I think the next MAJOR question here is: as a community how can we reach the individual(s) who has their hands on the much longer tentative track list CD that Rob confirmed looked authentic and is linked above? I think that's where the real With Teeth era gold is.
If we are able to listen to the unreleased tracks on that, we'll have likely heard all the finished (or near finished) work that came out of the With Teeth sessions. I remember around the release of With Teeth Trent said he had enough material left over to fill about half of another full length record. Through observation and releases over the years we can know most likely what tracks he was referring to. We've heard many but not all.
1. Based on the Deluxe Edition With Teeth release and the new and improved lyrics posted we can see that The Warning (at least lyrically, potentially musically as well) was reworked and made it's way onto Year Zero.
2. Not So Pretty Now was performed live and later released.
3. Non Entity was also performed live, stripped down to piano and drum machine, and the studio track was later released.
4. Cover It Up (based on what the person in possession of the CD says) became the musical foundation for The Idea of You.
5. The End we've never heard.
6. Good Day we've never heard.
That's 6 tracks. About half of a full length record.
If we can convince whoever has that CD to share, that is likely all there is left to hear from that time.
