Versions
26 Ghosts III
This is the only known version. The first half of the track contains short but repetitive riffs similar from the end of the track "Ripe (With Decay)" from their 1999 studio album The Fragile. A bass riff, synth pad, and heavy drums start the song, quickly joined by distorted guitars and percussive piano. Additional instruments including violin, synth pads, and tambourine enter and create a noisy, discordant atmosphere. The song ends as all instruments except a synth drone cut off. The drone plays for a few seconds, and ends abruptly as well.
Live
"26 Ghosts III" has never been played live.
Differences In Artwork
It should be noted that much of the artwork embedded in the files of the official download of Ghosts I–IV from nin.com are not just cropped versions of the photographs in the PDF. In this case, the two photographs are completely different.
