24/7 Nine Inch Nails News via News Feed (Verbose Edition) https://www.theninhotline.com The Hotline News Management Interface v20180908 en-us http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1751907867 This photo via nincatalog on Instagram shows a t-shirt sold at the Paris, France concert on July 7. The lyric t-shirt has been sold since the start of the Peel It Back Tour. The design has varied from show to show featuring well known songs like “Closer” and “Wish” but this one is unrecognizable. It says “AS ALIVE AS YOU NEED ME TO BE”. Is this a new nin song? Does this mean there is new Nine Inch Nails music on the horizon? What do you think? http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1751072771 With about a hundred days to go before Tron:Ares hits theaters, British film magazine Empire speak with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for their July 2 issue, featuring Tron:Ares on the cover . "It sounds precise and unpleasant at times. It’s not an atonal, punishing score, but we spent a lot of time thinking about the undertones of what’s happening in the story. The concept of artificial life infused with feelings and emotions and a sense of questioning their purpose and their replaceability, their lack of soul, in some ways. We kind of riffed on that." There's more in this teaser, but the full article is due out next week - and you can pre-order the issue here . http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1750114620 Last night, Nine Inch Nails emerged from stealth mode to kick off the Peel It Back World Tour in Dublin, Ireland. It's rare to avoid so-called "spoilers" in the information age, but if you're still here checking a mostly-text website, there's a chance you're one of those who hasn't been reloading the official Discord, or hanging out in the Tour News subforum of Echoing the Sound , and to that end, I'll keep it brief: The multi-stage setup blends seamlessly between the Boys Noize set, and a variety of interpretations of songs from across nearly the entire Nine Inch Nails catalog, for a total run time of around two hours. There is a lot of new merchandise, from hoodies to unisex tank tops to swanky Airtag holders, and I think it's fair to say that the prices at the venue was higher than previous years - with hoodies breaking three-figures. Much of the merch calls back to themes from The Downward Spiral, and for more information, check out the tour merch thread on ETS . The tour continues in Manchester on Tuesday, and please, bring shoes you can dance in. Yes, it can be quite the spectacle, but you're not watching TV, you're at a concert - this music is made to move you, emotionally and physically. Am I judging the audience I'm seeing in these YouTube videos? I absolutely am. Nonetheless, I can't wait for the tour to roll through North America. http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1749415418 Longtime reader and all around good dude Johnbron brought it to my attention that a new teaser for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 just dropped, and most of the three minute preview of the upcoming release is set to a dramatic and cinematic remix of 2005's The Hand That Feeds . You may recall that the theme song to Call of Duty: Black Ops II was an original composition by Trent Reznor. What's hard for me to swallow is that was a dozen years ago. Seems about as likely as The Hand That Feeds coming out two decades ago. I'm going to need someone to fact check this information. http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1746559706 Somewhere - maybe it was Reddit, maybe it was Facebook, could have been Bluesky, it might have even been that old fan forum that still manages to have a pulse - somewhere, I saw someone mention that they hoped to see the revival of a tour book, like the ones they had for Fragility 2.0 and With Teeth 2006 . And I know people have been pining for more Peel It Back tour merch. You've got that lizard-face-looking thing on a shirt and a hoodie, plus a hat. There's good news for the six of you who (and I appreciate every one of you) that still visit this site: when you need him most, Meathead is here for you . http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1739565613 “Swoon” is dark, driving synth-funk and features Nine Inch Nails‘ Trent Reznor. “I am both in the state of swoon as are my audience when witnessing my live performance,” says Murphy of the song. “Trent Reznor cordially accepted my invitation to appear on the song, adding a welcome vibe on the second verse, as well as throughout the entire song in the form of backing vocalizing.” Source: Brooklyn Vegan Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPOgRAQdbtQ Bandcamp: "Swoon" Off Peter Murphy's up coming album "Silver Shade" out May 9th http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1739478052 The Gorge, a new science fiction film directed by Scott Derrickson and written by Zach Dean and premiering on Apple+ on February 14, will feature a score by the award winning composers we write about so often here. Because of the intricacies of internationalization and global commerce, Qobuz in New Zealand went live with the commercial digital release , with a total run time of just over a half hour across ten tracks. As the earth rotates and the sun appears to rise from the east across the APAC and EMEA regions, and eventually gets to us here in the Americas, it will no doubt be available from all the usual* places you can listen to music today. Tip of the hat to TheBang on ETS for breaking the news! *But probably not Bandcamp since this is a Milan records release. http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1738996592 Several sources announced this, but Film Music Reporter is dedicated to the cause, so I'll link them. Winning "Best Score" for the third time, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross take home a Critic's Choice award for Challengers, which I once played on repeat for hours in a hotel room while working on a presentation for a meeting the following day, well into the wee hours of the night, and when I finally shut my computer down, to my absolute horror, I could hear the television in the next room over, obviously turned up because they were tired of Compress, Repress [MIXED] . I am so sorry, whoever you were. The duo previously won Critic's Choice awards for Soul and The Social Network. Trent Reznor shared his reaction on Bluesky , the only social network not run by billionaires with brainworms. http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1738872656 2025's Record Store Day will see crowds of music fans meeting up in person in the hopes they can grab a deal or an exclusive pressing on April 12, 2025, and among the offerings this year is a 7" record featuring "Te Maldigo" from Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, and Omar Apollo. Here's the product detail page from the UK RSD website , and clicking this link will trigger a download of a PDF listing other Record Store Day releases . There's no indication of how limited this will be, but if you're interested, you should make a plan for getting to your local record store in a couple of months. Visit the official RSD website to find participating stores near you . Happy hunting. http://www.theninhotline.com/news/permalink/1736778419 There have been rumors about a summer tour of Europe floating around, but rumors come and go. It's never real until it's published through official channels, as far as I'm concerned. So when NIN added "Peel It Back World Tour 2025" to their Facebook page, and Ticketmaster posted a September 10 date at the Amalie Arena - with ticket sales going live January 17 at 12pm EST, that's enough to convince me. I don't suspect that was intentional, but it's a sign that the rumors are true. Stay tuned...
