The last piece of the puzzle. Though Bad Witch completes Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' recently promised trilogy of EP's, the album can easily stand alone as a new Nine Inch Nails full length. It comes following 2016's Not The Actual Events and 2017's Add Violence, and is NIN's most focused and cohesive effort to date. Regarding the creation of Bad Witch, Reznor admits "It wasn’t necessarily what we thought it was going to be when we started," but there is no denying the dense atmosphere and raw energy that permeates its grooves. 6 tracks total, clocking in at just over half an hour, pressed up on heavyweight 180 gram vinyl with printed insert.
