Line 6:
[[Nine Inch Nails]] is an [[Industrial Metal]] band who have been rolling around the musical scene since 1989, releasing music videos which have ranged from politically subversive to the sort of video which answers the question 'What if ''[[Hostel]]'' had been a set for music videos?'
They're somewhat unusual in that [[I Am the Band|it's essentially one man]], Trent Reznor, who's done all of it. Most members have come and gone, occasionally contributing to albums but mostly staying for the live shows. In 2009, Reznor announced that he retired from touring, though that he was going to continue to release albums under the Nine Inch Nails name; he ended up reneging on this four years later when he went on tour in assistance of the new album at that time ''Hesitation Marks''. Also in 2016 Atticus Ross, a long time collaborator was made an official member of the band.
The music is surprisingly varied, from ear-destroying screaming guitar-death on ''Broken'' to beautiful, mellow piano pieces on ''Still''; but most of it falls squarely under [[True Art Is Angsty]].
Line 30:
* ''Ghosts I-IV'' (2008) - contains 36 instrumental tracks on four discs.. Notable for being obtainable in about twenty different ways, and all the tracks not having proper names and being called by names such as '2 Ghosts I' and '22 Ghosts III'
* ''The Slip'' (2008) - released completely for free on the website as a "thank you" to fans. Theories exist among fans that this is another [[Concept Album]], following the aftermath of Year Zero.
* ''Hesitation Marks'' (2013) - Released through major label Columbia Records.
* ''Not The Actual Events'' (2016 EP) - Self-released. Digital versions came with a "physical component".
There have been five DVDs [[Executive Meddling|(sort of)]]:
