The video was filmed at 10050 Cielo Drive — the Los Angeles home where actress Sharon Tate was brutally murdered by members of the Manson Family in the summer…
The first time I ever saw the album, I didn't even know Trent Reznor's name. I was young and angsty and browsing a small record shop near my childhood home when I came across a bright blue and pink album titled Pretty Hate Machine.

Look, when it broke that Trent Reznor was going to be involved in the soundtrack for The Social Network, I knew it was going to be good. And when I saw The Social Network back in 2010, I knew the soundtrack was good. But I only just sat down and really listened to it the other day and holy shit you guys, it is dope.

It's a shame Nine Inch Nails isn't touring anymore. Their concerts, while an acquired taste for some, were always a spectacle, replete with one-of-a-kind technological marvels, and I could totally see Silent Drum at the forefront should they return.
Nine Inch Nails frontman and all-around rock god Trent Reznor is remixing his own "Zero-Sum" for J.J. Abrams' Fringe. And in keeping with the show's nerd-overload, the whole thing is full of geeky Easter Eggs and hard core Fringe references.
Straight from the twitter account of the man himself, the NIN iPhone app has been approved and will be available sometime later today "unchanged" from the version that Apple found objectionable.

Apparently, HBO's new slogan could be "It's not television, it's a concept album and online ARG about a futuristic dystopia turned into mini-series." That's if new reports that the cable channel is planning to adapt Nine Inch Nail's Year Zero into a TV series turn out to be true, of course.The LA Times is reporting…
Last year, Trent Reznor recorded 36 instrumental tracks. This year, he's releasing them on the internet, rather à la Radiohead, but without the open price.

Journos and music fans from all corners fawned over Radiohead for their bold release strategy for In Rainbows. After breaking with the majors, Trent Reznor and his parter-in-crime Saul Williams are taking that strategy and stepping it up to the next level of awesome.
