DREADNOUGHT PREMIERE VIDEO SINGLE OF NINE INCH NAILS RENDITION “THE BECOMING” FROM FORTHCOMING TRIBUTE ALBUM THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL REDUX
MAGNETIC EYE RECORDS
There is true magic glittering in the second single taken from the forthcoming MER Redux Series release The Downward Spiral Redux. Avant-garde metal outfit DREADNOUGHT from Denver, Colorado present their astonishing and unique take on the NINE INCH NAILS classic “The Becoming” in the shape of a music video – and yes, there is a flute.
The highly anticipated new Redux Series installment is slated for release on November 28, 2025.
Parallel to The Downward Spiral Redux, Magnetic Eye Records will release their customary companion album entitled Best of Nine Inch Nails Redux that contains 13 cover renditions of deep cuts and all-time classics from across NINE INCH NAILS’ catalogue recorded by some of the heavy underground’s most exciting artists.
DREADNOUGHT comment: “What excited us most about our choice of “The Becoming” for this tribute was the challenge of covering an artist with a completely different sound from us yet one that we love and respect”, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Kelly Schilling reveals. “While we wanted to pay homage to the original song, we also wanted to fully make it our own. We had a lot of fun interpreting the melodies and nuances with different voicings and instrumentation, and we couldn’t resist adding a new flair of our own.”

About Dreadnought
DREADNOUGHT hail from Denver, Colorado. Since their genre-defying inception in 2012, the band has focused on creativity and exploration, pulling from all aspects of their musical backgrounds to craft something exciting and unique. Joining in the common ground of extreme metal, DREADNOUGHT explore a blend of prog, doom, folk, jazz, classical, black metal, and post rock. With riveting vocal performances, ferocious grooves, and soaring synthesizers, the Americans have earned a reputation as pioneers of sound. The melodic awe of their debut full-length Lifewoven (2013) and the sophomore album Bridging Realms (2015) turned darker and more complex with A Wake in Sacred Waves (2017) and Emergence (2019), to culminate with a beautifully fresh perspective in writing, production, and performance on their latest release The Endless (2022).
