===The Great Destroyer: modwheelmood===
This remix by [[modwheelmood]] appears on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D.'' It begins with the vocals sung over an acoustic guitar before bass and drums join in as the first verse is repeated. As the chorus comes in, a synth beat and melody play under echoing vocals, singing a melody different than what's in the original version. Layers of sound are gradually added in the second verse, creating an ominous sound and tone to the song.
modwheelmood was interviewed by [[The NIN Hotline]] on March 1, 2008. Band member [[Alessandro Cortini]] said the following about the remix of "The Great Destroyer":
''Trent asked me to pick a song off Year Zero and to give it a try while we were on tour in Europe. The Great Destroyer is probably my favorite song off YZ, so I borrowed a bass and an acoustic guitar from Aaron and reconstructed the song in my hotel room in Amsterdam. I also used my Buchla 200e music box, which I love to death. I think I added a couple of tracks when I got back home, then mixed it and sent it in. To be honest, I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that TR liked it. I thought he would hate it since I changed the melody and chords around...''
