Nine Inch Nails are back, and their collaborative music video for new single “Came Back Haunted” — directed by famed surrealist David Lynch — is here. It’s a match made in goth rock heaven (or hell, whichever you prefer).
Get ready for plenty of macabre images of demonic faces and distorted figures, as well as throbbing, up-close shots of Trent Reznor’s face. There’s a warning for those with epilepsy to look away, as the video’s been identified as a threat to trigger seizures.
