===Song Credits===
*[[Adrian Belew]]: Guitar
==Versions==
===All Time Low===
This is the original album version. Following an extended ambient introduction, the main body of the song is introduced, with a dance beat loop surrounded by jangling guitars unique to this track; the bass riff and beat closely resemble, intentionally or not, that of the Abba ABBA track "The Name of the Game". It later The outro features descending, echoing synth melodies also rarely used in NIN tracks. Fans have noted that these arpeggios are similar to the crystal theme from the video game ''Final Fantasy''. The verse vocals recall the delivery used atop the similarly-danceable electronics of "[[Vessel]]." ===All Time Low (Instrumental)===Exclusive to an internal [[Columbia Records]] promo released under the name "Taxi Driver".[https://www.discogs.com/release/20508487-Taxi-Driver-Untitled]
===All Time Low (Todd Rundgren Remix)===
==Live==
This song debuted live on the [[2013/09/28 St. Paul, MN|first night]] of the [[Tension 2013 Tour]]. For this song, Palladino's bass is very prominently featured and if the song is present early in the set, it's generally the first use of the backing vocalists, [[Lisa Fischer]] and [[Sharlotte Gibson]]. The stealth screen in front has red thrumming coloration projected onto it for most of the song (similar to the general appearance of "[[Closer]]") before slowly becoming a multicolored aurora towards the end. At some shows, Trent sings the chorus to "Closer" during this portion, before the final repetitions of "stretch across the sky."
"All Time Low" dropped off the setlist during the [[NIN 2014 Europe/UK Tour|European leg of the 2014 tour]], and has not been played since.
