Nine Inch Nails Surprise-Release Two New, Free Albums

Nine Inch Nails Just Shared Two New Albums, Ghosts V: Together and Ghosts VI: Locusts

Nine Inch Nails have graced us this with new music this morning. On Thursday, March 26, the group announced two new albums, which were released today and are now available to download for free. Ghosts V: Together and Ghosts VI: Locusts—titles that feel uncannily prescient and apocalyptic—offer up 23 tracks for your social distancing enjoyment.

“Music—whether listening to it, thinking about it or creating it—has always been the thing that helped us get through anything—good or bad. With that in mind, we decided to burn the midnight oil and complete these new Ghosts records as a means of staying somewhat sane,” wrote Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.

“Ghosts V: Together is for when things seem like it might all be okay, and Ghosts VI: Locusts … well, you’ll figure it out,” they added.

The four previous installments of the Ghosts series were released in 2008. More recently, the band dropped EPs including Bad Witch in 2018, Add Violence in 2017 and Not the Actual Events in 2016. Reznor and Ross released the album Hesitation Marks in 2013. The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in January.
