  • Nine Inch Nails Epic Austin City Limits Debut Special Episode Airs October
    Nine Inch Nails Epic Austin City Limits Debut Special Episode Airs October 18th on PBS Stations Austin, TX— October 16, 2014—Austin City Limits (ACL) presents a rare hour of television with legendary industrial rock titan NINE INCH NAILS. This special encore broadcast, which originally previewed in April as a prelude to the iconic PBS music series 40th anniversary season, airs October 18, 2014. Recently nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, NIN give an arena-worthy performance in their ACL debut. The episode runs Saturday, October 18th at 9pm ET/8pm CT. ACL airs weekly on PBS stations nationwide (check local listings for times) and full episodes are made available online for a limited time at http://video.pbs.org/program/austin-city-limits/ immediately following the initial broadcast. The show's official hashtag is #acltv40. “We've waited a long time to do anything like this,” says NINE INCH NAILS' Trent Reznor from the ACL stage. The episode offers a fascinating look at the influential act's artistry in a flawless performance of unparalleled intensity. NIN's Reznor and the seven-piece band—Alessandro Cortini, Josh Eustis, Robin Finck, Lisa Fischer, Sharlotte Gibson, Pino Palladino and Ilan Rubin—deliver an electrifying hourlong set that is a masterpiece of tension and release. Opening with the sultry “All Time Low” from the critically-acclaimed Hesitation Marks—their first album in five years—the band performs tracks from its recent offering alongside earlier works, including 1999's The Fragile. NIN segue into a revamped version of “Sanctified” from the 1989 debut Pretty Hate Machine, with the vocal duo of Fischer and Gibson adding depth and texture to the pummeling rhythms throughout the song as well as the entire riveting set.
