Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor On ‘Nine Inch Noize’ Album: ‘Listen LOUD’

Nine Inch Noize – the newly formed project featuring Nine Inch Nails members, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, with Boys Noize (Alexander Ridha) – will release their self-titled debut album this Friday, April 17. Reznor shared a statement encouraging those who check out the album to “Listen LOUD.”

Nine Inch Noize made their live debut last weekend at Coachella with Reznor’s wife and How to Destroy Angels bandmate, vocalist Mariqueen Maandig, performing with the group. NIN and Boys Noize recently completed their Peel It Back Tour that featured nightly collaborative sets.

Revealing how Nine Inch Noize came together, Reznor stated:

“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. The result was so much fun for us we felt it was worth expanding and formalizing in some way.

“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.

“There’s no surprise tour announcement – 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.

“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.”

The 12-song Nine Inch Noize tracklist includes remix versions of NIN songs, including “Vessel,” “Closer” and “As Alive as You Need Me to Be.” The record also features the How To Destroy Angels song “Parasite” and a cover of Soft Cell’s “Memorabilia,” which were both played at Coachella.
