==Vinyl Versions DifferencesMispressing==The version featured on In an email released by Sacred Bones, it was revealed that the original initial vinyl pressing features several differences when compared to the digital release. The piano is much sharper and less muted, some accidentally used an early version of the stringy sounding synth song, pressed from an early lacquer cut. Reznor and Ross had subsequently revised the reprise of song into its final version (as heard on the main piano motif is missingdigital release), and a new, corrected pressing of the drum outro is completely gone and replaced vinyl was made with nary a sign of a beat at allthis version. It's more implied The pressings are differentiated by bouncing synthesizers than their catalog numbers, with any kind of percussionthe original being SBR-190 and the repress being SBR-190-RE.
In an email released by Sacred Bones it was revealed that in fact the initial vinyl version is a demo, which Trent and Atticus decided to rework after the original lacquer had been cut. This will be remedied by a new pressing with the final (digital) version. The full message reads as follows[https://www.nin.com/nin-halloween-repress/]:
<blockquote>WE SCREWED UP. The audio contained on the 12” pressing of Halloween released on Sacred Bones is a previous recording of the Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross version of the song, which differs from what was released digitally last year. A lacquer of the 'previous version' was cut and then scrapped, because Trent and Atticus decided that they could improve upon the recording. They went on to create the ‘definitive’ track that is available everywhere digitally. A MISTAKE WAS MADE when pressing the currently available 12”, and the ‘previous’ version was erroneously included. To correct this unforgivable error, we are reprinting the CORRECT version and will provide it to you free of charge. We are currently working on the repress. As of now, we are expecting these to ship in early 2019 and will update you soon on the delivery timeline. As a NIN.com customer, you do not need to take any additional steps to receive your replacement copy. The replacement offer includes those who purchased from other retailers. Customers may contact the point of purchase for information on how to obtain their replacement.</blockquote>
