“Big Man With A Gun” is the ninth track on The Downward Spiral.
The sample at the beginning of “Big Man With A Gun” comes from studio-altered recording of a porn star having an orgasm. According to the album booklet, this “sample” is titled “Steakhouse” and is credited to Tommy Lee.
In the 5.1 surround edition of the 2004 re-release of The Downward Spiral, the scream heard at the beginning is replaced with a distant wail, which echoes around the speakers.
Song Credits
* Production: Trent Reznor
* Mixing engineers: Bill Kennedy, Sean Beavan
* Additional guitars: Danny Lohner
* Steakhouse: Tommy Lee

This song is brilliant! I think that by giving words to the rape myth i.e. that unworded SOMETHING mothers scare their daughter with, Trent takes power away from it. Gotta respect a man who deliberately mocks the power of teh cock.
