Nine Inch Nails

Ambient
AmbientDark ambientIndustrial

Nine Inch Nails is a Ambient and Dark ambient act. Their catalogue also touches Industrial and Rap. Their sound grew out of Masters of Reality, The Clash, Skinny Puppy, Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress and Meat Beat Manifesto. Those roots explain a lot about how Nine Inch Nails arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, Filter, Ministry, Machines of Loving Grace and Black Light Burns, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Lostprophets, femtanyl, 30 Seconds to Mars, Evanescence and Doctor Steel, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 170 connections around Nine Inch Nails, reaching back through Masters of Reality and forward to Lostprophets.
