I'm having trouble finding this news from any other source than Pitchfork. Any other confirmations/links?
Edit: Okay, it's true. It was just odd that Pitchfork was the only place reporting it, and with it being such terrific news I wanted to make sure 10000000% before I let myself get too excited.

Was wondering how long it'd take for a new thread. Batten down the hatches! New album = Server overload time. (until the album drops and they all go away again, that is...)
Holy crap! I was just getting off work from my new job today and I guess I was driving home when the news broke. This is awesome!!
look at http://www.columbiarecords.com
They seem to confirm it too.
Kind of odd that the "More Information Here" link on there leads to nin.com which doesn't have any more information yet.
Edit: Not odd in a suspicious way, just odd that they hadn't updated nin.com yet. My guess is somebody got their timing wrong, & things should be official "soon"

I hope there's some legitimacy to this! my hunch is that the wave of festival touring will be to raise money for the real tour that he wants us to see. With the work that he's been spending on HTDA over the past year or so, he's probably been inspired from the whole presentation aspect. Really looking forward to seeing how this turns out...and there goes any financial plans I had in 2014
Ah guys, you can probably believe Pitchfork. You think they'd make this up?
Somehow, I'm not too surprised. I kinda saw that one coming.
But still, how great/weird is this ... There actually IS a new NIN album existing now. Wonder what it sounds like.
Ninternet explodes!!!!! Can't wait..... I knew it.
Confirmed via the official Twitter.
Aaand bricks were shat. Funny actually, today was the first I've loaded NIN onto my mp3 player in a few months. Fitting.
Billboard posted right after the NIN twitter:

Yep, pretty sure pitchfork didn't make it up and have Columbia stick a big NIN label on their website. Have the doubters finally learned to pick up on TR's hints yet? They said there would be no tour even though TR made it all but certain during the reddit session. He hinted that he was recording more material than just a couple greatest hits tracks too; did you really think there wouldn't be any new music to tour with when he has had over a year to work on it (Welcome Oblivion was basically completed in Feb. 2012)?

Thumbs up to the surprise element of this. As good as Trent can be to his fans it's a cool change of pace to not know exactly what he's doing all the time musically.
So maybe June 6th it is for a single, and tour dates.
Yes!!!! Fuck Yea I'm excited. Hopefully its not too far down the road.

This news makes me wanna soar.....
I'm gonna be honest with you guys, I nearly started crying when I saw this. My year = made.
YES!! First Queens now NIN.
I guess I shouldn't have sounded so harsh. He did outright lie in an interview recently and state that there was no new material for the tour. There were other hints that something was coming though (working with his hero; kronos quartet tweet about working on new NIN) and I don't think people should be too surprised. It's just that some people around here thought it was the most ridiculous thing ever to think that a new EP or LP could be coming.

Seriously, this year has been crazy for music. New albums from Daft Punk, My Bloody Valentine, Boards of Canada, Kanye West, Sigur Ros.....and now Nine Inch Nails! On top of the fact I'm finally going to see Bjork, Neutral Milk Hotel and Death Grips live. 2013 is incredible!
Oh my fuck!
Pretty damned good year in music, I must say. I'm excited.
Time to reinforce my bank account!.
Fuck yes! I'm psyched as hell!
What I'm most curious about at this point is the artwork. nin.com looks classy, but totally stripped down so I'm looking forward to Rob revealing the artwork step by step on a new page (probably why the official forum is getting a revamp).
O Trent you sneaky ol' bastard!
IT HAS BEGUN!!!
I am sooooo ready for this.
