If you're only interested in TRON: Ares because Nine Inch Nails is doing the music, then you won't have to wait until October to hear the entire thing. The music has been a massive part of the marketing for this film from the moment it was confirmed that Nine Inch Nails were going to be involved. The first single is already getting radio play, and it was officially announced that the entire soundtrack is officially on sale. We got a full track list and some details about the music overall, calling it a "departure from their previous film scores. The album erupts with the band's full force, breaking boundaries and redefining what music in film can be with pulsating synths, distorted textures, and haunting melodies. The album doesn't feature a single second of orchestral music."
This is the first time that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have been specifically asked to compose under the Nine Inch Nails name, and is being called one of NIN's "most compelling albums as analog soul and digital dread collide. Humming with menace, melancholy, and momentum," The music video for 'As Alive As You Need Me To Be' is also out, and you can purchase the album here. If people are into this music, it could be the thing that pushes people who were on the fence about seeing TRON: Ares over that line.
