'''''Ghosts I–IV''''' (also known as '''''[[Halo numbers|Halo 26]]''''') is the seventh studio album from [[Nine Inch Nails]], released March 2, 2008 over the internet, without prior information being released, and released April 8, 2008 in stores worldwide. It was the first NIN material to be independently released since leaving [[Interscope Records]] in 2007. The album is a four-volume, 2-disc release consisting of 36 [http://www.ninwiki.com/Category:NIN_Instrumentals instrumental tracks], featuring guest musicians. It is the most collaborative NIN album to date, with heavily shared songwriting and performance credits.
Deluxe and limited edition versions were sold through [[nin.com]]. Initial response was very positive, with heavy traffic causing servers to crash and all limited edition copies being sold in just over a day. [[Trent Reznor ]] confirmed on May 6, 2010, during the [[Htda Questions|HTDA Q&A]], that more ''Ghosts'' volumes are to come, most likely featuring the Swarmatron that was present during the ''[[How To Destroy Angels (album)|How To Destroy Angels]]'' recording. Numerous tracks from this album were used in the television docuseries ''The Vietnam War'', which was also [[The Vietnam War Original Score|scored]] by Reznor and [[Atticus Ross]].

===Extra Material===
Multitracks for two extra songs, "[[37 Ghosts]]" and "[[38 Ghosts]]", were found on the data disc that came as part of the deluxe and limited edition releases. "38 Ghosts" is very simillar similar to "[[Demon Seed]]".
==Inspiration==
<blockquote>"This music arrived unexpectedly as the result of an experiment. The rules were as follows: 10 weeks, no clear agenda, no overthinking, everything driven by impulse. Whatever happens during that time gets released as... something.
<br>
The team: [[Atticus Ross]], [[Alan Moulder]] and myself with some help from [[Alessandro Cortini]], [[Adrian Belew]] and [[The Dresden Dolls|Brian Viglione]]. [[Rob Sheridan]] collaborated with Artist in Residence (A+R) to create the accompanying visual and physical aesthetic.
<br><br>
We began improvising and let the music decide the direction. Eyes were closed, hands played instruments and it began. Within a matter of days it became clear we were on to something, and a lot of material began appearing. What we thought could be a five song EP became much more. I invited some friends over to join in and we all enjoyed the process of collaborating on this.
More volumes of ''Ghosts'' are likely to appear in the future."
