and it’s
100% NIN. An ominous hammer drill.

Wake up people,
rub your eyes
the film is about
to start.

With a bit of time on their hands in-between
they started touring again, since June.

Trent Reznor moving forward by coming to terms with what he hath wrought.”

A Message From NINE INCH NAILS And TRENT REZNOR’s Favorite Track Of 2024

NINE INCH NAILS confirm rumours about a 2025 world tour.

Last week, the band’s luminary TRENT REZNOR
revealed his favorite track of 2024. Very, very,
very surprising.

And the winner is…

More than 1,8 billion streams on Spotify.
Wowzers (although, personally, I think is an
average R&B tune).

NINE INCH NAILS – Ground/Noise-Breaking Album ‘THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL’ Is 30

TRENT REZNOR and his NINE INCH NAILS released their classic LP THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL 30 years ago, on 8 March 1994. A ground/noise-breaking masterwork that cemented NIN’s greatness for eternity.

Rolling Stone wrote: “NIN achieve a new kind of loud on The Downward Spiral: accessible hard-rock moves overlaid with a scrim of electronic racket, white noise, screams, the kind of blown-speaker rattle that seems to use the limitations of crappy stereo equipment the way that Hendrix riffed on the distortion that howled from overdriven Marshall stacks. It’s a new frontier in rock & roll: music that pins playback levels far into the red.”

Reznor looks back.

Goosebumps – Manchester Collective SYLVETTE Cover Heavyhearted NIN Musing

17 September 2022

Band: SYLVETTE
Who: Manchester five-piece Sylvette, formed 6 years ago. They have built a cult fan base around the country with their dynamic blend of emotive art-rock and Kafkaesque lyrics. Describing themselves as “Björk meets Black Midi, Nine Inch Nails and Black Country New Road”, the band’s name is inspired by the enchanting muse who appears in many of Picasso’s famous paintings.

They’re ready to go on the road. But first, their goosebumps cover of RIGHT WHERE
IT BELONGS
, a pearl of a ballad by Nine Inch Nails (from their 2005 With Teeth LP).

“”Right Where It Belongs’ is the first cover we’ve ever played together that really felt like we made it our own. The song is about questioning your reality and how going through change
and trauma can distort the way you perceive yourself. It really felt appropriate for the theme
of our upcoming album ‘Single Thread’, so we made it the closing track on the record.”

Whereas mastermind Trent Reznor‘s performance is eerie Sylvette‘s take resonates fragile, sending shivers down your spine. like Sigur Ros does so wonderfully. I’m sure Reznor will like it.

Tune in.

NIN’s original.
