Things Falling Apart
Things Falling Apart is Nine Inch Nails' second remix album, released through Nothing Records and Interscope on 21 November 2000. It works as a companion to The Fragile, the band's third studio album, reworking material from that record rather than adding a new chapter of its own.
It includes a version of "10 Miles High", the only former B-side on the set, which differs from the one that appeared on the vinyl edition of The Fragile and as a B-side to "We're in This Together". The US promo single for "Into the Void" also carries the label "Halo 16". Reviews were harsh, with NME handing it a sarcastic 10/10, but it is a curious footnote for anyone following the band through the Fragile era.
