Nine Inch Nails - March Of The Pigs

"March of the Pigs" (also known as Halo 7) a single by Nine Inch Nails for the song of the same name released in 1994. It was released as a teaser single prior to the album The Downward Spiral.

"March of the Pigs" has one of the most unique metres of any song to enjoy popular radio play, alternating three bars of 7/8 time with one bar of 4/4 time (in effect, a 29/8 time signature). The song has a BPM rate of 269.

A music video was made for this song, directed by Peter Christopherson and released in March 1994. The video features the band performing the song live in front of a white wall backdrop. This video was the last video to be played on MTV2's Increase the Beat, on Memorial Day weekend 2002. At 269 BPM, it had the fastest tempo of the 400+ videos that were played that weekend.
