Nine-Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor shared that the music they created for the new thriller "Gone Girl" was inspired by the bad music played in massage parlors.

He laughed off rumors that massage parlors meant "whorehouses", and explained that director David Fincher visited the chiropractor and the unnerving music seemed to be a good fit for the scoring of the film.

"So here's what happened. David was at the chiropractor and heard this music that was inauthentically trying to make him feel OK, and that became a perfect metaphor for this film. The challenge was simply, what is the musical equivalent of the same sort of façade of comfort and a feeling of insincerity that that music represented?" Reznor explained.

It certainly makes a lot of sense when Reznor explains it, since the movie revolves mainly around the facade of a loving relationship and a feeling of doubt and uncertainty about whether or not a man had indeed killed his wife.

Kristen Romanelli, managing editor of Film Score Monthly Online, stated that Reznor's work may be polarizing for some in the film scoring community, but that the unease instigated by the music makes for a compelling parallelism of discomfort felt regarding the story.

Reznor admitted that even he felt uneasy about the story. He shared that he had a lot of fun working on the project because it was challenging and kept them on their toes. However, the story was even darker than he was expecting and that although the book wasn't exactly happy, he described the film as "nasty" - in a good way.

The musician-composer shared that when Fincher offered him the project, he knew that he wasn't going to allow anyone else do the project even though he was in the middle of a year-long Nine-Inch Nails worldwide tour.

Reznor, along with his longtime collaborator Atticus Ross, crafted the scoring in between several two-week breaks, taking into consideration what Fincher envisioned in his head as well as what was going on in the script.

Reznor and Ross won the Academy Award for original score for "The Social Network".
