Nine Inch Nails Reissuing 'Pretty Hate Machine'

'Pretty Hate Machine,' the debut full-length from Trent Reznor's Nine Inch Nails and a landmark recording that merged industrial and pop music, will finally receive the reissue treatment it has deserved for years. After plenty of label politics and ownership issues, Reznor located the original mixes, got in the studio with engineer Tom Baker and came out with a new, remastered version that's sure to please audiophiles. The new 'Pretty Hate Machine' will hit stores and digital retailers on Nov. 22 via UMe and Bicycle Music Group.

"It's been an interesting trip watching the fate of this record float from one set of hands to another (a long and depressing story) but it's finally wound up in friendly territory, allowing us to polish it up a bit and present it to you now," Reznor wrote on the Nine Inch Nails website. "We had fun revisiting this old friend, hope you enjoy."

The reissued 'Pretty Hate Machine' features a new cover by Rob Sheridan that reinterprets the original work by Gary Talpas. Originally on TVT Records, a label that folded, the new version will feature prominent B-side 'Sin' as well as a cover of Queen's 'Get Down, Make Love.' The album's most well-known track remains the punk nightmare 'Head Like a Hole.'
