Today, Nine Inch Nails unveiled the official music video for their new single, “As Alive As You Need Me To Be.” The striking visual, directed by Maxime Quoilin, evokes the sense of escalating pressure heard in the song, drawing on the lyric “All these hands have got a hold of me.” Ryan Hahn served as producer and mtla.studio provided creative direction.

“As Alive As You Need Me To Be” – hailed by The New York Times as “a return to the buzz-bomb synthesizers, stomping march beat, stereo ricochets and gut-wrenching vocals of the band’s heyday” – is the first single from TRON: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) – and the first official music from the band in five years. Listen to “As Alive As You Need Me To Be”  below…
