The band has also covered David Bowie’s “I’m Afraid Of Americans” and most recently Joy Division’s “Digital.” They recently released their critically acclaimed EP Bad Witch, with mxdwn giving it a “High Fidelity” and saying it “pushes boundaries with exceptional ease, taking advantage of the forward progress the genre has made in their brief absence and marrying it to the ambitious film soundtracks that Reznor has created over the years.” The band will then be going on an extensive tour this fall with alongside The Jesus and Mary Chain. The Cold and Black and Infinite Tour will kick off with a two-night stint in Phoenix, AZ September 13th, and 14th. It will hit major cities across the U.S. including Memphis, New York, and Boston before concluding with a whopping six shows in Los Angeles, CA. The band will also play some U.S. festivals in between including a headlining performance at the River City Rock Festival in San Antonio, TX and Mexico’s Corona Capital Music Festival with The Chemical Brothers and Lorde.
