When was the last Nine Inch Nails concert in Arizona?

Arizona fans have been waiting seven years to experience the heavy, angsty sounds of “Head Like a Hole,” “Closer” and other NIN songs in person. Reznor’s group last played in the state during a two-night run at what is now Arizona Financial Theatre in downtown Phoenix back in September 2018.

Nine Inch Nails hasn’t released new music since 2020, but the band defined its genre with a trio of landmark albums — 1989’s “Pretty Hate Machine,” 1994’s “The Downward Spiral” and 1999’s “The Fragile” — and cutting-edge videos that brought industrial music to the masses.

NIN, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020 and has earned 10 Grammy Award nominations, with two wins.

Reznor also has racked up multiple honors for his soundtracks, including Oscars for his work on “The Social Network” and Pixar’s “Soul” and an Emmy for HBO’s “Watchmen.”
