Nine Inch Nails – Bad Witch Album Review

Bad Witch (2018) is a Nine Inch Nails studio album, reviewed for its composition, sound design, performances, and place in the group’s evolving catalog.

Music and Production

This concise album completes the band’s late-2010s trilogy with abrasive electronics, free-jazz-influenced saxophone, and anxious atmospheres. It favors experimentation and disorientation over familiar radio-ready hooks.

Standout Tracks

Highlights include Shit Mirror, Ahead of Ourselves, Play the Goddamned Part, God Break Down the Door, I’m Not from This World, Over and Out.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Its short length and deliberately difficult textures can make the experience feel fragmented, but the willingness to take risks is invigorating.

The Final Verdict

A compact, confrontational record that pushes Nine Inch Nails toward unsettling new sounds.
