Nine Inch Nails played a special live surprise set at The TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles, CA yesterday, October 06th, as part of the world premiere for the new film ‘Tron: Ares‘. The acclaimed industrial metal outfit composed the score/soundtrack for that film, releasing that 24-track outing for it last month.
Boys Noize, a frequent touring companion with the band throughout the year, as well as a past collaborator, joined the group for this brief set. The performance included the live debut of two songs from the aforementioned soundtrack, “Forked Reality” and “Shadow Over Me“.
The band’s latest single from that score/soundtrack “As Alive As You Need Me To Be” was also played, as was a remixed version of the 2007 “Year Zero” track “The Warning” with some assistance from Boys Noize.
‘Tron: Ares‘ stars Jared Leto, Evan Peters and more and is scheduled to open in theaters this Friday, October 10th. While Nine Inch Nails were able to to shine a spotlight on their cinematic ventures in a live capacity yesterday, it was recently revealed that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross‘ live celebration of music in film and TV, the ‘Future Ruins‘ festival, has been canceled.
