==Outtakes==

The non-album tracks from this era are "[[Non-Entity]]" and "[[Not So Pretty Now]]." During a chat with fans in the [[The Spiral]], Reznor stated that these songs were outtakes from the ''With Teeth'' sessions, and studio recordings of them might one day surface. On March 20, 2009, Reznor released the long awaited studio versions as part of the ''[[NINJA 2009 Summer Tour EP]]'' via ninja2009.com.

On a PDF poster containing lyrics and credits posted to [[Nin.com/with teeth|the ''With Teeth'' site]]and later made physically available to members of The Spiral as part of the welcome package, several extra songs were alluded to but not featured on the album. All of these songs ~~except for one~~ contained lyrics in some form, though they were not entirely legible. These songs are:

* "[[Message To No One]]"

* "[[The Life You Didn't Lead]]"

On May 5, 2005, in the [http://www.nin.wiki/File:2005_05_05Questions8.gif Access] section of nin.com, Reznor simply replied with "?" in response to the following fan question: "In the .pdf file for the lyrics to the ''With Teeth'' album, there are [''sic''] appears to be songs listed with lyrics that do not appear on the Dual Disc CD/DVD album. Those songs include "Home," "Message To No One" and "The Life You Didn't Lead". Will these songs be released ever?"

A song with the title "[[The Warning (Year Zero song)|The Warning]]" is on ~~the~~ ''[[Year Zero]]'' ~~track list~~. ~~The~~ When the 2019 Definitive Edition vinyl of ''With Teeth'' was released, the aforementioned poster was ~~made physically available to members of [[The Spiral]]~~ re-created as part of the ~~welcome package~~packaging. Lyrics to "The Warning" were made legible and it was finally revealed that the track from ''Year Zero'' has its origins in the track from the ''With Teeth'' sessions.

*The nonIn a pre-~~album tracks from this era are "~~release article [~~[Non-Entity~~http://www.theninhotline.net/news/archives/backissue/03/11#1069729309/]~~]" and~~ for ''With Teeth,'' a song named "[[~~Not So Pretty Now~~My Dead Friend]]" was mentioned.Whether this is an earlier name for a song that does appear or simply didn't make the cut is so far unknown. It is speculated that it may have become " ~~They were eventually released on the ''~~[[~~NINJA 2009 Summer Tour EP~~This Isn't The Place]]''".

*In a ===Possible pre-release ~~article [http://www.theninhotline.net/news/archives/backissue/03/11#1069729309/] for~~ CDs===In January 2020, two separate CDs surfaced that purported to contain songs from ''With Teeth,'' in various states of completion, as well as outtakes that had not previously been mentioned. There were two different CDs: one with five tracks that were all released on the final album, and a ~~song~~ double CD (marked as being from late 2004) containing all of the album tracks (some finished, some in demo form) and several demoed outtakes on disc two. The previously unknown outtakes were named "Cover It Up", "Good Day", and "The End". "Cover It Up" was also reported to be an early version of "[[~~My Dead Friend~~The Idea Of You]]" ~~was mentioned~~from ''[[Not The Actual Events]]''. ~~Whether this is an earlier name for a song~~ These CDs were brought to the attention of [[Rob Sheridan]], who stated on Twitter that ~~does appear or simply didn't make~~ the five track CD "appears to be one of the ones I made (printing out on a home printer on cut ~~is so far unknown~~-out CD insert template paper) that we sent out to record industry people and potential collaborators. ~~It is speculated~~ " When asked on Patreon about the "new" outtakes, he stated, "I should probably not comment any further on that one, it ~~may have become~~ 's really not my place to talk about unreleased NIN stuff." The five track CD was sold by Amoeba Records on eBay, and images of the double CD showed up on imgur. None of the content from either of the two CDs has been shared. ==Definitive 2019 Edition Vinyl==A vinyl reissue campaign of the NIN catalog was begun in 2017 with three albums, and was continued in 2019 when ''With Teeth'' was released as the next installment. The item's description reads:<blockquote>"At long last, the Definitive version of ''With Teeth'', meticulously prepared by Trent Reznor, [[~~This Isn't The Place~~Atticus Ross]] and NIN art director [[John Crawford]]. Remastered in 2019 on 180-gram vinyl, with lots of details attended to that you may never notice but we care about."</blockquote> This edition of the vinyl comes with a booklet containing photos and an essay about the album. It also contains the lyrics, adapted from the old PDF poster.

==Instrumental Version==

In an [http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5937146/nine_inch_nails_let_it_bleed/ interview] in February 2004 Reznor stated that the new material was “more song-oriented (than ''[[The Fragile (halo)|The Fragile]]''). It's much more lean. It's going to be twelve good punches in the face -- no fillers, no instrumentals, just straight to the point…It's a complicated concept record, but reduced to just simple songs. It's not epic in its scope. It's minimal and a bit brutal." The album's final title may be a reference to a song of the same name by [[Related bands and artists#The Melvins|The Melvins]], as Reznor is a fan.

According to a statement on nin.com, Reznor stated that producer [[wp:Rick Rubin|Rick Rubin]] was Reznor's "mentor" and "source of inspiration" throughout the planning and writing process of the album. Reznor was also heavily inspired by the use of more analog electronic effects and instruments, specifically tape delay and modular synthesizers, stating that "computers, among other things, are ruining music these days. I hate the Pro Tooled sound of perfection and everything being 'fixed.' This record is most definitely 'un-fixed."During the recording of the album, Reznor listened to Gang Of Four, Public Image Ltd. and Pere Ubu.[https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2005-apr-10-ca-reznor10-story.html]

==Packaging==

''With Teeth'' was the only NIN album packaged without proper liner notesuntil the standard edition of ''[[Hesitation Marks]]''. Lyrics as well as detailed credits for the album were only available at the album's promotional site (both onscreen and in the form of the aforementioned PDF poster.) Reznor had originally wanted to release a more lavish package for the album once the second leg of the tour had begun, but this never materialized. Lyrics were eventually included in the Definitive 2019 Vinyl edition. In an interview with ''The Toronto Sun'', Reznor stated his original plan:

<blockquote>"What do you do when you buy a record now? I either download it or, more likely, I'll immediately put the CDs I buy in my iPod and then I lose them. Artwork is disposable now. I liked albums. It was an exploratory process. I don't see that with CDs. They're junk. It feels like we should just by-pass packaging all together. If you want to, you'll be able to buy a real deluxe book that the record fits into. It's a super nice thing that will have a big essay from me and a lot of pictures. It's more of a presentation and the artwork that you have now, that maybe you didn't quite understand, you'll see how it all fits into this. You'll get it."[http://www.theninhotline.net/archives/articles/manager/display_article.php?id=116]</blockquote>
