The Peel it Back Tour is an upcoming concert tour by the American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, consisting of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. It is set to begin in 2025 with dates in the United States, Canada, and Europe, being the bands first tour since their US and UK shows in 2022.

After Reznor and Ross had focused on composing film scores, they made plans to put their creative inspiration into new Nine Inch Nails work. A Nine Inch Nails world tour was expected since December 2024 and leaks began in mid-January 2025 until the band confirmed their tour, but delayed announcement due to the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires.

Background

In April 2024, Nine Inch Nails announced a slew of upcoming projects through new multimedia company With Teeth, including a music festival, a new album, short film, and video game. In August, they announced that the band would compose the score to Disney's Tron: Ares (2025), the first of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross's film scores to credit the Nine Inch Nails name after over a dozen prior works.^[1]^[2]^[3] After having been focused more on film scores,^[4] Reznor indicated in December 2024 that he and Ross were "taking the inspiration we've garnered and funneling it into a Nine Inch Nails project", and that the duo was ready to return to the "driver's seat".^[5] Reznor elaborated that material released by "Nine Inch Nails" had been their work in relation to the zeitgeist, which he felt less connected to as he aged, but said that this purpose was changing, and that beyond the Tron score he mused that other Nine Inch Nails activity in 2025 was not out of the question.^[6]

Plans for a tour titled "Peel it Back" leaked on January 13, 2025, the title alluding to the band's song "March of the Pigs" from The Downward Spiral (1994).^[4] These leaks indicated August and September shows in the United States, Canada, and Europe; a September 10 date at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida suggested that tickets were going on sale starting January 17.^[7] The leaks included an associated Ticketmaster listing for the Tampa date, with numerous concert locations in America emerging online, as well as in Toronto, Canada and Manchester, England.^[1] On the 14th, the band confirmed they were touring, with further details to follow, but their announcement was paused due to the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires.^[4]^[8] The Peel it Back Tour would mark the band's first tour since the completion of their 2022 US and UK shows.^[4]
