Last August, NINE INCH NAILS scrapped all of its previously announced shows for 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In March 2020, NINE INCH NAILS surprise-released two new albums: “Ghosts V: Together” and “Ghosts VI: Locusts”. Consisting of 23 new instrumental tracks, they were described on NIN‘s web site as “two different records for two different mindsets.”
Prior to “Ghosts V: Together” and “Ghosts VI: Locusts”, Reznor and collaborator Atticus Ross last shared new NINE INCH NAILS music in a series of records released over three years: “Not The Actual Events” in 2016, “Add Violence” in 2017 and “Bad Witch” in 2018, with the latter followed by a tour.
The pair have spent much of the past few years composing scores for TV and film projects like “Bird Box”, “Waves” and “Watchmen”. They also worked with Halsey on “If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power” and were honored with an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for “Best Original Score” for their work on “Soul”.
