Nine Inch Nails

On May 24, 2009, during their performance of "The Becoming" at the Sasquatch Festival, Nine Inch Nails was in a transitional phase of their career. This performance came shortly after the release of their album "The Slip" in May 2008, which was notable for being the band's first self-released work and was made available for free download. The festival performance also followed the band's announcement of their plans for a hiatus, beginning after their 2009 tour, making this a significant moment in their history. The band, led by Trent Reznor, had established a reputation for their innovative use of technology in live performances, and this recording showcases their commitment to a high-quality audio-visual experience, as it was filmed by Rob Sheridan with professional equipment. This performance stands out in their discography, encapsulating the band's unique blend of industrial rock and electronic music at a time when they were reevaluating their presence in the music industry.
