Nine
Inch Nails will release a new studio album — their first since
2008's The
Slip — some time this year on their new label, Columbia Records.
"I've been less than honest about what I've really
been up to lately," Trent Reznor said in a statement. "For the last
year, I've been secretly working non-stop with Atticus Ross and Alan Moulder on
a new, full-length Nine Inch Nails record, which I am happy to say is finished
and frankly fucking great."
Reznor told Rolling
Stone last year that he was working on new Nine Inch Nails
material after the group disbanded after their farewell tour in 2009. Earlier
this year, the frontman confirmed NIN was indeed coming back with a
brand-new lineup that would play a handful of festivals (including
Lollapalooza and Outside
Lands) this summer and arena dates in the fall.
Reznor has kept busy in the years since he ended NIN,
scoring music for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and The Social
Network and winning
an Oscar with Ross for the latter.
"This is the real impetus and motivation behind the
decision to assemble a new band and tour again," Reznor added in the
release. "My forays into film, HTDA and other projects really stimulated
me creatively and I decided to focus that energy on taking Nine Inch Nails to a
new place."
Along with Reznor, Nine Inch Nails' new lineup features
Alessandro Cortini, Josh Eustis, Robin Finck and Ilan Rubin; this group will
make their debut at the Fuji Rock Festival in Naeba, Japan on July 26th.
