Question NINs heaviest songs?

What are NIN heaviest songs?
I wanted to discuss the heaviest with different meanings. The heaviest emotionally, the heaviest tempo/speed. The heaviest distortion on any given song would love a discussion.

all of Broken is definitely up at the top, and i specifically think of the performances of Last from the late 2000s when trent's voice was all blown out and a bit deeper like here:

March of the Pigs is maybe the heaviest sound wise, but the heaviest emotionally are those quiet songs from the Fragile era like And All That Could Have Been, La Mer, or The Great Below. those almost always destroy me.
