Nine Inch Nails frontman and Atticus Ross have already won the Academy Award as Best Original Soundtrack for their work in David Fincher’s “The Social Network” movie.
Not a surprise, for music addicted.
Trent Reznor, born in Mercer 1965, after forming in 1988 the post industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, mixing dark mood with post electro influence and obscure rock attitude, started his career in music releasing with his band successful albums like “Pretty Hate Machine”, “The Fragile”, “The Downward Spiral”, “With Teeth” and the latest “Year Zero” (2007).
He had featured the invitation by director David Fincher for the OST of his “The Social Network”, amazing movie about the creation of Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook, and, after arriving with composers/musicians heroes like Hans Zimmer (“Inception”),  A.R.Rahman (“127 Hours”), Alexandre Desplat (“The King’s Speech”) and John Powell (“How To Train Your Dragon”), and winning last Golden Globe Awards with Atticus Ross for their score, last Sunday, in Hollywood, he also won the Academy Award for the movie’s OST.

The soundtrack, and absolute and terrific mixture between classical covers from Grieg’s “Peer Gynt”, to intimate electro influences to the Radiohead’s cover of Creep, sang by a chorus of young children, has gifted the Oscar to our American music star, who, accepting the awards at the Kodak Theatre, said: “Wow. Is this really happening? When we finished, we were very proud of our work and happy to just be involved in this film, and to be standing up here in this company is humbling and flattering beyond words.

He also thanked David Fincher for the chance to work at his project, previewing that they’ll soon work for his cinema adaptation to Stieg Larsson’s best seller “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo”.
Not finished, yet, to surprise us!
