Nine Inch Nails premiere new single ‘As Alive as You Need Me to Be’ + detail ‘Tron: Ares’ soundtrack

Nine Inch Nails have premiered a new song called “As Alive as You Need Me to Be,” the first preview of the band’s Tron: Ares soundtrack.

The track, which marks the first new original NIN music in five years, is out now via digital outlets and is accompanied by a lyric video.

You can also hear “As Alive as You Need Me to Be” in the new Tron: Ares trailer, which shows Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman Jared Leto as a program called Ares.

The Tron: Ares soundtrack will be released on Sept. 19 ahead of the Disney film’s release on Oct. 10. While Trent Reznor has often composed film scores alongside his NIN bandmate Atticus Ross, the Tron: Ares soundtrack is being released specifically as a Nine Inch Nails project.
