NINJA 2009 Tour Sampler (stylized as NIN|JA on the cover) is a free compilation by Nine Inch Nails, Jane's Addiction and Street Sweeper Social Club as part of the Nine Inch Nails and Jane's Addiction 2009 "NINJA" tour.
 It was released on March 20, 2009 for free, on the tour's official website.
 Both of Street Sweeper Social Club's songs that appeared on the album, "Clap for The Killers" & "The Oath", later appeared on their self-titled album.
 The two Nine Inch Nails tracks, "Not So Pretty Now" and "Non-Entity" were both originally recorded during the "With Teeth" sessions, but did not make it onto the final record.
 The two Jane's Addiction's songs are re-recorded versions of songs that had originally only live versions, from the band's first official record.
Nine Inch Nails (abbreviated as NIN and stylized as NIИ) is an American industrial rock band founded in 1988 by Trent Reznor in Cleveland, Ohio.
 The band released two influential albums during the 1990s – "The Downward Spiral" (1994) and "The Fragile" (1999) – and has record sales exceeding over 20 million copies worldwide, with 10 million sales certified in the United States alone.
"The Hand That Feeds" is a song by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released as the lead single from their fourth studio album, "With Teeth" (2005).
 It is the highest charting song by Nine Inch Nails on all charts except for US Modern Rock Tracks, where it stayed at number one for five weeks, because the single that followed, "Only", stayed at number one for two more weeks (non-consecutively), and the "Billboard" Hot 100 peaking at number 31, bested only by the group's 1999 single "The Day the World Went Away", which peaked at number 17 but did not chart anywhere else in the US and never had any popular success, making it one of their less popular singles.
 It is, to date, Nine Inch Nails' only single to hit the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart, as well as their highest-charting single on the US Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, peaking at number two.
 It was also a crossover hit, crossing over to pop radio as their first top 40 radio hit since "Closer" and "Hurt" in 1994 and 1995, respectively, peaking at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The Script are an Irish rock band formed in 2008 in Dublin, Ireland.
 It consists of lead vocalist and keyboardist Danny O'Donoghue, lead guitarist Mark Sheehan, and drummer Glen Power.
 The band moved to London after signing to Sony Label Group imprint Phonogenic and released its eponymous début album, "The Script", in August 2008, preceded by the successful singles "The Man Who Can't Be Moved" and "Breakeven".
 The album peaked at number one in both Ireland and the UK.
 Their next three albums, "Science & Faith" (2010), "#3" (2012) and "No Sound Without Silence" (2014), all topped the album charts in Ireland and the UK, while "Science & Faith" reached number three in the US.
 Hit singles from the albums include "For the First Time", "Nothing", "Hall of Fame" and "Superheroes".
 The band's fifth studio album, "Freedom Child", was released on September 1, 2017 and features the UK Top 20 single "Rain".
Nine Inch Nails is an American industrial rock band, founded in 1988 by Trent Reznor in Cleveland, Ohio.
 Nine Inch Nails live performances contrast with its in-studio counterpart: although Reznor is in complete creative control of Nine Inch Nails in-studio, he typically assembles groups of backing musicians to interpret songs for tours and other live performances.
 In 2009 Reznor announced that Nine Inch Nails was done touring, but that he would continue to create music under the name.
 In 2013 Reznor announced that Nine Inch Nails would return to the stage and revealed tour dates for the Twenty Thirteen Tour.
The Null Corporation (stylized as [THE NULL CORPORATION]) is an American independent record label founded by Trent Reznor in 2008.

"Only" is a song by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails.

 It is the second successful release that Nine Inch Nails has had in the UK, peaking at number 20.
The Slip is the seventh studio album by American industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, released on July 22, 2008 by The Null Corporation.
 It was the fourth consecutive Nine Inch Nails release to be produced by frontman Trent Reznor with collaborators Atticus Ross and Alan Moulder.
 The album was released for free under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-SA) license, with the message from Reznor, "this one's on me".
