}}'''"Pilgrimage"''' is the ninth track on the Left disc of ''[[The Fragile (halo)|The Fragile]].'' It is an instrumental track in a 3/4 time signature.
===Interpretation===The song "PilgrimageBuddha Boys Choir" presents a turn in , credited for background chants on this track, was actually (with the musical harmony exception of ''The Fragile.'' From the soft and melodic sounds of "[[Even DeeperKeith Hillebrandt]]" to the hardhitting riffs and lyrics of ", [[No, You Don'tClint Mansell]]" and Steve Duda) a random group of bar patrons who were brought in from Igor's Buddha Belly across the hollowness of "street from [[La MerNothing Studios]]" and "[.[http://www.theninhotline.net/archives/articles/manager/display_article.php?id=788] ==Recording==The Great Below]]," "Pilgrimage" represents a battle, a turning end of the tidessong features an entirely synthetic marching band arrangement. Whereas the album starts Its creation was revealed in an interview with the protagonist in the depths of a depression, whether it be emotional, physical, or both, leading up to this point the lyrical content and general mood of the songs is dark, reflective and introspectiveRolling Stone:[http://www.theninhotline.net/archives/articles/xart78.shtml]<blockquote>"It shouldn't have taken place, leading into "PilgrimageReznor says sheepishly. " representing his will to battle The track was done. But at the fears and pains inside himend, and continuing on through "NoI said, You Don'tThat's such a bizarre theme." The mood then changes again from proactive to passive with What would it sound like played by a marching band going down the songs "La Mer" and street?' A week later"The Great Below," almost seeming to state that - he tried to battle his demons, but then fell back into the pit he started nods in. On the Right side direction of one of the studio's king-size Macintosh computers - "there'The Fragile,s a band marching through the song. It'' this momentum repeats itselfs all on synthesizer." New Orleans, starting with the pains of emptiness and then gradually building to self confidencecourse, only is a city full of marching bands. "It would have been easier to slump back get a band than it was to where he originally started with do it the way I did,"[[Ripe]]Reznor admits, grinning."</blockquote>

==Versions==
===Pilgrimage===
This is the album version. Its abrasive guitar riff fades in from the end of "[[Even Deeper]]," joined at each repetition by new layers of mechanical synthesizers and percussion layers. These layers are soon subsumed by the main theme, played on synthesizers. After its repetition, the layers halt to simply a distorted guitar playing the same riff, which is then joined by drums, bass synth, and wordless vocal melodies. These layers soon crossfade with a return of the main melody, played this time on brass instruments accompanied by marching drums that fade in. Eventually, the horn and synth layers stop, leaving only known versionthe marching drums to repeat and stop suddenly, leading into the opening ambient pad of "[[No, You Don't]]. " On the vinyl version, the song does not fade in at the start, rather beginning with the guitar riff and building at its natural mix volume. ===Pilgrimage (Alternate Version)==='''''Running Time: 3:04''''' Released on ''The Fragile: Deviations 1''. Also known as "Pilgrimage" (Alt) when it was originally released on Apple Music as part of ''The Fragile Instrumental''.
