Music
Nine Inch Nails
In 1994, Trent Reznor brought Lohner into Nine Inch Nails to play guitar, bass, and keyboards for the band live. Lohner stayed on with the band throughout the touring cycle to The Downward Spiral , both the recording and touring behind The Fragile , the live album/DVD And All That Could Have Been , and the recording of the And_All_That_Could_Have_Been#Still|Still EP. Lohner left Nine Inch Nails on good terms to focus on production work as Trent Reznor began working on the Nine Inch Nails album With Teeth . Lohner was featured on many NIN remixes during this time, and was featured on the Nine Inch Nails recordings of "Big Man With A Gun", "Somewhat Damaged", "Even Deeper", "The Great Below", various songs from And_All_That_Could_Have_Been#Still|Still as well as playing various instruments on every song on And All That Could Have Been . He was a guest performer with the NIN live band during their Wave Goodbye Tour in 2009.
Marilyn Manson
He was featured on Marilyn Manson (band)|Marilyn Manson 's breakthrough album Antichrist Superstar , as was most of Nine Inch Nails because of Trent Reznor 's relationship with Manson, acting as his mentor in the world of music. Lohner can be heard playing the acoustic guitar on '"The Reflecting God" and lead guitar on "Angel With the Scabbed Wings."
Eminem
Lohner worked together with Eminem and Marilyn Manson on the Song " The Way I Am (Eminem song)|The Way I Am (Danny Lohner Remix) ".
Puscifer
He is currently a studio member of Puscifer , helping with engineering and filling in for instruments and vocals as necessary.
Metallica
After longtime bassist Jason Newsted left Metallica and the subsequent recording of the St. Anger album, Lohner was one of a select few musicians whom the band invited to audition for the empty bassist slot (Producer Bob Rock had recorded the bass parts for the album). Although he did not join the band, he can be seen briefly in the documentary of the making of the album and general turmoil in the band during that period, Some Kind of Monster (film)|Some Kind of Monster .
Lohner can frequently be found contributing to movie scores with fellow Nothing Records alumni Charlie Clouser and Clint Mansell . Additionally, he does remixes for various artists under the pseudonym Renholdėr (an in-joke anagram of Re: D. Lohner). This began as a result of the song of the same title, which appeared on A PerfectCircle 's debut album Mer de Noms . Contrary to popular belief, Lohner did not work on this song but was later told by guitarist Billy Howerdel that the song was about him. He has appeared in all of A Perfect Circle's albums to date in one form or another and has also appeared on stage with the band.
In early 2003, A Perfect Circle's official Web site announced that Renholder would be replacing Troy Van Leeuwen as the band's second guitarist. While Lohner did receive production credit on the band's second release, Thirteenth Step , he had other obligations by the time touring began, and ex- Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha stepped in to fill the void. The most notable reason for Lohner's departure was his obligation to produce the soundtrack of the movie Underworld (2003 film)|Underworld . This soundtrack was a collection mostly consisting of tracks written, produced, remixed, and performed by Lohner and his friends in the industry, including David Bowie , TRUSTcompany , Maynard James Keenan , Johnette Napolitano , and others. Lohner worked with Richard Patrick of Filter (band)|Filter , Wes Borland of Limp Bizkit , Black Light Burns , and Josh Freese of A PerfectCircle and Nine Inch Nails, in a project called The Damning Well . A total of 14 songs were recorded, but only one of these made the soundtrack. So far, there have been no plans to release the rest of the songs.
In November 2004, Lohner contributed heavily to Emotive (album)|eMOTIVe , the third full length album by A Perfect Circle. This album was mostly a collection of cover songs, but it also included " Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums ," a continuation of "Pet" from the band's second album, Thirteenth Step . In addition, there was an original work, titled " Passive (song)|Passive ," which was the final version of a song originally composed for the Tapeworm Project. This track subsequently appeared on the soundtrack of the film Constantine (film)|Constantine , and Lohner appeared in the video for this track. A sister to eMOTIVe , 2004 also saw the release of aMOTION , a 2-disc collection that included a CD of the band's remixes and a DVD of music videos and live material. The remix album included Lohner's remixes of " 3 Libras (song)|3 Libras ," " Judith (song)|Judith ," " Weak and Powerless ," and " The Outsider (A PerfectCircle song)|The Outsider ." Although these remixes had previously been available on various soundtracks and CD singles, 3 Libras was reworked slightly from its original release, and "Judith" now featured censored lyrics. On both eMOTIVe and aMOTION , Lohner was credited as a band member.

Black Light Burns

The project was somewhat of a successor of the Damning Well, as it involved most of its members, as well as certain portions of still unreleased material from the Damning Well. Other members included Josh Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv and Josh Freese . The album was released on June 5, 2007, to be followed by a tour that Lohner was not able to participate in because of his current activities, despite Borland's effort to get Lohner to join the touring lineup.
