'''"Demon Seed"''' is the tenth and final track from the [[Nine Inch Nails]] album ''[[The Slip]]''. Its lyrics follow the same structure as "[[The Greater Good]]" and "[[The New Flesh]]," and the song uses the same drum loops as "[[38 Ghosts]]." Its time signature is 6/4, as [[Trent Reznor]] can be heard indicating in the song. [[Multitracks]] for this song (and all others from ''The Slip'') were released in [http://remix.nin.com raw WAV format] via [[remix.nin.com]].
The image associated with this song appears to be a four part image of a square becoming more complete or "growing," much like the lyrics portray something growing inside of the narrator. It should also be noted that the red lines seen in the previous pictures are all over, as if they have exploded out of control. In a Patreon Q&A session[https://www.patreon.com/posts/rob-sheridan-ama-34278427], [[Rob Sheridan]] was asked about the art for "Demon Seed" and he explained that it was "the end of the journey of the red line that moved through the artwork of that record, trying to make sense of the rigid forms, sometimes fighting them, before finally overtaking them. It was Trent's idea to have the line take over 'Demon Seed' so completely/aggressively. It tied in to the meaning behind the music, which isn't my place to discuss as TR tends to keep that stuff close to his chest."
