==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 contained lyrics in some form, though they were not entirely legible. These songs are:
* "[[Message To No One]]"
A song with the title "[[The Warning (Year Zero song)|The Warning]]" is on ''[[Year Zero]]''. When the 2019 Definitive Edition vinyl of ''With Teeth'' was released, the aforementioned poster was re-created as part of the 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.
In a pre-release article [http://www.theninhotline.net/news/archives/backissue/03/11#1069729309/] for ''With Teeth,'' a song named "[[My Dead Friend]]" was mentioned. Whether this is an earlier name for a song that does appear (such as "Beside You In Time") or simply didn't make the cut , is so far unknown. It is speculated that it may have become "[[This Isn't The Place]]". Similarly, there is a possibility that "The Life You Didn't Lead" informed or inspired "[[The Lovers]]".
===Possible pre-release CDs===
In January 2020, two separate CDs (marked as being from late 2004) 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 albumin some form, and a double CD 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 "[[The Idea Of You]]" . The five-track CD was sold by Amoeba Records on eBay, and images of the double CD showed up on imgur. No content from ''either CD has been shared. Tracks claiming to be from the five-track CD were posted to archive.org the same month as the eBay sale, but were found to be [[Not The Actual EventsHoaxes_and_jokes#With_Teeth_.22Tentative_Sequence.22_CD_upload|elaborate fakes]]''.
These CDs were brought to the attention of [[Rob Sheridan]], who stated on Twitter that the five-track CD "appears to be one of the ones I made (printing out on a home printer on cut-out CD insert template paper) that we sent out to record industry people and potential collaborators." When asked on Patreon about the "new" outtakes, he stated, "I should probably not comment any further on that one, it'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. Tracks claiming to be from the five-track CD were posted to archive.org, though they have since been removed. No content from the double CD has been shared.
==Definitive 2019 Edition Vinyl==
Reznor seemingly gained a new awareness of world issues, and showed this by speaking out against the US Government, as well as becoming a spokesperson for PETA. Some songs seem to deal with addiction ("With Teeth", "Sunspots"), while others have a more political intent ("The Hand That Feeds", "Right Where It Belongs").
==Packagingand artwork==
''With Teeth'' was the only NIN album packaged without proper liner notes until 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.
<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>
In 2021, Rob Sheridan revealed that gel electrophoresis was used in the ''With Teeth'' artwork, as had been suspected by some fans.[https://twitter.com/rob_sheridan/status/1470552048613478403]
