Nine Inch Nails - The Lovers Live Performance at Primavera Sound Los Angeles
Before their live performance at Primavera Sound in Los Angeles on September 17, 2022, Nine Inch Nails had released the critically acclaimed EP "Ghosts V: Together" and "Ghosts VI: Locusts" in 2020. This marked a return to their experimental roots, showcasing a more ambient and atmospheric sound that contrasts with their earlier, more aggressive work. Interestingly, 2022 also saw a significant evolution in the band's lineup, with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross embracing innovative directions in their music, including film scoring. Fans were particularly excited as this performance was part of their first tour since the pandemic pause, featuring selections that spanned their diverse catalog. The outdoor venue added a unique flavor to the experience, engaging audiences in an immersive atmosphere, while Reznor's haunting vocals and the band's signature industrial sound reminded everyone why they’re a staple in alternative music.
