Twin Peaks featured an up-and-coming band, "The Nine Inch Nails." I think you'll enjoy them.



Nine Inch Nails appeared on the most recent episode of Twin Peaks: The Return, with Trent Reznor and company performing Not the Actual Events' "She's Gone Away" onstage for the first time since that EP's arrival last December.

For the performance, "the Nine Inch Nails" – as they're announced on the episode – transform into a leather-clad goth band, with Reznor wearing sunglasses and gloves during the distortion-heavy rendition of "She's Gone Away."

Reznor previously collaborated with Lynch on the score and soundtrack for the director's 1997 film Lost Highway – the source of Nine Inch Nails' "The Perfect Drug" – while Lynch also helmed the band's 2013 video for "Came Back Haunted."

Most episodes of the Twin Peaks revival have featured scenes at the titular town's Bang Bang Bar where real-life artists perform at the roadhouse: The Chromatics, Au Revoir Simone, the Cactus Blossoms, Trouble and Sharon Van Etten are among those who have also played on the series.

I thought they were the most boring, overrated act I'd ever seen (NIN that is, not Jesus and Mary Chain who were, and remain, awesome).

When Trent Reznor threw a temper tantrum and walked off the stage after one song at Lollapalooza a few months later, it cemented my opinion of them.

"Head Like a Hole" is a decent song. Other than that, I have no use for them.

I know, it's a personal preference.....millions of fans can prove me wrong.

But then, Yanni sells millions of records, so what does that prove?
