Geheel onverwacht en onaangekondigd komen onze beste vrienden Trent Reznor en Atticus Ross op de proppen met een vervolg van Ghost I - IV het vierdelige album uit 2008 dat 2 Grammy nominaties kreeg. De Ghost-serie zou voor Trent en Atticus de deur open zetten naar een hele reeks soundtracks, waaronder The Social Network waarvoor ze zelfs een Oscar kregen.
Trent tweette "Anybody out there? New Nine Inch Nails out now. Ghosts V–VI. Hours and hours of music. Free. Some of it kind of happy, some not so much."
Concept blijft deze keer hetzelfde, soundtrack voor dagdromen. Zeker in deze periode een zeer welgekomen geschenk. Uren muziek inderdaad, want sommige tracks zijn zelfs 13 minuten lang.
Rolling Stone Magazine kwam niet geheel onterecht met deze titel op de proppen:
"Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Ghosts V and VI’ Combine Hope With Shadows for a Soundtrack to a World in Crisis"
En aangezien het gratis is zou ik zeggenm, downloaden of streamen!
Of luister hierboven naar de openingstrack.
Releasedatum: 26 maart 2020

Friends-
Weird times indeed…
As the news seems to turn ever more grim by the hour, we’ve found ourselves vacillating wildly between feeling like there may be hope at times to utter despair – often changing minute to minute. Although each of us define ourselves as antisocial-types who prefer being on our own, this situation has really made us appreciate the power and need for CONNECTION.
Music – whether listening to it, thinking about it or creating it – has always been the thing that helped us get through anything – good or bad. With that in mind, we decided to burn the midnight oil and complete these new Ghosts records as a means of staying somewhat sane.
Ghosts V: Together is for when things seem like it might all be okay, and Ghosts VI: Locusts… well, you’ll figure it out.
It made us feel better to make these and it feels good to share them. Music has always had a way of making us feel a little less alone in the world… and hopefully it does for you, too. Remember, everyone is in this thing together and this too shall pass.
We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Be smart and safe and take care of each other.
With love, Trent & Atticus
