Nine Inch Nails will bring their ferocious show to the extraordinary venue for these unmissable shows, set within the stunning grounds of the Eden Project, which has seen past performances from the likes of Pulp, PJ Harvey, Muse, Oasis and Queens Of The Stone Age. In other news, Nine Inch Nails was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, headquartered in Cleveland, alongside Depeche Mode, The Doobie Brothers, Whitney Houston, The Notorious B.I.G., and T. Rex back in 2020.
NIN bring their show, hailed by The Guardian as ‘saw toothed,‘ with the ‘ferocity of a Rottweiler gnashing through its muzzle, bathed in exquisite monochromatic lighting and smoke’ to the lush grounds described by The Times, according to a press release as ‘Magical…half Glastonbury, half Glydnenbourne’ and of which the Evening Standard wrote ‘The nearest you can get to watching a gig on the moon.’ It seems that the band are keeping up their tradition of playing only the grandest, most elaborate venues whenever they come to the UK. Their last show at The Royal Albert Hall saw them go through a career-spanning setlist of 23 songs, anticipation for the Eden Project shows couldn’t be higher.
NIN has also announced an 11 date US tour to accompany the Eden Project dates. Their first tour since 2018, will take them around North America to the likes of Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the Cleveland Blossom Music Center, and a few festival appearances like Primavera Sound LA, and Atlanta’s Shaky Knees Festival. While this announcement came with no other UK dates or any new music since the band’s double album (Ghosts V: Together and Ghosts VI: Locusts), both may well be on the horizon quite soon. Who knows? If you’re desperate for some new Trent Reznor music though, you may be (weirdly enough) swayed by the most recent Halsey album, If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power. Reznor lent a producing hand to the album, and between this and Halsey’s standard empowering sound, the project exceeded the expectations of many.
