Nine Inch Nails to go on indefinite hiatus

nin.com

In NIN world, 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of our first releases. I've been thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while. Last year's "Lights in the Sky" tour was something I'm quite proud of and seems like the culmination of what I could pull off in terms of an elaborate production. It was also quite difficult to pull off technically and physically night after night and left us all a bit dazed. After some thought, we decided to book a last run of shows across the globe this year. The approach to these shows is quite different from last year - much more raw, spontaneous and less scripted. Fun for us and a different way for you to see us and wave goodbye. I reached out to Jane's to see if they'd want to join us across the US and we all felt it could be a great thing. Will it work? Will it resonate in the marketplace? Who knows. Is there big record label marketing dollars to convince you to attend? Nope.
Does it feel right to us and does it seem like it will be fun for us and you? Yes it does.
Look for tour dates soon and I hope to see you out there.

Trent


im not a fan so meh, but seems there a few fans on the .org that should know.

Uhhh Trent has been basically solo since day one, so I'm not sure what you mean. He just has guest musicians perform with him.

I'm a huge NIN fan, but I can understand him wanting to take a long break. After two albums in such a short timespan, that is perfectly reasonable.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
