Love the title, booked tickets for Reading in August, it's all sinking in now. Hope the single is online before night time in the UK, don't want to wait till Friday
I'd like to take this opportunity to remind folks that last time KROQ did the debut thing (Immigrant Song) the track was not aired on the online stream, and was exclusive to the airwaves.
It'll be 19.30 UK time.
Came Back Haunted sounds a wee bit Strobe Light :P
But yay, new NIN!
Yea, "Came Back Haunted" just doesn't sound like a NIN track. Maybe that's because it wasn't a NIN track for 23 years. When I quickly read the posting, I thought that was the person's description of their experience of previewing the track (I came back haunted!). I'm sure it will all make sense when we hear it or see how it falls into the rest of the album.
this last two weeks has been one of the best in music for me!!
One disadvantage of being a on a major label, this info leaked ahead of time. I'm assuming Trent would have rather just had it drop on Thursday unannounced as a surprise. Remember Discipline coming out of nowhere (aside from a vague hint about something coming in two weeks)?
Trent Reznor: did Ghosts, came back haunted
hmmmmmmm so very curious...According to Los Angeles radio station KROQ, the song is titled “Came Back Haunted” and will premiere Thursday at 2:30pm ET/11:30pm PT. KROQ’s Program Director Lisa Worden says the song “harkens back to early Nine Inch Nails,” adding, “I think it’s in line with the first two albums. It’s got a great beat, it’s not the experimental material Trent’s done in the last five years.”
Sweet! Sounds dance-y with a good beat? Cool. I miss the NIN's.
“I think it’s in line with the first two albums."
Um, what? PHM and TDS are completely(ish) different though?
A throwback to Pretty Hate Machine and Downward Spiral? Now I'm even more excited for this album to come out!
I will do my best to record it since I happen to live in KROQ range. Will be working at that time but will try to rig something up in advance -- sure by then someone will already beat me to it.
Well, there goes my Thursday plans.
Hopefully this means an online/iTunes release tomorrow sometime as well.
I saw that thread on the first page of ETS and I thought the song had been released today. I was so happy!
And then I found out it's going to come out Thursday.
I hate all of you.
Okay, not really.
I'm going to go sleep until Thursday now.
Meanwhile, here's our new and only "song witness" Lisa Worden AKA (https://twitter.com/Peachy67) on how she operates and programs KROQ:
