}}'''"The Background World"''' is the fifth track on the 2017 EP ''[[Add Violence]]''.
===The Background World===
This is the original version. The looping degradation that closes out the track is likely inspired by ambient musician William Basinski's ''The Disintegration Loops''. Basinski was mentioned by [[Trent Reznor]] in a 2019 interview with ''Revolver'' magazine.[https://www.revolvermag.com/music/revolutionary-vision-nine-inch-nails-studio-visit-trent-reznor] The snare drum is [[samples|sampled]] from "[[Closer]]".[https://www.discogs.com/release/21291574-Nine-Inch-Nails-The-Background-World-Master-Tracks]
