NIN mastermind Trent credited as music consultant for Arkham Knight game, out in June

Nine Inch Nails mastermind Trent Reznor is behind the music for upcoming video game Batman: Arkham Knight.

He’s listed as music consultant on the title, set to be launched on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on June 23.

Producers have released a trailer for the game last week featuring NIN track The Wretched, and tweeted: “Please join us in thanking Trent Reznor for his vision.”

It’s been suggested by fans that he was instrumental in getting directors Tim and Jeff Cronenweth to work on the project, after collaborating with them on Gone Girl and Girl With The Dragon Tattoo – the latter winning Reznor a Grammy.

He previously provided NIN music for the soundtrack to Darkness II and wrote the theme for Call Of Duty: Black Ops II.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
