About Nine Inch Nails
Nine Inch Nails was founded in 1988 in Cleveland, Ohio by Trent Reznor as an industrial rock project. Through the 1990s, releases on TVT and Nothing/Interscope – including “Pretty Hate Machine” (1989), “Broken” (1992), and “The Downward Spiral” (1994) – established the project’s profile, followed by “The Fragile” (1999).
From 2008, the band issued music independently via The Null Corporation before later releases on major and independent partners. The current core members are Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross; the live lineup in 2025–2026 features Robin Finck, Alessandro Cortini and drummer Josh Freese.
About Boys Noize
Boys Noize is the recording and DJ moniker of Berlin-based producer Alexander (Alex) Ridha, born in Hamburg on 22 August 1982. After early releases and club work under aliases including Kid Alex, Ridha launched the project in 2004 and founded his own imprint Boysnoize Records in 2005 to self-release and control his output. Early records also appeared via International Deejay Gigolo, Kitsuné and Turbo Recordings.
Ridha’s debut album, “Oi Oi Oi”, arrived in 2007, followed by “Power” (2009) and “Out of the Black” (2012). Subsequent studio sets include “Mayday” (2016) and “+/- (Polarity)” (2021), the latter issued through his own label.
Beyond his core albums, Ridha has run sub-labels (including BNR TRAX) and collaborated widely: Dog Blood with Skrillex and Handbraekes with Mr. Oizo, plus joint singles and production work with artists such as Depeche Mode, Frank Ocean and A$AP Rocky. In 2024 he mixed the Reznor/Ross film compilation “Challengers [Mixed] by Boys Noize.”
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
