Trent Reznor sings "Suck" and produced it himself, but the writing credit is a crowded one: Martin Atkins, Paul Barker and Bill Rieflin share it with him. It turned up on Broken, the Nine Inch Nails EP released in September 1992 through Nothing, TVT and Interscope, the band's first EP and its second major release.
Broken was all new material, and it traded the synth-pop of the 1989 debut Pretty Hate Machine for something far heavier and nastier, a sound that pointed straight at The Downward Spiral (1994). The EP came with videos for five of its eight songs, censored for their violence, and a short film of the same name that never got an official release but leaked out on bootleg.
