NIN rock their last show ever

Nine Inch Nails

Last week marked the final show by Nine Inch Nails. Trent Reznor and band mates, including bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen, rocked out in Los Angeles at Wiltern Theater for a full house of more than 2,200 fans. It’s been 20 years since Reznor released his first album. Reznor took Meldal-Johnson, guitarist Robin Finck and drummer Ilan Rubin through a 3 hour 38-song set list that took their best known work from The Slip (released as a free download this past May) and 1999’s The Fragile.

Reznor commented “This is it… We’re not going to tour anymore as Nine Inch Nails, but we’re all still going to be making music.”

Meldal-Johnson was the bassist for Beck before joining Nine Inch Nails. There has not been any news of his next project.

    Trent Reznor doesn't really have 'bandmates'. He is the only true member of the group. Other players who preform on stage are hired on a tour-by-tour basis.
