Trent Reznor Announces New Nine Inch Noize Album Following Coachella Performance
Exciting Collaboration: Nine Inch Noize
Fresh off a mesmerizing performance at Coachella, Trent Reznor has unveiled details about the highly anticipated Nine Inch Noize album. This collaboration, featuring renowned electronic artist Alex Ridha, known as Boys Noize, promises to deliver a fresh take on Reznor’s iconic sound.
Album Release Details
The new 12-track collaborative LP is set to drop on Friday, April 17, under Interscope Records. This release comes just before the duo’s second and final performance at Coachella, giving fans a unique opportunity to experience their innovative sound live.
The Genesis of Nine Inch Noize
In a recent statement, Reznor shared insights into how this collaboration came to fruition. He explained, “The creative fulfillment of working on the Challengers and TRON scores with Boys Noize led me to think that including him in the Peel It Back Tour could be an interesting way to express NIN in more purely electronic terms live – a concept I’ve wanted to explore for some time.” He added that the enjoyable experience of their initial collaboration motivated them to expand their project into a full album.
From Idea to Reality
Reznor humorously recounted how the concept evolved: “On a whim I mentioned it would be cool to play a whole set as Nine Inch Noize in the Sahara tent at Coachella. Careful what you wish for… the next thing I knew we were designing a whole new show to present in the way it deserved.” This spontaneous idea has blossomed into a much-anticipated project.
Looking Toward the Future
As for what’s next, Reznor clarified that there are no surprise tour announcements following their Coachella performance. “This Saturday is it. I’m taking Sunday off and excited to be working on new Nine Inch Nails music Monday – I’ll see you when I come up for air,” he stated enthusiastically.
Recording Experience
Reznor shared insights into the recording process for the album, noting, “We recorded this album all over the place – some of it’s live, some in studios, hotels, planes, etc. We had a lot of fun revisiting these songs and hope you enjoy. Listen loud.” This eclectic approach to recording reflects the dynamic energy of the collaboration.
