Nine Inch Nails - Only

Not my favorite NiN song, but it has the advantage of having a cool music vid.

Wikipedia: "Only" (also known as Halo 20) is a single by Nine Inch Nails released on July 25, 2005. "Only" is the twentieth official Nine Inch Nails release and is the second single for the album With Teeth. It peaked at number one on the Billboard Modern Rock chart, where it stayed for seven weeks. Its the second sucessful release the Nine Inch Nails have had in the UK.

Nine Inch Nails (abbreviated as NIN) is an American industrial rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio circa 1988 by Trent Reznor. As its main producer, singer, songwriter, and instrumentalist, Reznor is the only official member of Nine Inch Nails and remains solely responsible for the musical direction of the band. His lyrics are largely concerned with dark explorations of the self, and the time between major studio albums (bridged by releases of remixes and live albums) has been extended by Reznor's battles with personal issues. After recording a new album, Reznor usually assembles a live band to tour with him extensively; this live component is generally considered a separate entity from Nine Inch Nails in the recording studio. On stage, NIN performs amongst visually spectacular elements and live performances often culminate with the destruction of musical instruments.[1]

NIN's music straddles a wide range of genres and techniques while retaining a characteristically intense sound. Underground music audiences warmly received the band's early activity, and Nine Inch Nails went on to produce several highly influential releases in the 1990s to international acclaim, including two Grammy Awards. Media coverage of NIN reached a peak in 1997, when Time magazine named Trent Reznor one of the 25 most influential people in America.[2] The RIAA estimates that Nine Inch Nails has sold at least 10.5 million units of all of its albums in the United States alone.[3] In 2004, Rolling Stone included Nine Inch Nails on their list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.[4]
