Nine Inch Nails Unveil EP

2016-12-16 by https://jomageddon.wordpress.com/2025/06/28/sputnikmusic-staff-exodus/ https://jomageddon.wordpress. | 41 Comments
Industrial outfit Nine Inch Nails has announced a new EP called "Not the Actual Events". Frontman and practically sole member Trent Reznor states it's an "an unexpected left turn from 2013’s Hesitation Marks and sounding unrecognizable from their current film work", as well saying “It’s an unfriendly, fairly impenetrable record that we needed to make. It’s an EP because that ended up being the proper length to tell that story.” The download for this EP will be available on 12/23/16. Along with that, they are re-releasing "Broken", "The Downward Spiral" and "The Fragile" on vinyl.

Hmm, this could be interesting. There were a few great songs on the last album, but I wasn't too big on it.

The Hesitation marks had some really good stuff on it but some of it was pretty lackluster too. Looking forward to hearing what this will be like, though.

Atticus Ross becoming an official Nine Inch Nails member the low key highlight to take from all this.

yeah, just as interested in that 37 track Fragile Deviations thing... looks like it'll be entirely instrumental with a lot of alternate and unreleased material

could be amazing but $80 - yipes!!

Cool, any new stuff from NIN is always welcome, as long as it's not as boring and unfocused as the fragile. Mouaha ah ah ah !

There's this fan remaster of The Fragile that was taken down from YouTube idk how long ago but it basically used the unbrickwalled instrumentals from the instrumental release of the album. Honestly, I don't know how much more different these master tape versions of The Fragile be from those but I'm still hyped af

Pumped for this, but what the fuck is that physical component? If it's a lyric booklet, Trent's diddling us worse than Brand New

Just ordered the new EP and physical component.
There's an option for entirely free shipping. I don't know why. No gift card or anything, it was just there.

Some site said this was only the second EP NIN has put out. The other being Broken. But this site has like 10 EPs between Broken and this one.

well if "some site" said it it's gotta be true.

edit: according to wikipedia there are 4 nin ep's and a shitload of singles. singles and extended plays are lumped together on sputnik. that's why there are so many.

I took the free shipping too. Curious how this works out since I'm in Romania, not in the US. Oh well...

Some of the singles have been released as EPs, but the only one with new material from head to toe (no remixes) was Broken.
