===Head Like A Hole (Slate)===
The first track on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, this version contains more treble than its cousins and a somewhat dancier beat than most, along with higher pitched synths playing the bassline as a lead instead. It's intro is the same as the (Clay) remix. It also lacks the stereo wipe outro and instead simply loops as it fades out.
===Head Like A Hole (Copper)===
Present on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, the (Copper) remix seems to be a cut and paste of the various remixes above, containing bits and peices, loops and interruptions of the other songs. It contains the dance beat of (Slate) but has the layered guitaring of the original version as well as a slightly modified instrumental intro. It's outro is an odd drum loop that contains a bizarre squeak accompaning a ride cymbal.
===Head Like A Hole (Opal)===
Exclusive to the UK version of the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]] single, the mix is notable for it's "realistic" drums and strange instrumentation, much of which isn't present on any of the other remixes. It is perhaps the most unique remix, having a few lyrical differences from the original version of the song, as well as using an inverted version of the bassline rather than the bassline itself and a totally different drumbeat. The only element that found its way over from the other mixes is the wood percussion intro from the original version of the song, which the drum beat follows exactly. The song ends by fading away while Trent whispers "You know... you know who you are." repeatedly, a line of this song only found on this version of the song.
====Head Like A Hole (Demo)====
Present on the [[Purest Feeling II]] bootleg, this demo is a fake. It's actually the (Opal) remix from the UK release of [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]].
===Head Like A Hole (Soil)===
The longest remix of the group, it starts off with a distorted version of the (Clay/Slate) remix intro. It has the original drumbeat, but lacks the synth bassline which actually comes in during the middle of the song to lead as a bridge with some odd sounding synths. There are also some odd steel drum sounding synths which stereo wipe back and forth at various points in the song.
===You Know Who You Are===
The fifth track on the [[Head Like A Hole (halo)|Head Like A Hole]], this song is an instrumental composed of the background synths and various tribal rhythms and chants that compose the song. It's more or less a wordless "dub" version of the song and is notable for being the very first true [[Nine Inch Nails]] instrumental. The outro of the song is the actual intro to the original version of Head Like A Hole (This song is not to be confused with [[You Know What You Are?]], the second track off of the album [[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]])
