I know a number of you are fellow Nine Inch Nails fans, so you might be interested to know that in the beginning of this year Reznor mentioned the possibility of new material in 2016. Many speculations throughout the year as Reznor and long time collaborator Atticus Ross completed two film soundtracks, but no actual NIN material. This Friday, he actually delivers on his promise, as Trent (one man band) Reznor officially welcomes Ross as a NIN partner and releases an EP, Not the Actual Events.

The new album is self published and you can buy it from them directly. They are selling it as an exclusive vinyl with digital download, or a digital download with a mysterious "physical component" which looks like a black brick. No mentions on what the physical component actually is, but NIN never disappoints with packaging.

In addition, NIN is releasing remastered collections of all their previous albums along with a special cut of The Fragile.

Yeah I am a huge fan and I saw this and am looking forward to Friday. Love Atticus Ross too.

Already got my order in for the digital download + physical component :up:

Wish he would release more stuff on SACD though :(

I was holding out hope that Reznor would follow through with his 2016 release. :up:

Hey look, I got an ominous black envelope in the mail! 10x7". It's black like the monolith, it beckons me to open it and I must obey.



Whoa! Giant warning label on the back!



Contents of package in spoiler:
6 cards, a transparent acetate sheet photo of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, lots of black powder (probably graphite) and it's fucking everywhere! Apparently, different people have been getting different sets of cards.

If you're going to open it, I would just slit to top of the envelope. The sticker is almost impossible to peel back and the envelope flap is glued down. I fucked mine up.

Good advice. Currently, I've not even removed it from its plastic bag.
