Nine Inch Nails has given fans something to believe in. The industrial rock juggernaut surprise dropped new song “As Alive As You Need Me to Be” on Thursday (July 17), and also announced that the Tron: Ares soundtrack will be arriving on Sept. 19 via Interscope Records.
The dance-floor ready song — the band’s first new music in five years — invokes electronic duo Justice. The track is co-produced by Boys Noize, who is currently the opening act on NIN’s Peel It Back world tour and also worked with the band to remix the Challengers score.
“As Alive As You Need Me to Be” is the first single from the Tron: Ares soundtrack, which will feature all-new music from the Grammy-winning band fronted by Trent Reznor. Though NIN did not officially announce the song ahead of its arrival, fans suspected new music was on the way when some spotted a new T-shirt being sold at recent shows — currently in Europe — about 10 days ago, sporting the words “as alive as you need me to be.” The band itself also shared a shot of the shirt on its Instagram Stories on July 8 with no further information.
The soundtrack is available for pre-order now, and the film hits theaters on Oct. 10.
