    It's possible they still hooked up, but they have been on tour. There were a couple of windows when they were in California and had mini-tour-breaks, but they might have been already booked with their own stuff.

    March 9-14 New Zealand
    March 23 Long Beach
    April 3-4 Netherlands
    April 6 France
    April 20-21 Stanford
    April 27 New Hampshire
    etc.

    From the article it doesn't seem to be Kroq exclusive. Maybe it is better to find a station that didn't fuck us over the last time they debuted a TR song?

    Yeah, I agree. It's also cool at the same time. It's right on the edge of "playfully silly" and "extra serious/dramatic", and I think that's a fun place for the single to be. It definitely seems to allow for the creative energy to harken back to earlier NIN.

    I'm definitely thrilled about all of this! I hope this album is the serious body of work that we (and he?) have been waiting to be released, but new Nine Inch Nails is always a great thing. This is exciting.

    Came Back Haunted: the song title connotes graveyards, haunted houses or a return from a journey to a spiritual or emotionally intense place...

    What if Trent's being less than honest again.. and the new NIN album is actually his soundtrack to Ghostbusters III? .. Columbia Records/Pictures.

    I'd like to think it's part 2 of the unreleased track My Dead Friend...

Eliciting the marked truculent force of his 'Downward Spiral' days with the melancholy halcyon of 'Still,' Reznor destroys all misconceptions about what he's been up to these last four years as he screams the opening lines: 'I am woman, hear me roar!' Indeed, Trent. Indeed."

    It's a reference to the comeback tour. Trent will come on stage dressed as a bat. It will be a characture of the last 2 decades of the NIN community that he wants to break away from.

    don't be shocked if there's 12-15 songs on the new album and Belew played on 3 or 4 lol....for all the Belew lovers, when all is said and done, Belew's NIN legacy will rank somewhere in between Ron Musarra and Gary Talpas

    NEW SINGLE: Came Back Haunted

    Living in a vast land of dolphins, the monkey men crept in to sniff the crab cakes of heavens not yet seen. And on that day the dwarf man knew no wrong. He knew that there was wallop of wonderful and it was indeed good. He took that wallop to the main man of yesternothing. The main man was displeased with the dwarf and beat him. Finally he sent the dwarf back on his journey home. The dwarf's whores celebrated his return with a few Doritos Locos tacos. But something was wrong. Their little penis provider was different, changed. He came back haunted...

    This topic got absolutely hilarious real quick.

    I wonder if it's going to have a fast tempo. Would that qualify as having a "dance-y beat"?

    Why does it matter? It was stated that the song does NOT have a "dance-y" beat.

    Love how there's only been the smallest announcement of a new song and there's already 4 pages on it XD

    Over 50% of song titles sound stupid without context.

    This brings me right back to the pre with teeth days. So excited.

    Wait, I thought it said the exact opposite.

    No, I was just remembering it wrong.

    In any case, dial it back, dude, it's just the Internet. Don't establish yourself as a douche less than a month after joining a forum.

    I miss that brief period of time where we only got the news straight from horses mouth. Or when I'd wake up and Ghosts was sold out before I even knew what it was. I still have funny feelings about the whole columbia thing... I'm really not a fan of major labels and all that comes with it.

    also, in keeping with my feelings that Nine Inch Nails never really went away "Came Back Haunted" is kind of an ironic title.

    fingers crossed, though! glad we get to hear it soon.

    I'm not sure what to make of the move back to major label/radio support. I'm not jumping up to call it something pointless like "selling out," but it makes me a bit sad that apparently the various independent experiments weren't really a success. It's kind of depressing that even someone as firmly established as Trent Reznor cannot find a way to make it work, and that it's basically an admission that the major labels and original institution still do serve a legitimate purpose, even to the people who it would seem need them the least. He's gone from self-distribution and no label with tracks "leaked" to The Pirate Bay to quietly returning to the major label approach to everything.

    I don't hold it against him, but it's telling and more than just a little bit discouraging.

    Has he, though? He might have a whole lot of control at Columbia... even more then I guess he had at Interscope. Columbia might be a glorified distribution / promotion center for him, with no creative control. Isn't that exactly what we'd all want a major label to be? Maybe they think his stint as an independent artist was so successful they made the deal on his terms.

    That's always how I took the news of NIN returning to a label. I do wish Trent was more forthcoming on the decision through as he trumpeted his departure from 'the system' in early '08.
    I don't think he'd make a deal where he was having to argue over the quality of paper in a booklet again (like with Interscope).
    I'd like to think the deal is that Columbia distribute and market and take a small cut and "don't make more money from Trent Reznor than Trent Reznor"

    I have no doubt that his contract with Columbia is a fantastic one. I'm certain he'll maintain unobstructed artistic control. He has the clout to secure that leverage... although I'm still perplexed why he's bothering with KROQ. They're about as relevant as MTV at this point.

    What I'm a bit bummed out by is that the DIY gesture has more or less fizzled out as a result of the move back to the major label approach. The sentiment behind what he was doing before seemed to be a fairly impressive "fuck you" to the industry. Sure, you need existing clout to have that gesture register on any real level, but it still means something. I guess part of the hope of most music fans was that it would pan out to prove a legitimate success, establishing that label backing was unnecessary or even anachronistic for someone with that stature. I think a lot of people are genuinely concerned about the future of the music industry, and not just with regards to whether or not it will continue to be profitable for the artists. A lot has been hinging on the issue, and I'd be interested to hear him say why he chose to go back... and I guess I'd hope the answer wouldn't be "it's easier, they handle the advertising and other bullshit I don't want to deal with, and in the end I make more money."

    Still, I expect that the answer is probably something like that (more or less). I'm not casting judgment, I get it, I think it's completely reasonable. I just think it's a little bit of a let down.

    New big label backing didn't win him a lot of point in my eyes because i still can't buy "Welcome Oblivion" in my town, only have to order from abroad, wait 3-5 weeks and hope it arrives in one piece. Same with new nin album, i have a bad feeling about international releases.
