Any Nine Inch Nails fans who have followed the storied film score career of band members Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross knew that something special was cooking when it was unveiled at the D23 convention last year that they would be handling the score for Tron Ares under the Nine Inch Nails handle.
It was a landmark announcement. Reznor and Ross, the sole official members of the industrial-rock titans, have embarked on an acclaimed, award-winning career as Hollywood composers alongside their work as NiN, but have always released scores under their own names and never crossed the streams. Even when there were soundtracks which sounded very much a part of NiN’s imposing sonic world – their techno-heavy score for the love-triangle tennis psychodrama Challengers or their work for the brilliant Watchmen series – it always remained separate from NiN.
