}}'''"Sanctified"''' is the fourth track on the 1989 release ''[[Pretty Hate Machine]]'', recognizable by its electronic tom-based drum beat and distinctive slap bassline, the only NIN song containing that playing technique. Its mood was altered from its happier form on ''[[Purest Feeling (halo)|Purest Feeling]]'' to a darker, uneasier one for ''Pretty Hate Machine.''
"Sanctified" has been a rarely played song since the ''Pretty Hate Machine'' tours, though when it is played, an extended intro is usually played during which Reznor addresses the audience.
The song was resurrected and played (as an altered version) on throughout the [[Nine Inch Nails Live NIN 2013-2014]] tour.
