}}'''"Gave Up"''' is the sixth track on the 1992 ''[[Broken]]'' EP. It continues the EP's musical themes of being loud and aggressive, as well as showing themes of nihilism, self-loathing, and chaos in the lyrics.<br />

==Versions==<br />
===Gave Up===<br />
This is the original album version.<br />
<br />
===Gave Up (remixed by Coil, Danny Hyde)===<br />
This remix, done by [[Coil]] and [[Danny Hyde]], appears on ''Fixed.''<br />
<br />
===Gave Up (''Closure'')===<br />
A re-recorded version of the song appears as the soundtrack to the song's music video. A different vocal recording and repetition of the chorus riff by the guitars to end the song are perhaps its most notable features.<br />
<br />
===Gave Up (Live)===<br />
An otherwise unavailable live recording of this song from the Civic Arena, Omaha, NE (2/13/95) appears on the Alternative Press compilation ''Industrial Strength Machine Music: The Framework of Industrial Rock 1978-1995'', released in 1999.[http://www.9inchnails.com/discography/compilations/industrial-strength-machine-music.php]<br />
<br />
===Gave Up (''And All That Could Have Been'')===<br />
This version retains the guitar ending found in the music video version.<br />
<br />
===Gave Up (''Beside You In Time'')===<br />
Just like the ''And All That Could Have Been'' version, the ''Beside You In Time'' is performed very closely to the album version. The only difference is the keyboard solo by [[Alessandro Cortini]], which sounds different than [[Charlie Clouser]]'s in the previous DVD (which was nearly identical to the album version).<br />
<br />
==Music Videos==<br />
[[Image:Gaveup2.jpg|thumbnail|Screen shot of Gave Up music video directed by Jon Reiss]]<br />
<br />
There are two videos for "Gave Up": a performance video directed by [[Jon Reiss]] ("[[Happiness In Slavery (song)|Happiness In Slavery]]"), and the finale to the ''[[Broken Movie]],'' directed by [[Peter Christopherson]].<br />
<br />
The video directed by Reiss, as stated earlier, is a performance video. It features the band (Reznor, [[Richard Patrick]], [[Chris Vrenna]], and [[James Woolley]]) along with [[Marilyn Manson (musician)|Marilyn Manson]] performing the song in a studio at the notorious [[Tate Mansion]]. Noticeable in the video is a message on a computer monitor that reads "FUCK YOU STEVE." Many consider this to be another jab at [[TVT Records]] owner [[Steve Gottlieb]], with whom Reznor was feuding at the time over his contract and creative control. This video clip can be found in ''[[Closure]]''.<br />
This version of the song played in the video has a different ending than the album version. It replaces the somewhat chaotic album ending with a guitar outro.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Gaveup.JPG|thumbnail|Screen shot from "Broken Movie" version of Gave Up video]]<br />
<br />
The video directed by Christopherson is the finale to the ''Broken Movie.'' The victim is strung up to the ceiling and burned and beaten. He is then taken down and tied to a board, where the killer takes a chainsaw to the victim's appendages. The killer unmasks himself, revealing his identity in the victim's final moments. After having his way with the dying victim, the killer cuts out the victim's heart and eats it. All the while, Reznor can be seen on the television singing the song. Intercut with the violence is footage of various body parts in freezers and the fridge, a police officer (played by either Richard or Robert Patrick) coming into the crime scene, and a crowd of rubbernecking bystanders.<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
"Gave Up" has seen regular playing time in live shows since it's debut in 1994. When performed live, the high pitched "smashed-up" chorus is pre-recorded with the band members lightly whispering over it.<br />
<br />
== Lyrics ==<br />
Perfect little dream the kind that hurts the most<br />
Forgot how it feels well almost<br />
No one to blame always the same<br />
Open my eyes wake up in flames<br />
<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me realize<br />
It took you to make me see the light<br />
Smashed up my sanity<br />
Smashed up integrity<br />
Smashed up what I believed in<br />
Smashed up what's left of me<br />
Smashed up my everything<br />
Smashed up all that was true<br />
Gonna smash myself to pieces<br />
I don't know what else to do<br />
<br />
Covered in hope and Vaseline<br />
Still cannot fix this broken machine<br />
Watching the hole it used to be mine<br />
Just watching it burn in my steady systematic decline<br />
Of the trust I will betray<br />
Give it to me I throw it away<br />
After everything I've done I hate myself for what I've become<br />
<br />
I tried<br />
I gave up<br />
I don't know<br />
Throw it away<br />

'''Quake''' is a video game by id Software released on June 22, 1996, which features music composed by [[Trent Reznor]]. The PC version of the game included 10 audio tracks from the game as standard CD-Audio files, so the game disc could be played in a CD player with the first track reserved for game data (which can not be read by a CD player), and 10 additional tracks of music.<br />
<br />
There are in fact no official names to these tracks. They are usually referred to either by the level they are initially played to, or by one of two fan created track listings. They can also be referred to by their track number, however, the first audio track being placed on the CD's second track (the first being reserved for the actual game data), this usually leads to confusion.<br />
<br />
It is notable that this soundtrack contains a rare occurance of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_music Ambient music]] composed by Trent Reznor, who is known mostly for Industrial Rock.<br />
<br />
A particular weapon in gameplay is the "nailgun" which can be reloaded by collecting ammo boxes with the NIN logo on them.<br />

}}'''"Pinion"''' is a very simplistic track that begins the ''[[Broken]]'' EP. This track is notable for being the shortest in length of all of Nine Inch Nails' catalog, along with "[[A Violet Fluid]]" being a mere two seconds longer. The song in the music video is a few seconds longer. It features a pulsing series of chords which eventually picks up and leads into "[[Wish (song)|Wish]]."<br />
<br />
A pinion is a gear with a small number of teeth, often engaging a larger gear. It's also a bird's wing or flight feathers. To pinion someone is to bind their hands and feet in such a manner that they cannot be used. An example of this last definition can be seen in the music video to the song.<br />

<br />
==Versions==<br />
===Pinion===<br />
This is the only version presently available.<br />
<br />
==Music Video==<br />
The video for "Pinion," released in 1992, was directed by Eric Goode and Serge Becker, who also directed "[[Help Me I Am In Hell]]."<br />
<br />
The video was filmed entirely in black-and-white and starts in a restroom. The camera focuses on a toilet containing a dark substance, typically assumed to be blood. The water and the substance are flushed down as the camera follows. As the viewer is led through the pipes to see where the water is going, the camera cuts between exterior views and interior views of the pipes. As the music crescendos, the water pressure increases. Finally the camera comes to a white room as water is pumped through a pressurized machine, which is forcing the water into the mouth of a figure that is blindfolded, bound completely in vinyl (or patent leather) and strapped to the wall.<br />
<br />
Because of the disturbing nature of the video, MTV would only play it late at night before removing it altogether. However, part of the video's finale became an integral part of the opening sequence for the network's ''Alternative Nation.''<br />
<br />
The video is feature on both ''Closure'' and the ''[[Broken Movie]].''<br />
<br />
==Live==<br />
Recordings of this song have been played as the introduction as the band takes the stage, sometimes with live vocals "FLUSH! FLUSH! FLUSH! FLUSH!" It was combined with the beat of "[[Terrible Lie]]" to open [[Woodstock '94]]. It was combined with "[[The New Flesh]]" to open [[Fragility]] shows. A very short version began [[KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas]], presumably because they were behind schedule in setting up the stage.<br />

<div>ballgameOver.mp3 ( http://anotherversionofthetruth.com/audio/ballgameOver.mp3 ) is one of the three (so far) mp3s linked to on the [[Another Version of the Truth (website)|Another Version of the Truth]] forums. It is about a man (presumed to be [[Angry_Sniper]]) who sets off bombs of Silver Nitrate in Wrigley Field, and shoots and kills someone.<br />
<br />
==Transcription==<br />
*Static, what sounds like someone turning on and adjusting a microphone.<br />
(If looked under a spectrograph, it is the American Flag. Possibly a twisted version of it.)<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Test, Test. In the old days if you shot a government spokesman at least you knew it would get on TV. There was more than one media outlet; like, they competed to cover news. *short, bitter laugh* Today, you have to start with something that the administration has to broadcast.<br />

TV Reporter 1: … go to the top of the sixth. Now he’s trailing by a run. St. Louis: 3, Cubs: 2.<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Step one: Grab as much attention as you can for as cheap as you can.<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 1: … Felch misses up the fast ball.<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 2: … Did you see that commercial we did for the president? He had been thinkin' of me?<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 1: … I did. Christ… <br />

''[TV audio continues under Angry Sniper's speech]''<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: I was gonna buy a little Helio something that I could remote control, but it was gonna cost me six grand *Chuckle*. So, I found a pilot. I offered him 500 bucks to fly a banner. We loaded one saying "Marry me, Irene." When he left I doubled back, I switched it out for one that said “THIS IS A BOMB FUCKHEADS, WAKE THE FUCK UP.”<br />
<br />
*A plane is heard flying overhead<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 1: … Some kind of small plane seems to be flying over the stadium. Towing a message… Maybe a message of love. That is no message of love, thats bad...<indistinct>no, don't point your cameras up there...<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: K, I called the authorities 5 minutes ago and I told them the pilot was a civilian; if they shoot him down that'll be on them.<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 1: <under Angry Sniper> ...keep your cameras on the field...<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Step 2: Deliver the message. I got a job at the park as a beer guy… I needed the money and hey, free beer. Can't pass up anything free in this country. Free this. I poured beer out of six of the mini keg size and put in a small explosive charge. I packed each keg with pamphlets saying "your government is poisoning you" and latex balloons full of silver nitrate. It’s easy to make and cheap as shit. Before the game I put the special kegs in trash-cans all around the upper level.<br />
<br />
*Explosions can be heard, screams of terror<br />
<br />
TV Reporter 1: … Oh god, go back. That's a bomb motherfucker. Oh god, it just went up in here! There's glass everywhere!<br />
<br />
Unknown Man 1: Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. No, no wait. Oh shit, her skin is turnin' shit brown.<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: I rented an apartment on the other side of Waveland Avenue. Made it back in plenty of time to set up my bipod and scope.<br />
<br />
Unknown Man 2: Where you been asshole? Get on the fucking P.A. or something. Fucking calm 'em, ya dickhead!<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: I used to be a sniper, 105th airborne crusaders, AMEN.<br />
<br />
On TV: Ladies and Gentleman, Wrigley Field has apparently been the victim of a terrorist attack. The important thing is for everyone that can hear my voice to remain calm!<br />
<br />
''(sound of the clanking and cocking of a gun)''<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Hollow points have stopping power in close, but they give you more air resistance at long range, less reliable. This range I use a light 50 with BMG steel jackets, pricey, but...sometimes the cost of liberty is 92 dollars a box.<br />
<br />
On TV(2): You, whoever you are you ragheaded asshole the cops are going to find you, and they are going to waste your skinny brown asses! You hear me motherfucker!?<br />
<br />
On TV: Listen, the important thing is that America will not give in to these cowardly actions of violence...<br />
<br />
''(sound of walking on wood)''<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Step three: punishment. These people need to know if they get on camera and they lie to America, they are going to pay a price.<br />
<br />
On TV(2): … When we find you guys, as god is my witness-<br />
<br />
*A vicious sniper shot rings out from the apartment<br />
<br />
On TV(2): … Oh Jesus… Christ… Someone shot him in the head...''[a bullet casing hits the ground]''... get us off the air.<br />
<br />
*The TV emergency system cuts on and then the TV is flipped off. Emergency vehicles are heard outside<br />
<br />
Angry Sniper: Bible thumpers in suits and thugs who raped and killed America; we're gonna sit there and watch them hump the corpse. A nation that sees them for what they really are is the only thing that these fuckers understand, force is the only fucking language they understand. It’s not about money, it’s not about money. It’s not about firepower. It’s about finding the will to act. A credit card and a hardware store can make you a hero. You can save America if you have the will.<br />

<p>Poo Bum Cheese: </p>
<hr />
<div>Many clues have been revealed as to the state of '''global warming in Year Zero'''. <br />
<br />
* [[Baseball in February]]: The posts on [[Another Version of the Truth (website)|Another Version of the Truth]]'s forum relating to [[Angry Sniper]]'s attack on Wrigley Field indicate it occurs in early February, 0000. This, and with the play-by-play announcer's comment on "a beautiful spring day" indicate that the Major League Baseball season has been shifted so that playoffs are in spring.<br />
<br />
* A message intercepted in [[The Mailstrom]], advertising Green Bay, Wisconson as a Spring Break destination. It mentions that Florida has become sunken (probably due to rising ocean levels), and that the South is "Hotter than a breakfast skillet".[http://www.themailstrom.com/atropine_gH319x.htm 1]<br />
<br />
* Another message intercepted by The Mailstrom, advertising an opportunity to hunt the last surviving Black Bear.<br />
<br />
* A newspaper clipping at the [[Judson Ogram]] site states that Hurricane Boaz came in February. Since it begins with B, we can tell that it was already the second hurricane of the year. This would prove that hurricane season doesn't end in the late fall as it does in the present, but rather stretches well across year boundaries. It is not clear whether hurricane season is year-round.<br />

The e-mail which is shown features a description of [[Opal]] stolen from a police officer and his reference handbook, as well as numerous crude drawings, including one of [[The Presence]]. It is definitely worthy to note that the page reads "ANGRY SNIPER sent you this message on Thursday, Feb 10, 0000." The title [[Angry Sniper]] is most likely a reference to the sound clip that features a man shooting people with a sniper rifle and setting off small explosives in a baseball stadium.<br />

Broken
2008-01-19T18:38:02Z
<p>Poo Bum Cheese: /* Track listing */</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Image:Broken.jpg|thumb|Halo 5 - ''Broken'']]<br />
<br />
'''''Broken''''' (also known as '''''[[halo numbers|Halo 5]]''''') is an EP released in 1992. Although not technically so, ''[[Broken]]'' is usually considered [[Nine Inch Nails]]' second major release after ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]'' since it consists entirely of new material; it was followed later that year by ''[[Fixed]],'' a companion EP of remixes of the songs on ''Broken.''<br />
<br />
Music videos were shot for each song with the exception of "[[Last]]," "[[Physical (You're So)]]," and "[[Suck]]." These videos were included on the second part of the ''[[Closure]]'' VHS set. [[Peter Christopherson]] also compiled these videos along with an alternate version of "[[Gave Up]]" into what is known as the ''[[Broken Movie]]''.<br />
<br />
==Inspiration==<br />
The release of ''Broken'' followed on from a major disagreement between Reznor and his record label at the time, [[TVT Records]], and the influence of the conflict is evident in multiple aspects of the record. After the credits in the packaging, a line reads "no thanks: you know who you fucking are" followed by "the slave thinks he is released from bondage only to find a stronger set of chains." This is most likely directed towards TVT Records' Steve Gottlieb, who refused to allow Reznor out of his contract, resulting in a legal battle between the two parties. <br />
<br />
Trent Reznor has also stated that during the [[Pretty Hate Machine Tour]] the songs grew more aggressive when played by a live band compared to their studio counterparts. Violence on-stage also became a common feature at their shows as a result of the band venting pent-up frustration and anger on their instruments. Consequently, ''Broken'' sounds much more abrasive and harsher with the increased prominence of distorted guitars, amongst other things.<br />
<br />
==Track listing==<br />
The original CD packaging included a 3.5" CD with the bonus tracks "Physical" and "[[Suck]]." This was later changed to a single-CD format with the bonus tracks occupying track numbers 98 and 99. Tracks 7 through 97 all contain 1–3 seconds of dead air, leaving a gap of 1:31–4:33 between "Gave Up" and "Physical (You're So)."<br />
It can also be noted that track 23 is titled as "hey lamar," when played through programs like Windows Media Player.<br />
<br />
#"[[Pinion]]" – 1:02<br />
#"[[Wish]]" – 3:46<br />
#"[[Last]]" – 4:44<br />
#"[[Help Me I Am In Hell]]" – 1:56<br />
#"[[Happiness In Slavery]]" – 5:21<br />
#"Gave Up" – 4:08<br />

== Press Sheet ==<br />
An A4-sized press sheet included with the 12" vinyl promo includes the following passage from Reznor:<br />
<div align="center" style="clear:right"><br />
Broken was secretly recorded from march to august 1992 in a variety of locations<br><br />
without the permission of<br><br />
the record label<br><br />
to ensure it could fester without Divine intervention<br><br />
now They just leave me alone and let me do what I want<br><br />
<br><br />
"Broken was a hard recording to make<br><br />
Broken is an ugly record made during an ugly time in my life<br><br />
Broken marks phase three of nine inch nails: the becoming<br><br />
I am starting to realize what this is all about<br><br />
and I don't like it<br><br />
<br><br />
Flood starting out producing but I ended up<br><br />
I'm not sure why<br><br />
<br><br />
maybe I am what everbody seems to think I am♠<br><br />
<br><br />
nine inch nails is still not a real band with real people playing real instruments<br><br />
there will be no touring for Broken<br><br />
<br><br />
I am starting work on my new full-length recording - The Downward Spiral - which I<br><br />
hope will be finished the beginning of 1993<br><br />

<br />
<br />
==Discovery==<br />
At the February 12th, 2007 Nine Inch Nails concert in Lisbon, Portugal, a plain-looking USB flash drive was found in a bathroom stall. It was found to hold a single MP3 file with the title "[[My Violent Heart]]". In the ID3 tags of that file, a URL, http://anotherversionofthetruth.com, was found.<br />
It can also be noted that on the Another Version Of The Truth page of the [[Year Zero]] booklet, the figures "HTTP://" can be made out through the over-typed effect of the text in the booklet, hinting the website.<br />
<br />
==Content==<br />
On first glance, the website appears to be nothing more than a large graphic, with a simple, patriotic, (if somewhat propagandistic) American message, not unlike the kind frequently used by politicians, and it is labeled at the bottom as coming from the [[US Bureau of Morality]]. Clicking and dragging over the image begins to reveal "another version" of the graphic, with the cheerful image replaced by a dark and bleak revision of the farm scene, and the text replaced with pessimistic and satirical messages. Once the new image is revealed, clicking the large bold words "Another Version of the Truth" takes you to a [http://anotherversionofthetruth.com/forum.htm message board] in which citizens of this particular setting are discussing many things about society, mostly involving resistance to the oppressive authority in place. <br />
<br />
===Forums===<br />
http://www.anotherversionofthetruth.com/forum.htm<br />
<br />
Background Text: [[Year_Zero_Banned_Media#The Hobbit|"The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien]]<br />
<br />
The topics viewable on the message board are:<br />
<br />
====End of the World?====<br />
The discussion in this forum centers around [[The Presence]] and what it may be, if it in fact exists. It also contains, in a post, song lyrics: "Used to be the leader/ now comes the time to serve/ maybe we show some mercy/ maybe you get what you deserve." The lyrics are from the Year Zero song [[Meet Your Master|Meet Your Master]].<br />
<br />
====Acts of Resistance====<br />
This forum mainly discusses an act of terrorism at a [[Baseball in February|baseball]] game that is alluded to by a poster named [[Be the Hammer|BeTheHammer]]. It is assumed that this poster is the same as the author of the [[Be the Hammer]] website, which he links to.<br />
<br />
====Cops Murder Muslim Kid====<br />
This forum only has two posts, but does link to an MP3, [[nohurry.mp3]], in which a media report is contrasted with a cell phone recording of what is revealed to be a police murder.<br />
<br />
====Violent Resistance====<br />
This forum centers around the debate which started in the "Acts of Resistance" forum over whether violence is useful in resisting the authority. It also contains a linked MP3, [[ballgameOver.mp3]], in which an assassin, most likely BeTheHammer, talks about organizing the attack as it happens.<br />
<br />
====Opal/Cocaine====<br />
This forum begins with a link to another MP3, [[opalo.mp3]], which contrasts a media report about the Colombian drug trade and a firsthand account from a Colombian woman, indicating that cocaine's downfall is due to global warming and [[opal]]. It should be noted that the woman speaking in Spanish does not have a Colombian accent, but it is an accent originated on or influenced by Mexican or Central American accents. This confusion is commonly observed in American films. It has not been clarified if this contradiction is intentional and meaningful or if it would be, otherwise, only due to a mistake during production.<br />
<br />
====In Memoriam====<br />
This forum has only one post, a notice to other forum members that the poster's brother was killed and the circumstances surrounding it.<br />
<br />
====Missing in Action====<br />
This forum lists the names of people who have gone missing, and one post from "Shatter36" indicating he or she is fine; the implication being he or she is one of the people named as missing above.<br />
<br />
The list of screennames on these forums is as follows:<br />

The last entry on any of the forums is 2/10/00 at 14:26, however, there appears to be evidence that dates were changed. [[Image:Date_mismatch_avt.png|thumb|302px|Evidence of date mismatch in AVT forum topic page. Click image for close-up.]]<br />
The "glitched" date of the Violent Resistance topic, below the topics on the background image of the topics page, appears different than the text written one. The background shows "Started by AVT001 on 02/04/0000" rather than "Started by AVT001 on 02/10/0000". This same glitch occurs within the discussion threads. Also, the '0's each of the dates' 10s is one pixel wider than other zeros in this same font. Both details suggest that the original dates of these posts may have been altered. It is not yet known the significance of this alteration, however.<br />

==== Art is Resistance ====<br />
The [[Art Is Resistance]] website has a [http://anotherversionofthetruth.com/artist.htm link] to an archived thread, entitled "Artist Behind AIR Goes Missing". The thread mainly discusses the usefulness of art (as opposed to violence) as a tool for resistance. <br />
<br />
In this thread one of the posters is named BanksyForDictator, which is a note-worthy allusion to the underground icon amongst stencil & graffiti artists worldwide. Art is an invaluable tool of the counter culture, & though many of his masterpieces are fun and light-hearted Banksy is a real world example of art's amazing power to transfer ideas and messages to those who would otherwise remain unaware. For more information on Banksy see [http://www.banksy.co.uk/ www.banksy.co.uk].<br />
<br />
Another important point made is by Philomela: "It makes it easy for you to think that the cops and the bankers and the soldiers are all Them. They aren’t. They’re us, too." The meaning behind this quote shows that despite a corporations & institutions being symbols of the enemy, the individuals within are not all necessarily enemies, but some maybe victims of circumstance.<br />

This page was found through the [http://yearzero.nin.com/survivalism/survivalism.pdf Survivalism lyrics pdf] posted on [[Yearzero.nin.com]]. Initially,it shows a page with a dated history of how America created a "new world order" in Year Zero. Similar to the splash screen of the AVT website, this is a propagandistic version, and there is hidden text which shows a contrasting, dissident view.<br />

Clicking and dragging the left section of the page to the right, and the top section downward, until the two line up, one can reveal the alternate text. (It is also possible to open the flash file called [http://www.anotherversionofthetruth.com/road.swf road.swf].

:(Page 1) Step 1: take a new gelled hydrogen power cell and swap it out for the old one in my machine. The point here is— --well, I’ll get to that in time. <br />
<br />
:(Page 5) Step 2: puncture the oxygen line into the power cell and cover the hole with a piece of masking tape. <br />
<br />
:(Page 10) Step 3: Affix a model rocket igniter and 10 second fuse to the masking tape. They have ‘em at any decent hobby store. <br />

:(Page 13) Step 4: Wire the igniter to a key…<br />
<br />
:(Page 15) … Say you wired the ~ key. When it’s hit, it will burn to the igniter which will eat through the tape and ignite the gelled hydrogen inside.<br />
