'''''Year Zero''''' (rumored to be '''''[[Halo numbers|Halo 24]]''''', but not yet confirmed) is an upcoming [[Nine Inch Nails]] studio album, due for release on April 17, 2007. It was produced by NIN frontman [[Trent Reznor]] in collaboration with Alan Moulder and engineer Atticus Ross, both of whom worked in a similar capacity on NIN's previous major studio release, '''With Teeth'''. Mastering was done by Brian "Big Bass" Gardner.
In a 2005 interview with '''Kerrang!''', Reznor expressed his intentions to write material for a new release during the '''With Teeth''' tour, and it was confirmed that he was working on it by September 2006. Year Zero began its mixing stage in January of 2007, and TR stated on his Spiral blog that the album was finished as of February 5, 2007.
