→Year Zero and Beyond
''Year Zero'' was released on April 17, 2007, and debuted at the Number 2 position on the ''Billboard'' charts. Much of 2007 was spent touring outside of North America in support of the album, with only one US date. When the tour ended, Reznor returned to Los Angeles to finish working with hip-hop artist/author/actor [[Saul Williams]] on ''[[The Inevitable Rise And Liberation Of NiggyTardust!]].'' On October 8, 2007, Reznor announced that he was no longer under contract with Interscope, allowing him to be able to distribute any future Nine Inch Nails and solo work in whatever form he desired. He also expressed his belief that being free from contract would enable him to have more direct contact with his fanbase and get his material to them in a more efficient and cost-effective manner. Interscope can still release a greatest-hits collection and has expressed interest in both that and a music-video retrospective. Reznor has expressed interest in helping with both of these proposed releases.
Today, Reznor is happier than he's ever been. He feels that he has found his calling in life and has found joy in creating music. Although he admits he could very easily relapse into his old ways, because he has been there, he has said he never wants to go back. He currently resides in Los Angeles with his dog, where he is working on the follow-up to ''Year Zero,'' rumored to be released sometime in 2008.
