Nine Inch Nails and Boys Noize have announced a new collaborative project titled Nine Inch Noize. Their debut record, ‘Halo 38,’ is scheduled for release on April 17th, 2026, marking the 38th official entry in the Nine Inch Nails ‘Halo’ catalog.
The duo will make their live debut as Nine Inch Noize this weekend at Coachella in Indio, California. The collaboration follows several years of creative partnership between Trent Reznor’s industrial outfit and the German producer, Alexander Ridha.
‘Halo 38’ represents a fusion of Ridha’s techno production with the heavy industrial structures characteristic of Nine Inch Nails. While specific tracklists remain unconfirmed, the project was recently teased via social media and physical billboards in the Coachella Valley.
Ridha previously contributed to the TRON: Ares soundtrack and the subsequent ‘Divergence’ remix album. This new record follows an extensive joint tour that ran through 2025 and concluded in March 2026.
The new record arrives on April 17th. For more info, click here.
