Biography

Nine Inch Nails is an industrial rock project led by the incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist Trent Reznor. Reznor has been the driving force behind the project for many years, serving as the only constant member until Atticus Ross officially joined in 2016. Despite the ever-changing lineup of band members for live performances, Nine Inch Nails has consistently produced highly influential records across a wide array of genres, including industrial and electronic rock.

Throughout the 1990s, Nine Inch Nails released several groundbreaking albums that pushed the boundaries of music. The project gained a reputation for its innovative sound and intense live performances. After eight successful studio releases, Reznor decided to put Nine Inch Nails on hiatus in 2009 to focus on other projects. However, he made a triumphant return in 2013 with announced tour dates across the United States and overseas.

Nine Inch Nails has received numerous accolades over the years, including 13 Grammy Award nominations and two wins for songs "Wish" and "Happiness In Slavery." Reznor himself was recognized in Time magazine's list of the year's most influential people, and Spin magazine has hailed him as "the most vital artist in music."

The band has released a total of nine studio albums since their debut in 1989, as well as four original EPs. Nine Inch Nails was also one of the first artists to have an independently released record go platinum. Their albums have achieved great success, with two reaching the number one spot on the U.S. charts - The Fragile and With Teeth - and four others landing in the top 5.
