Nine Inch Nails Release ‘Copy Of A’, offer free download for a limited time.
Hot on the heels off their recent Lollapalooza performance, Nine Inch Nails have just released ‘Copy Of A’, the second single off forthcoming album ‘Hesitation Marks’ and a song that went over big at the Chicago music festival (it was the set opener).
Like début single ‘Came Back Haunted‘, ‘Copy of A’ has a shinier, cleaner sound that any Nine Inch Nails release since ‘Pretty Hate Machine.’ It offers a propulsive groove with ethereal synth wails.
Trent Reznor is offering the track as a free download on Amazon for a limited time.

Reznor spoke about the new album’s sound in a recent New York Times Interview, noting; “”It feels sparse, and it feels minimal…It’s hard for me to do that. I’ve realized over the years that if I have 100 tracks, I’ll use 110 tracks. This was really about economy. It was just a weird puzzle of grooves.”
He also noted how his marriage and new child have changed his perspective on his nihilistic worldview of years past; “”I felt very aware that it’s 20 years later, and I’m still that guy,” Reznor said. “I know that guy, and I feel for him. I don’t resent him, I don’t miss him. But how would things feel on the other side of that now, in a much more stable life place, mentally and physically, and with a new family?”
‘Hesitation Marks’ will be released Sept 3rd, 2013 via Columbia Records. Click here for full album (and tour) info, and you can pre-order the album via iTunes or Amazon on the appropriate links below:
