Nine Inch Nails "Ghosts V & VI" (2020) ****

Ghosts V: Together and Ghosts VI: Locusts (both 2020) find Nine Inch Nails leaning heavily into the Brian Eno influence and I'm here for it. Both albums sound more like Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' film score work so it puzzles me why these are considered "NIN" albums. Neither sounds anything like the previous Ghosts I-IV (2008) release either, which is cool, but again, I'm unsure why these pieces were given that moniker. In any event, these two albums were a nice surprise drop and are great ambient soundtracks that compliment various types of activities.
