The poster for this limited edition 10" is awesome. It's huge and looks good in a frame. The remixes are pretty much what you would expect from NIN around this time and are nothing that Nails fans haven't heard at least 20 times by now. Pretty good stuff. The poster is the real highlight here though.

Opal mix is rather unusual version, also known as the "Hip-Hop mix", although its more of a sped up breakbeat, and the chorus sounds refreshingly different. Distortion eventually consumes the end of the track and Trent's vocal of "you know, you know who you are" becomes the only "instrument" remaining. Well worth getting if you've yet to hear it as its noticeably different from the other 4 or 5 domestic vesions found on the other Head Like a Hole 10 track single.

This release was put out by TVT records and not necessarily Trent. It is said that these are not really remixes, but studio outtakes. You will hear an annoying repetition throughout this single were the mixes sound too similar to each other. For example, the slate mix is an edited down version of the copper version. The sympathetic remix of Terrible Lie is an edited version of the empathetic mix, and so forth. This release also includes the Down In It remixes and the original demo version that Trent used as his demo submissions. The UK version is a far more interesting release, as it has the basic remixes and the "Opal" version, which is a newly recorded version of the song. This Halo is worth having, but you will find that half of it is skipable. 3/5
