'''''Broken''''' (also known as '''''[[halo numbers|Halo 5]]''''') is an EP released on September 22nd 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. The EP was recorded in secret, in order to avoid interference from [[TVT Records]].
It was followed later that year by ''[[Fixed]],'' a companion EP of [[Remixes|remixes]] of the songs on ''Broken.'' The typeface used on ''Broken'' (and ''Fixed'') is AkzidenzGroteskAkzidenz-Grotesk Black, which was also used to create the [[Nothing Records]] logo.
