Nine Inch Noize Debuts at Coachella with Album Release

Nine Inch Nails and electronic producer Boys Noize unveiled their collaborative project, Nine Inch Noize, with a live debut performance at the first weekend of Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, on Saturday night. The self-titled debut album from the duo, featuring Nine Inch Nails members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross alongside Boys Noize, whose real name is Alexander Ridha, arrives Friday via Interscope Records, just before the project's second and final Coachella set on Saturday.

The 12-track release reimagines Nine Inch Nails classics in a more electronic style, including "Vessel," "She's Gone Away," "Heresy," "Copy of A," "Me, I'm Not," "Closer," "The Warning," "Came Back Haunted" and the TRON: Ares soundtrack cut "As Alive as You Need Me to Be." It also features reworked versions of How to Destroy Angels' "Parasite" and Soft Cell's "Memorabilia," following the same sequence as the Coachella setlist. Reznor, Ross and Ridha recorded the material in varied settings, from studios and hotels to planes and live sessions. "We had a lot of fun revisiting these songs and hope you enjoy. Listen LOUD," Reznor said in a statement.
