}}[[File:TETSUO.jpg|thumb|''Tetsuo The Bullet Man'' CD Cover]]'''"Theme For Tetsuo The Bullet Man"''' is a 2009 instrumental track by [[Nine Inch Nails]] for the film ''Tetsuo: The Bullet Man'', the third in the Tetsuo trilogy of films by acclaimed Japanese director [[Shinya Tsukamoto]]. This was NIN's second collaboration with Tsukamoto, after the [[TOH (Top Of The Hour)]] MTV placement. The track runs 5:34 at two different tempos.

It is notable as not only the first new Nine Inch Nails track since ''[[The Slip]]'''s release two years earlier, but also the first NIN release to have no involvement from [[Alan Moulder]] since "[[Burn (song)|Burn]]" came out in 1994.

This is the only known version. Opening with approximately a minute and a half of buzzing and sawing machine loops at 104 BPM interrupted by quiet piano at an improvised pace, an A/B structure begins. The A section is characterized by a four-on-the-floor bass drum pulse at 104 BPM layered with distorted guitar loops, while the B section consists of the piano theme played on brass synthesizers at 110 BPM. Brief noise loops bridge the return to the A section, this time extended with variations. The piano returns to cut off this section and reintroduce the chord progression of the B section, which also repeats with variations until suddenly cutting off at the end of the phrase.
