History[edit] Formation (1988–1989)[edit] The Nine Inch Nails "NIИ" logo designed by Reznor and Gary Talpas Reznor coined the name "Nine Inch Nails" because it "abbreviated easily", rather than for "any literal meaning".[18] Other rumored explanations have circulated, alleging that Reznor chose to reference Jesus' crucifixion with nine-inch spikes,[19] or Freddy Krueger's nine-inch fingernails.[20] The English letters NIN are also noted for their resemblance to the modern Hebrew characters of the Tetragrammaton.[21] There is also an old English music hall song with the refrain, "I don't not know no one who don't want no nine inch nails.
Pretty Hate Machine (1989–1991)[edit] In 1989, while doing promotion for the album, the band were asked what shows they would like to appear on. The band jokingly replied (possibly while intoxicated) that they would like to appear on Dance Party USA, as it was the most absurd option they could think of at the time.
