HBO has officially announced that their upcoming Watchmen television series will be scored by the musical duo of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, often known collectively as the popular industrial rock outfit Nine Inch Nails.

Hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, Nine Inch Nails got their start in the late 1980s before achieving massive success in the '90s with the release of their two highly-influential albums The Downward Spiral and The Fragile. The two have continued to put out records over the years and are largely considered to be the group that popularized industrial music.

Moreover, Reznor and Ross have already achieved significant success in the world of film scoring. The pair won the Academy Award for Best Original Score for their work on 2010's The Social Network. They have also previously scored films The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Gone Girl, as well as the PBS documentary series The Vietnam War. That being said, HBO's Watchmen will mark the duo's very first time scoring a scripted television series.
