On September 19, 2025, TRON: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), full of new original music by Nine Inch Nals, will be released via Interscope Records. Composed for the third part of the groundbreaking TRON film franchise, TRON: Ares is one of the most impressive Nine Inch Nails albums ever – a menacingly vibrant work full of melancholy and dynamism, where analog soul and digital horror meet. It is also the pioneering band’s first film score – although Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have already composed 20 scores under their own name, winning two Oscars, three Golden Globes, a GRAMMY® and an Emmy Award.
Nine Inch Nails have already released the first single from the album today: “As Alive As You Need Me To Be”. The band hadn’t released any new music for five years.
