Trent Reznor Golden Globe Nod

Songwriter gains nomination

Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have been nominated for a Golden Globe for their work on ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’.

And so, the Trent Reznor juggernaut continues to roll on. The new-found Renaissance man won critical acclaim for his work on ‘The Social Network’, winning a Golden Globe and then an Oscar in the process.

Teaming up once again with Atticus Ross, the pair completed the soundtrack for the new adaptation of ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’.

Once again receiving critical acclaim, the soundtrack has repeated the success of ‘The Social Network’ and won a Golden Globe nomination.

Named on the list for ‘Best Original Score’ in the Motion Picture category at the Golden Globe Awards 2012, ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’ is set to do battle with some of the year’s biggest releases.

“We’re incredibly flattered to receive a Golden Globe nomination for our work on The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” Reznor said in a statement. “We spent the last year immersed in this project contributing to David Fincher’s vision and in awe of the talented group of people he assembled to make this film. Atticus and I would like to thank the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press for this gracious acknowledgement of our work.”

The acclaim is rolling in thick and fast for Trent Reznor. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter (via Consequence of Sound) recently, all round nice bloke Dave Grohl paused to show his respect for the Nine Inch Nails legend.

“I think it’s safe to say that he is my generation’s most talented musician-producer-songwriter. When he won the Academy Award, I was not only happy for him, but I was also happy that someone from my musical generation was being recognized not just as a rock musician, but as a brilliant composer. As an artist. It was well-deserved.”
