Using gritty black-and-white visuals intertwined with stylized form patterns, potentially triggering photosensitive epilepsy seizures, the indefatigable American auteur,
David Lynch, evokes memories of
The Alphabet (1969) for
Nine Inch Nails' music video, Came Back Haunted. Taken from their eighth studio album, Hesitation Marks, the song incorporates a sleek electronic bassline, edgy industrial beats and synthesizers, and an instrumental guitar break in a mature sound, enveloped by
Trent Reznor's subdued but intense vocals.
