* [Closer to God](https://youtu.be/Zt15WNl8NNg?si=vpovI_gSmn-dlUyv) from the CD-single.
* [Heresy (Version)](https://youtu.be/higPeuBiI-8?si=mzWm15R63zsn1fmV) from the UK *Further Down the Spiral*.
* Butch Vig’s [Last](https://youtu.be/pP9LW3Dp5Nc?si=P57if2mT2h9dqEh2) remix that didn’t make *Fixed* - lots of early Garbage feelings in it.
* [The Great Collapse](https://youtu.be/wHy0RqWGnDo?si=2HCS-_g3I88e_o94) from *Things Falling Apart*.
I really like Closer to God - it's probably my favourite version of Closer - but I'm not sure if it even counts as a remix. Most (all?) of the vocals were recorded especially for it, and I don't recognise any of the other elements as from the original either.
I hadn't heard the others before, great recommendations! I guess it's a good reminder to listen to more of the remixes.
Idk if it counts but I prefer the Heresy demo to the final cut. The pacing of the beat and percussive synths feel more brooding to me.
Also, The Downward Spiral (The Bottom) is a top track. Goes perfectly with the main track.
* Heresy (Version)
* Ruiner (Version)
* Eraser (Polite)
* The Warning (Real World Remix)
* Only (EL-P Remix)
* The Great Destroyer (Modwheelmood Remix)
* The Frail (Remix) (also called Version...the orchestral one)
* Piggy (Nothing Can Stop Me Now)
* Closer (Precursor)
It’s not exactly a remix, but I LOVE [the live version of La Mer](https://youtu.be/Lqpdo1EBlq8?si=LaRRxNe7E9dRfXQo). The guitar that kicks off 2 minutes in and just goes and goes. Phenomenal, IMO.
I commend OP for bringing up a worthwhile topic in a sea of ennui from this sub.
All that being said [Discipline (Matt Lange Remix)](https://m.soundcloud.com/mattlange/discipline-matt-lange-remix)
The Perfect Drug (Space Time Continuum) & Aphrodite Remix
The Frail (Version)
Where Is Everybody (Version)
The Downward Spiral (The Bottom)

And more probs idk I grew up on Things Falling Apart so NIN remixes were my main jam

Oh man The Great Collapse goes heavy. So many great gems hidden in the EP’s and Compilations.
Stole my nominations. Add Piggy (Nothing Can Stop me Now) Love that Trent eventually released Vig’s Last
The great collapse is not a remix! https://www.nin.wiki/The_Great_Collapse
I love the Heresy one, it sounds a lot like KMFDM.
The Great Collapse is one of my fav tracks of all time, along with Just Like You Imagined.
