When ''Broken'' was first released, this and another extra track, "[[Suck]]," were on a Mini CD that was packaged with the EP. But after allegations that some music stores were removing the mini CD and selling it separately, the two tracks were incorporated onto the EP as tracks 98 and 99, with tracks 7–97 consisting of one second of silence each.
At the beginning (approx. 27 sec.) of the song, [[Trent Reznor]] can be heard saying, "Eat your heart out, Steve." This is possibly directed towards [[Steve Gottlieb]] of [[TVT Records]] with whom Reznor had been feuding, as Gottlieb would not let him out of his contract. The entirety of ''Broken'' was created without the knowledge of TVT.In the credits, "Barks and Roars" are attributed to Maise, Trent's dog at the time of recording. At 3:36, barking and "Ow! Fucker" is heard being played at half speed over the track, as Maise - then a puppy - was playing with [[Sean Beavan]] in the studio, and bit him. (One of the recording techniques employed on both "Suck" and "Physical" was to play the guitar riff at double the speed of the track, and play the resulting recording back at half speed, for a unique, extra thick sound.)
