How to Destroy Angels is Trent Reznor's post Nine Inch Nails project. For this, he surrounds himself with a close-knit guard consisting of Atticus Ross (producer, engineer), his partner Mariqueen Maandig (vocals), and graphic designer Rob Sheridan credited as a member of the band. How to Destroy Angels released the How to Destroy Angels (2010) and An Omen (2012) EPs, before getting down to business with 2013's Welcome Oblivion.
