Hells YES! One of the best experimental bands of the ’90s is finally returning to the music scene in 2013!!
Trent Reznor has been a busy man since the various members of Nine Inch Nails went their separate ways four years ago; he’s won Oscars, is just about to release an album with his wife…
But NOW we hear NIN is reforming, and Trent and his peeps will begin touring in the summer/fall!!
Trent said in a statement:
“The band is reinventing itself from scratch and will be comprised of Eric Avery, Adrian Belew, Alessandro Cortini, Josh Eustis, Ilan Rubin, and me. The first shows will begin this summer, followed by a full-on arena tour of the US this fall, and lots of other dates worldwide to follow through 2014.”
Whoop whoop!!
This new NIN formation sounds KILLER! Eric Avery of Jane’s Addiction, Adrian Belew of King Crimson, and Josh Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv?!
NICE.
We are SO excited to hear this inevitably unique concoction of sound, led by Mr. Trent!

NOTE FROM TRENT:
Nine Inch Nails are touring this year.
I was working with Adrian Belew on some musical ideas, which led to some discussion on performing, which led to some beard-scratching, which (many steps later) led to the decision to re-think the idea of what Nine Inch Nails could be, and the idea of playing a show. Calls were made to some friends, lots of new ideas were discussed, and a show was booked – which led to another, which somehow led to a lot of shows.
The band is reinventing itself from scratch and will be comprised of Eric Avery, Adrian Belew, Alessandro Cortini, Josh Eustis, Ilan Rubin, and me. The first shows will begin this summer, followed by a full-on arena tour of the US this fall, and lots of other dates worldwide to follow through 2014.
Lots of details and dates to come. See you soon.
