Further Down the Spiral is a remix album by Nine Inch Nails, and was released on June 1, 1995. It is the tenth official Nine Inch Nails release and is the companion remix disc to The Downward Spiral. There are two editions of this release, one denoted as Halo 10 (released in the US and in the UK on the morning of release, to be pulled and replaced with Halo 10 V2 by lunch-time) the other as Halo 10 V2 (released in Japan, Australia and the UK), each containing a different set of tracks with a large degree of overlap between the two.

The album is among the best-selling remix albums of all time and was certified gold on June 26, 1996, for sales in excess of 500,000 copies in the US alone. Further Down the Spiral showed a more varied and experimental point of view to the original and boasted many high profile contributors/remixers including Aphex Twin, J. G. Thirlwell, Rick Rubin with Dave Navarro and Coil with Danny Hyde.
