Nine Inch Nails – As Alive As You Need Me To Be (Official Lyric Video)
As Alive As You Need Me To BeNine Inch Nails

A monumental track crafted by the American heavyweights who redefined industrial rock, Nine Inch Nails! Released in July 2025, this song serves as the lead single for the soundtrack of the film TRON: Ares.

The industrial texture woven by distorted synth bass and mechanical beats is quintessentially their forte, and yet the melodious, vocoder-processed vocals carry a certain wistfulness that unmistakably hints at a respectful nod to Daft Punk, who composed for earlier entries in the series.

The lines searching for something to believe in sound exactly like the cry of a program awakening to self-awareness in a digital world.

Give it a listen on a night when you want to fully immerse yourself in a cyberpunk atmosphere.

Nine Inch Nails, known as the pioneers who pushed industrial rock into the mainstream, were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2020—truly a legendary band.

They’re the ones behind the soundtrack album for the film TRON: Ares, released in September 2025: Tron: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack).

This piece is one of the tracks included on that album.

Built entirely from electronic sounds, its chilly sonic landscape swells into an outburst of emotion in the latter half before abruptly fading away—a fleeting structure that brilliantly captures regret and nihilism.

It’s perfect not only for those who want to immerse themselves in NIN’s signature dark aesthetic, but also for listeners seeking a short, intensely impactful experience.

Be sure to check it out.

This track, a song by the American rock band Nine Inch Nails, features a stunning hands-and-feet combination that really explodes.

The intro is built entirely from a sixteenth-note phrase constructed with just the bass drum and snare combination.

Being able to play such a long hands-and-feet combo with pinpoint precision is seriously cool.

From a drummer’s perspective, it’s a very catchy intro that really sticks in your ears.

Also, be sure to check out the heavy groove in the chorus section!
