Trent Reznor Producing New Janes Addiction?

Over the past few days, Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor has been posting clues on his blog alluding to a new project. The photos, posted under the title "a look at something else that's going on," have obsessive fans frantically attempting to unravel the puzzle. (Some superfan went as far as to look at the iPhone coordinates pictured on one image and pinpoint the location of a studio.)

The first picture was a photo of Reznor, producer Alan Moulder and NIN veteran-programmer Atticus Ross, leaning over a mixing console. Next came a picture of Jane's Addiction bassist Eric Avery working on a lap top, then Jane's Addiction drummer Stephen Perkins, and today we're treated to a picture of Reznor in the studio with Dave Navarro, guitarist for Jane's Addiciton. Conspiculously absent, thus far, is a shot of Reznor with Perry Farrell.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Reznor is working with the band, but in what capacity? Some claim he's producing their new album, others claim Reznor will be the new frontman for Jane's.

What the fuck do you think is going on???

UPDATE: Trent has just posted a fifth clue on the NIN website! The picture shows two shadowed figures chilling in a studio. Reznor is clearly the guy sitting on the couch to the right, and we're going to go ahead and guess that the dude on the stool is none other than Perry Farrell. Sweet!!!

My hunch is that Trent is simply producing the new Jane's Addiction record, not writing or singing. I am predicting that their new album (with Perry Farrell, of course) could very well be released by year's end, as long as they don't implode like they usually do.
