(it's actually more like A Violet Fluid, since the sole credit for March of the Fuckheads is to Adrian Sherwood, not Trent Reznor; added bit about vocals; removed External Links section)

"The Great Collapse" is the second track on the 2000 release Things Falling Apart, which is the remix album complementing 1999's The Fragile. Like "A Violet Fluid" on 1994's March of the Pigs, this track has mistakenly been called a remix when in fact it's an original composition.

It was initially recorded for The Fragile but didn't make it onto the album. The vocals appear to be altered to sound female, as there is no album credit for additional vocals.
