Nine Inch Nails – "The Perfect Drug" Versions

The Plug remix was always his shining moment. I think it's better than anything on any version of his album Drum N Bass For Papa. An amazing DnB remix with a really sentimental melody running alongside it. Plug really made the best parts of Trent Reznor come into full light.

I wish this was released on a proper 12" single. The cover would look awesome on vinyl! Or maybe even just adding this track to the Fragile would be have been cool. I think it would have fit the album better than starfuckers inc.

Just when one thought NIN couldn't get any more exotic with remixes, this release proved to be the cherry topper. None of the remixes show and any relation to each other and most of the lyrics are absent. The flow of the songs make it seem as if one is listening to a forty minute musical acid trip. I'm a big fan of this single, but it may not be for everyone. Foreign versions include the original track and the vinyl version includes an exclusive mix by Aphrodite. 4/5

one of nine inch nails' best singles. meat beat manifesto, plug, and spacetime continuum provide incredible remixes, and trent reznor even adds another interpretation of one of his most famous songs. 2 downfalls to this single though - 1) the orb mix. it just isn't very good at all. while the beat is good and you can get into it, it makes a lot of the song incredibly annoying, and 2) lack of the original track. if you can get a hold of the import version, i highly recommend that since it contains a 6th track - the original version

This is, and has been for quite some time, the number-one CD in my whole collection, the single was an awesome song to begin with, and when some of Reznor's Nothing Records label mate got their hands on it, it took on the form of pure break-beat perfection. I love, especially since I'm an amen breaks junky!!!
