"I was planning on taking some time off after the continual waves of touring that ended last fall and spend this year experimenting around with what would become How To Destroy Angels and some new NIN. Well, that plan didn't work out so well. David Fincher started inquiring about my interest in scoring his upcoming film, The Social Network. Yeah, the movie about the founding of Facebook. I've always loved David's work but quite honestly I wondered what would draw him to tell that story. When I actually read the script and realized what he was up to, I said goodbye to that free time I had planned. Atticus Ross and I have been on a creative roll so I asked him if he wanted to work on this with me and we signed on.

Speaking of the film... it's really fucking good. And dark!"

"This is what Atticus and I have been working on for the last few months. We had a great time working with David Fincher on this and the film turned out excellent - something we're very proud of. It opens in theaters Oct 1 and you should check it out.

Regarding the purchase options, sorry about the "clunkiness" of not offering the full record digital download pre-sale (and having to visit Amazon). My agenda was to be able to offer this for the lowest possible price and this was the best way to achieve that. Amazon has been a great partner with past projects and I appreciate your understanding."

==Promotion==On For the album's official [http://www.facebook.com/TSNsoundtrack?v=wall&ref=mf Facebook page]cover, <!-- Irony noted -->a promotion for I needed to represent the branding of the movie was created on September 22ndfilm, offering fans but neither Trent nor I wanted the chance photo of Jesse Eisenberg to [[Multitracks|remix]] "[[On We March]]" be the cover as directly as it was in the film's poster. By blurring out the photo and "[[In Motion]]"placing the title text over Eisenberg's eyes, I was able to win a chance to meet Ross and Reznor in Los Angeles, along with create a seat at cover that evoked the film's premierebranding while distancing itself from it at the same time. The style of fonts used in the film and its marketing were something Trent and I both really liked, so we preserved that for the soundtrack.

==Tracklisting==For the internal art, Sony gave me a batch of publicity stills from the film to utilize if I wanted. By their nature none of them were particularly artistic, and I wasn't sure how useful they'The Social Network Soundtrack'' is available d be for download the artwork. Trent expressed an interest in creating a package that could stand on [http://wwwits own whether or not listeners had seen the film.amazonGiven that we conceded a bit on the album cover, he said "let's make the inside packaging weird.com/gp/product/B0044430H8?ie=UTF8&tag=thniinnawi-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0044430H8 Amazon MP3]#"[[Hand Covers Bruise]]" (4:18)#"In Motion" (4:56)#An early idea I had was to digitally corrupt the images we had from the film, combining a "[[A Familiar Taste]]glitch art" (3:35)#"[[It Catches Up With You]]" (1:39)#"[[Intriguing Possibilities]]" (4:24)#"[[Painted Sun In Abstract]]" (3:29)#"[[3:14 Every Night]]" (4:03)#"[[Pieces Form The Whole]]" (4:16)#"[[Carbon Prevails]]" (3:53)#"[[Eventually We Find Our Way]]" (4:17)#"[[Penetration]]" (1:14)#"[[In The Hall Of The Mountain King]]" (2:21)#"On We March" (4:14)#"[[Magnetic]]" (2:10)#"[[Almost Home]]" (3:33)#"[[Hand Covers Bruisevisual aesthetic I've always been interested in with a metaphor for digital images shared on Facebook, the corruption they're susceptible to, and the corruption portrayed in the film.

===Sampler tracklisting===#"Pieces Form The Whole" Whereas in previous projects (4:25especially With Teeth and Year Zero)I'd used careful manual processes to create digital glitches, this time I actually destroyed images by opening them up in a text editor and adding/removing text to their raw code.#"Eventually We Find Our Way" It was a very experimental, trial-and-error process - I tried different file types, different rendering methods (4:17for example, damaged Photoshop files render much more interestingly in OSX's Preview than in Photoshop itself)#"On We March" , and different types of text injected into the image files (4:17I grabbed random paragraphs of text from around the web - ridiculous fan-fiction sites were a fun source)#". The Gentle Hum Of Anxiety" (3results are what you see below - these images were distorted through manual editing of the image files in a text editor, not through intricate Photoshop work.
