Nine Inch Nails officially returned earlier this year with their soundtrack work for Tron: Ares, marking the band’s first new release since 2020’s ambient albums Ghosts V: Together and Ghosts VI: Locusts. Now, it sounds like that return was only the beginning.
In a new interview with Consequence, Trent Reznor revealed that he and longtime collaborator Atticus Ross are actively working on new Nine Inch Nails material, and that the project is once again a top priority.
“We are working on new stuff and we’re excited to work on it,” Reznor said. “We are prioritizing working on Nine Inch Nails over just taking on every single thing that comes up in the other category.”
Reznor, who has spent much of the past decade scoring films and television alongside Ross, suggested a renewed creative energy behind Nine Inch Nails specifically. “Beyond that, I can’t say much, but the difference between now and a year ago is the fuse has been lit and the desire is there.”
For fans who have been waiting since Ghosts V and Ghosts VI, that spark may finally be turning into something substantial.
Speaking of Nine Inch Nails in 2026, they’ve got the second leg of their North America Peel It Back Tour coming up in February. Unfortunately the Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross-headed festival Future Ruins was cancelled, but hey – the aforementioned tour is still on. Get your tickets here.
