"Ringfinger" is the tenth and final track on the 1989 release Pretty Hate Machine. The demo version of this song was called "Twist," which remains musically almost identical but uses alternate lyrics. Opening with a thumping beat and a synth melody, Reznor's reverberating vocals dominate the verses. A different beat is introduced during the second verse, while vocal harmonies and a synth pad enter during the choruses. During the break, there is a short distorted guitar riff before the final verse and choruses.
