'''Columbia Records''' is the label that [[How To Destroy Angels]] signed with in 2012 to release ''[[An Omen EP]]'' and ''[[Welcome Oblivion (album)|Welcome Oblivion]]'' and [[Nine Inch Nails]] signed with in 2013 to release ''[[Hesitation Marks]]'' and its accompanying singles.
After How To Destroy Angels signed with the label in 2012, [[Trent Reznor]] made the following statement about why he had chosen to return to a major label[http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20121022/00013120781/trent-reznor-talks-to-techdirt-about-his-unconventional-new-record-deal-why-he-still-loves-diy.shtml]:
<blockquote>"The main reason I do what I do is I want to do something that matters. I want to be able to create art that reaches the maximum amount of people on my terms.... That was a key component... That was why we wound up considering, and ultimately going with, a label, and not just a label, but a major label, for How to Destroy Angels. Because it came down to us -- us being the band now -- sitting around and identifying what our goals were. And the top priority wasn't to make money. It was to try to reach the most amount of people, and try to reach the most amount of people effectively, that doesn't feel like it's coming completely from my backyard. Because I don't want this project, ultimately, to just be dismissed as "side project" or... (*loud sigh*) "patronizing affair with Trent and his wife." Sounds terrible, you know?"</blockquote>
