NINE INCH NAILS IN CONCERT:
Industrial rock, once a low-flying genre on pop culture’s radar, catapulted to mainstream popularity with the early ‘90s rise of Nine Inch Nails. Although Trent Reznor is the only official member of the group, the band’s rotating lineup doesn't disappoint, bringing a fresh perspective to NIN’s heralded catalog with every performance. Reznor’s live shows are just as fully realized as his studio recordings, with intense lighting effects, mesmerizing video displays, and a big dose of raw energy. Back on the road for a highly anticipated tour in 2014, fans can expect plenty of experimental synths and heavy instrumentation as the band work their way through classics like “Closer” and newer material from their 2013 album Hesitation Marks.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Nine Inch Nails is the brainchild of frontman and producer Trent Reznor, who started the project in 1988 as the sole instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter for the band. Described by Spin Magazine as "the most vital artist in music," Nine Inch Nails have lived up to this standard, selling over 20 million albums worldwide over the course of their decade-spanning career. With eight studio albums, 13 Grammy nominations, and two Grammy wins under their belt, Nine Inch Nails are widely credited for bringing industrial rock into the mainstream. After releasing their eighth studio album Hesitation Marks in 2013 – an exciting new minimalist direction for the band — Nine Inch Nails hit the road once again to deliver hard-hitting performances on their 2014 tour.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"It was AMAZING. Nine Inch Nails were literally unforgettable. The light shows were awe-inspiring. Trent Reznor sounded amazing, and the set list was pretty much perfect. If NIN ever comes back into town, I'll be buying another ticket. Going to his concert was hands-down, one of the best nights of my life!"
"First time NIN concert and I was very impressed. Excellent music and very entertaining."
"I've been a long-time Nine Inch Nails fan and Trent Reznor and his bandmates did an amazing job. I would watch them over and over if I could. They sound exactly like the music they make in the studio."
Great sound at the ACC even though we didn't get the greatest seats. I have been to a lot of concerts and this was one of my most expensive one to do date. With that saying I have never seen the stage NIN used before. Great light show and music, wasn't too heavy for my g/f and she enjoyed it as well for her first NIN concert.
Coming from Canada to visit New York city, seeing this concert was an amazing experience. The Barclays Center is a perfect spot for a concert, the sound quality was astounding. Nine inch nails put on a spectacular show between the songs chosen, the light show and intensity. I couldnt of asked for a better concert. Only downside is that I wish the opening band was a bit better.
Nine inch nails is one of those rare and special concerts that I was truly grateful to be apart of. The show was amazing and the sound and lights really brought out the essence of what a nine inch nails show is suppose to be. My brothers and friend loved it and can now say they experienced the great Trent Reznor and crew. I look forward to hopeful future shows to come.
6th time seeing them, Least favorite show. Good stage and lighting as expected from Trent, IMO not so great setlist. Copy of A was by far a disappointing opening song for me never got me into the show. To many songs I never wanted to see live, This was my first time for me not being in the pit, and i kept thinking sure glad im not cause i dont feel like standing for most of this(Not good for a NIN concert). Still had a great night out for a good price. this could very well be the last time I get to see them and wouldn't miss it.
This was the 5th time that I saw NIN and I swear that each tour just gets better than the last. Trent is an amazing artist and performs his heart out. This is a must see tour.
Always an exception show with Trent. Different members but still the same great show.
I have never been to a better concert. The ingenious use of modern technology brought the audience member into a journey of musical enlightenment. I hope Trent continues to make music for many many years; each record he has produced has been fantastic and unique to all the others. I can't stop listening to Hesitation Marks.
I took my 15 yr old daughter because she says today"s music sucks. Great music good crowd.
Loved nine inch nails! Great sound, great show! The seats weren't the best but still had a great time, Trent put on a great show.
This is my 7th time seeing NIN and this show reminded me of the "Lights in the Sky" tour, moments of high energy greatness followed by long stretches of songs that just are not what I want to see live, too long and drawn out. The show didn't seem to flow, not a good sign when you're checking the time during the show. Also not a fan of the screen in front of the band, I WANT to see the band when I go to a show. I was really psyched before the show, but left feeling "meh".
This was the only concert I have ever walked out on.
TRENT AND THE GUYS PUT ON AN AWESOME SHOW GOING FULL TILT FROM START TO FINISH THERE WAS NOT A BAD MOMENT THE WHOLE NIGHT EXCEPT THE SUPPORT GROUP WHO SUCKED THE BIG ONE.
The opening band played for 45 minutes, and the sound never changed. It was the same thing for the whole set. BORING. NIN was NIN.
Great show. Excellent light show. I have seen NIN in concert several times and the concert is always fantastic.
Absolutely awesome concert! Trent did not fail to please, lots of classics plus awesome new stuff (although we didn't get to hear "Closer"!), very entertaining show. ACC was great, easy to get in and out of, organized and great staff! Can't wait to see NIN again!
FANTASTIC !!!! NIN ALWAYS PUTS ON AN AMAZING SHOW !!!! TRENT REZNOR AND HIS MUSICIANS NEVER EVER EVER DISSAPOINT !!!!! GREAT TO SEE THEM BACK ON STAGE !!!! AND IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE THAT TRENT HAD THE 2 FEMAILE BACK UP SINGERS .... THEY WERE BEYOND FANTASTIC .. THEIR SOUND WAS INCREDIBLE!! THANKS NIN, FOR A GREAT NIGHT!!!
NIN never disappoints!! Trent Reznor is amazing!! He can put on a show like no other!!
My first concert was with NIN back in 2008. It was an amazing experience and Trent shows it again.
I like NIN but I found myself disappointed with this concert! I'm not sure if it was just me. After one hour and fifteen minutes of music I didn't recognize, I left. Probably all new music. The light show made it very hard to even see the band. At one point in time a screen came down and hid the band but added more effects. I'm sure there were those that liked it but it wasn't my cup of tea!
This show was simply mind blowing! First, Explosions in the Sky were amazing, emotional and a tight team. What a great way to intro into NIN's set. Trent and the team were perfect. Whoever did the lighting and stage production deserves an award for innovation - it's like nothing I've ever seen before. I loved the set list and I've never heard a more thunderous applause for an encore then that night. The crowd was deafening! Having the gospel-y background singers was a really smart compliment and a great way to enhance the songs. Can't wait for NIN's return to Toronto. I'll be there :)
