'''The Spiral''' was the official fan club for [[Nine Inch Nails]]. It featured message boards, exclusive photographs, exclusive videos, and Q&A chat sessions with the band. The Spiral was started in June 2005 and featured two levels: Standard and Premium. It was shut down in 2009.
==Membership details==
The Standard membership had an annual fee of $30 in the United States ($35 international) and included:
*A membership card
*Early entrance to concerts at the Spiral entrance
In the The Spiral's second year of operation, membership prices were reduced to $25 and $55, worldwide.
An exclusive members-only NIN show was performed on [[2006/03/31 Cabazòn, CA|March 31, 2006]], during the [[With Teeth Spring Arena Tour]]. The soundcheck from this date was also streamed at The Spiral website.
==Changes and closure==
In 2007, a message was posted on the Spiral page stating:
<blockquote>after much thought and discussion, we've decided to give [[nin.com]] and the spiral a drastic overhaul/upgrade. over the next 6-7 months, we'll be preparing for the launch of the new nin.com/spiral (merged) site. we will not be accepting any new memberships during this time. the spiral will remain "as is" and all existing memberships will remain valid. be prepared</blockquote>
