Career

Lohner co-founded the band Angkor Wat in 1986, which later became Skrew. After departing Skrew, he joined NIN in 1993, having secured his own audition. He stated that NIN was his favorite band and he was desperate to be involved in some way. He was acquainted with a mutual friend of Trent Reznor, who then put Lohner in touch with John A. Malm, Jr. around the same time that Richard Patrick had left the band.[1]

Lohner has shared songwriting credits for the NIN songs "The Perfect Drug", "Somewhat Damaged", "Even Deeper", and "And All That Could Have Been". He appears in the music videos for "March Of The Pigs", "Hurt" (live), "Eraser" (live), "Wish" (live), "The Perfect Drug", "Into The Void", and "The Becoming" (Still). On September 8, 2009, Lohner made a guest appearance with NIN on three songs. On September 10, 2009, as NIN was playing the final show of their farewell tour, he sent out a message thanking the band for the "coattail ride," as well as the apparent "rim job." Lohner (along with Richard Patrick, Charlie Clouser and Chris Vrenna) joined NIN onstage for six songs at the Cleveland show of the NIN 2022 tour.

He was also one of the main members of the Tapeworm project. Following his time with NIN, he has worked extensively with A Perfect Circle, produced the Underworld soundtrack, was briefly involved with The Damning Well alongside Richard Patrick and Josh Freese, was a member of Black Light Burns alongside Freese and Josh Eustis, as well as doing various production work for a number of artists.

He is also a prolific remixer, under the name Renholdër ("Re: D. Lohner" backwards). A Perfect Circle has a song called "Renholdër", which has a high-pitched voice saying "Hallelujah, Danny Lohner" 22 seconds in when the song is played backwards. In addition to remix work for bands he has played in, he has also remixed artists such as The Cure, Ministry, Deftones, Perry Farrell, Evanescence, and Linkin Park. He has recently toured with A Perfect Circle's Billy Howerdel and Rammstein's Till Lindemann, and appeared alongside Richard Patrick on the Deadly Apples track "Volatile".
