Nine Inch Nails have confirmed plans for an extremely intimate gig later this month, as they perform at The Scala, Kings Cross on 20 August, 2013.

The band will perform at the North London venue ahead of the release of their new album, Hesitation Marks, which is release 2 September 2013 - and is confirmed to include new tracks 'Copy Of A', 'Find My Way' and 'Came Back Haunted', the first single to be taken from the album.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, 9 August, and will be only be available through the band's official website, www.nin.com. To buy tickets, fans must be members of the website.

The band performed a number of new tracks as Fuji Rocks in Japan in July 2013. Listen to 'Copy Of A' and 'Disappointed' below.

'Copy Of A' is an epic and sprawling typically NIN number that features a gradual trancey build-up with a dark intensity before an almighty rock crescendo, while 'Disappointed' is a more brooding and tortured lament that features mid-Eastern insrumentation and the lyrics: "You'd think by now you'd figure out, that nothing's going to change."

Either way, both songs feature all of Reznor's brilliant, pumelling industrial metal hallmarks.

Earlier this week, the band aired another new track 'Find My Way' live at Fuji Rocks Festival. Hear it here

Reznor announced last year that he had been writing material throughout 2012, and later confirmed that it was for a new Nine Inch Nails album. The upcoming LP 'Hesitation Marks' is set for release on 3 September, 2013.

Nine Inch Nails will be playing at Reading Festival in the UK on Sunday 25th August. For details visit Gigwise Gig Tickets.
