Watch Nine Inch Nails Perform "The Perfect Drug" Live for First Time Ever

Trent Reznor and Co. dust off 'Lost Highway' single in Colorado

Whether you heard it on the soundtrack for Lost Highway, or furiously tried to play the drum solo over and over in Rock Band, "The Perfect Drug" is somewhat of a mythical song in the Nine Inch Nails catalog, having never been played live. But that all changed at the band's stop at Red Rocks in Colorado when Trent Reznor and Co. decided to break it out onstage for the first time in their career. The live take is as flashy and percussion-heavy as the studio version, the string hits sounding as sinister as ever between the choruses. Not everything is the same, however: The song got a sweeping new guitar solo. Check out fan-shot footage of the historic performance above.
