NIN Dazzles With Lasers, LEDs and Stealth Screens
By Bryan Gardiner



"A vast wall of swirling static dances appears on a giant screen as Trent Reznor and his band launch into their song, "Only." Initially obscured by this sea of visual white noise, the Nine Inch Nails front man intermittently appears to push through the particles of snow with his hands and body, popping in and out of view and opening up random tunnels in the chaos.

"Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself," he sings.

Nine Inch Nails fans are accustomed to such sonic and visual feasts whenever Reznor and company go out on tour. But this time around, NIN has pulled out all the stops, creating a groundbreaking, fully interactive visual display that is as much a part of the show as the band's instruments."

My god, this show is downright orgasmic. They describe how it is all done in this article, and it makes it so much more awesome that a lot of the show is interactive and controlled by the band as they play. Check out the video in the article and see how f'ing awesome I really mean. Anyone want to go with me to see the show in Columbia November 21st?
