Nine Inch Nails Expand Acclaimed Peel it Back Tour with a Stop at Fiserv Forum on Feb. 23
Tickets on sale Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 12 p.m. CT
MILWAUKEE (Oct. 1, 2025) – Nine Inch Nails expands its North American leg of its critically acclaimed Peel It Back Tour, stopping at Fiserv Forum on Feb. 23. Produced by Live Nation, the highly successful run has brought next-level production to its shows across Europe and North America. Friend and collaborator Boys Noize will join the band again on all upcoming dates. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 12 p.m. at www.fiservforum.com.
On Sept. 19th, Nine Inch Nails released TRON: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) via Interscope Records. It debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and No. 1 on the Soundtrack, Vinyl , Current Alternative and Current Electronic albums charts. The album marks the first-ever film score by the pioneering group. As a work by Nine Inch Nails, TRON: Ares is a bracing departure from the acclaimed scores that bandmates Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have composed under their own names, which have won two Oscars, three Golden Globes, a GRAMMY and an Emmy. TRON: Ares’ architecture in sound: pulsating synths, distorted textures and haunting melodies. Not one second of orchestra – instead, the album erupts with the full force of Nine Inch Nails, breaking boundaries and humming with menace, melancholy and momentum as analog soul and digital dread collide. Listen HERE. See below for track listing. Disney’s TRON: Ares releases in U.S. theaters on Oct. 10. Reznor and Ross served as Executive Producers on the film.
The New York Times hailed lead single “AS ALIVE AS YOU NEED ME TO BE” as “a return to the buzz-bomb synthesizers, stomping march beat, stereo ricochets and gut-wrenching vocals of the band’s heyday.” The track debuted at No. 1 on both the Official Physical Singles and the Official Vinyl Singles charts in the U.K. earlier this month. Stateside, with the single’s ascent into the top 10 of Billboard’s Alternative Airplay tally, Nine Inch Nails has the distinction of charting top 10 hits across four decades from the 1990s to the 2020s.
Earlier this year, Reznor and Ross announced Future Ruins, a one-day music festival created and curated by the duo. Celebrating the visionary composers shaping the sound of modern cinema and television, the event features live performances across three stages, including select sets with full orchestra. Held on Nov. 8, 2025, at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center, Future Ruins invites audiences to experience the duo’s groundbreaking score work—and that of their peers—not as background, but as the main event. The music tells the story. This event also marks the first time Reznor and Ross will perform their score work live. Tickets are on sale now at www.FutureRuins.com.
In 2008, Reznor and Ross launched a prolific career in composing music for film. Their first project, David Fincher’s “The Social Network,” earned the pair an Oscar and a Golden Globe. They’ve gone on to compose music for a diverse array of film and television projects, including the “Watchmen” series for HBO, which earned the duo an Emmy for Outstanding Music Composition for a series. Their score for the 2020 animated Pixar film “Soul” won numerous awards, including an Oscar, GRAMMY, Golden Globe and British Academy Film Award. In the same year, their score for Fincher’s “MANK” received nominations for many of the same awards. Recent projects have included Sam Mendes’ “Empire of Light,” Fincher’s “The Killer” and a trio of projects with director Luca Guadagnino – “Bones” and “All, Challengers” and “Queer.”
