After the album Hesitation Marks from 2013, based on more electronic sounds, Nine Inch Nails surprised the fans in 2016 with a harder EP “Not the Actual Events”. Trent Reznor, the music brain behind Nine Inch Nails announced on Friday good news for all fans. They will release on July 21st another EP with the name “Add Violence” that features 5 new songs with another sound direction than the previous EP. Already today, you can check out the first song “Less Than” which includes already more synthetic sounds than in the last previous EP.
In my opinion, the first song with the name “Less Than” is Trent Reznor’s response and interpretation to the Synthwave style.
Add Violence finds Nine Inch Nails becoming more accessible and impenetrable at the same time. The sonic palette expands significantly from Not The Actual Events, incorporating elements of beauty into the dark dissonance. The Narrative are liking the three records begins to emerge through the disassociated lyrics and the provocative and clue-filled cover artwork and accompanying physical component, available exclusively through the NIN store.
