Nine Inch Nails London 2022: how to get tickets for NIN and Yves Tumor at O2 Academy Brixton and UK tour dates

Three new UK headline shows have been announced for Nine Inch Nails as part of their UK tour 2022.

The band will now play dates in Glasgow, London and Manchester - either side of their shows at Cornwall’s Eden Project.

Nine Inch Nails are set to arrive in London on June 21 - the last UK date before the rock band ends their tour in Clisson, France.

Announced to support NIN, experimental performer Yves Tumor will feature in all three UK shows.

Who are Nine Inch Nails?

Not only are they an American alternative rock band, but Nine Inch Nails are known for their dark and tortured industrial tracks.

Essentially beginning as a stage name for its multi-instrumentalist Trent Reznor, NIN quickly gained popularity with its debut release Pretty Hate Machine in 1989.

Reznor would be the ever-present band member as Nine Inch Nails often circulated musicians - until Englishman Atticus Ross joined the band on a permanent basis in 2016.

With over 20 million records sold since then, the rockers have also gone on to be nominated for a Grammy on 13 different occasions.

Providing an Academy Award-winning score for the critically acclaimed movie The Social Network (2010), as well as other films such as The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011) and Gone Girl (2015).

Which songs are they expected to perform?

This tour is an important one for the band after cancelling live show plans in 2021 due to uncertainty caused by Covid-19.

Since their last live show, Nine Inch Nails have released two albums - ‘Ghosts V: Together’ and ‘Ghosts VI: Locusts’ - so expect to hear some tracks from those.

There is also reason to expect some of their classic and more critically-acclaimed songs to be heard, such as ‘Closer’, ‘Hurt’, ‘Something I Can Never Have’, ‘Wish’ and much more.

Tracks from Nine Inch Nails are traditionally longer than normal, with some tunes ranging from as short as two minutes to as long as 10 minutes.
