Trent Reznor is the quintessential angry rock star. The long ride with Nine Inch Nails started with "Pretty Hate Machine," the band's first studio album in 1989. NIN has been called metal, electronic, techno, industrial and many other genre labels, but continues to defy categorization. The latest studio album "Hesitation Marks" released in September of 2013 is the ninth studio album and the first album on a major record label since 2007.
Introduced with the single "Came Back Haunted," "Hesitation Marks" represents a return to the studio and state of the art recording technology for NIN. "The Slip," the previous album released as a free torrent, was recorded with all live recording equipment, with amps mic'd and the band playing every song together for recording. The new album is exquisitely refined. From the industrial beats to more house style bass loops the album is distinctly NIN but also distinctly new.
