about this song
"Eraser" is the eleventh track on the 1994 release The Downward Spiral. It consists of a 6/4 instrumental ostinato that builds up from the odd sounds of humming and "erasers" (created by blowing into the mouthpiece of a saxophone) at the beginning through heavy rhythmic drumming and very oddly tuned, distorted guitars before dropping out to the 4/4 vocal area, which gets progressively louder until Trent Reznor yells "Kill me". It then completely degenerates into noise and cuts off with only the fading out of the string synthesizer.
