Nine Inch Nails (commonly abbreviated as NIN) was formed in Cleveland, Ohio, circa 1988, and has so far released eleven full-length studio albums, four EPs, seventeen singles, several [[Remixes|remix]] collections, and some live material. Reznor's lyrics are largely concerned with the exploration of the self, but with albums such as ''[[Year Zero]]'' and ''[[The Slip]]'', the lyrical focus shifted somewhat to extrospection. Earlier NIN material was created almost entirely by Reznor, but starting with ''[[The Fragile]]'', he began to allow for a more collaborative writing process involving other players. The sonic ethos of NIN frequently juxtaposes electronic sounds with organic ones, and ugliness with beauty.
After recording a new album, the assembly of a new band usually follows, along with extensive touring; the live component of Nine Inch Nails is largely considered a separate entity from NIN in the recording studio. NIN's live shows often involve visually spectacular elements such as screens and lighting rigs, which have (with more basic elements having been used on the [[Self Destruct Touring Cycle|Self Destruct]], and [[Fragility]]tours, and more sophisticated ones on the With Teeth Arena Tours ([[With Teeth Fall Arena Tour|Fall]] & and [[With Teeth Spring Arena Tour|Spring]])Arena tours, [[Performance 2007]], [[Lights In The Sky Tour|Lights In The Sky]] and [[NIN 2013-2014]] tours, ) and earlier shows would sometimes culminate with the destruction of musical instruments.
