Nine Inch Nails Release Heavy New Track 'Burning Bright'

Earlier this week Nine Inch Nails announced a new EP, Not the Actual Events, set to be released this week and on Wednesday the band released a track from the new disc called 'Burning Bright'.

The new Nine Inch Nails song goes back to the bands Industrial-Metal roots, and puts that into overdrive. Kinda like Ministry. The song itself is pretty cool and simple and could easily be mistaken for the ending credits of a horror movie, or a leftover from the movie Blade.

Sweet.

The video itself is reminiscent of something you might see as background during a NIN concert during it's performance, though it's just a bunch of static.

Regardless, it's good to see Nine Inch Nails going back to their roots. The group created a niche in the late eighties/early nineties with their blend of industrial metal. Albums like Pretty Hate Machine (which featured the single Head Like a Hole) and The Downward Spiral (featuring songs like March of the Pigs) and their live concerts made the group one of the most innovate acts of the nineties.

The groups millenial records such as Hesitation Marks featured less heavy guitars, if at all.
