From what we know, Trent's upcoming North American trek is gonna be an all-out A/V assault, and possibly maybe like nothing you've ever seen: The NYT mentioned Reznor was collaborating with his go-to graphics guy Rob Sheridan and the Montreal-based company Moment Factory to construct three (giant) screens and utilize "disorienting effects" -- including moving "a video frame across a musician [to change] the sound of his guitar" -- in service of making "the stage ... an interactive instrument." Because that sentence is awesome but also gave at least four people seizures simply reading it, this video of NIN rehearsing the The Slip's "1,000,000" is a must-see tour tease. NIN's sounding pretty menacing.
