I decided to take a vacation to see a couple of Nine Inch Nails shows as they are playing a few dates with A Place To Bury Strangers. I don’t expect my hearing to recover for quite sometime.

It’s not even September yet and the early part of the week is starting to fill up with major shows. Tonight it’s noisy, melodic, brooding, mechanical A Place to Bury Strangers making their Columbus debut.

The new version - scheduled for release on November 2, 2008 - will feature remastered versions of all the tracks from the U.S version. (released back in 2007) It will also see the addition of some - as yet unconfirmed - new material. The Rocket Girl record label will be doing the honours.

Part of Trent Reznor’s reinvention from industrial-pop starlet to the major-label bucking tastemaker has been his choice of opening acts for Nine Inch Nails tours. Nobody expected Reznor, who is more closely associated with Marilyn Manson than the Jesus Lizard, to become hip, but New York’s A Place to Bury Strangers aren’t doing much speculating. The trio will open for Nine Inch Nails on a string of dates later this month, and they are “psyched” about the opportunity.
