By all accounts the Bones & All score is complete. TR was referring to a score still in the writing / recording phase.

Two things have been nagging at me. Can someone please, PLEASE ask TR about
1) schizophreniasdiary - https://www.echoingthesound.org/comm...hp/t-4827.html
— which seems to have been removed from ninwiki, @piggy?
2) If these tracks, along with The Idea Of You, did indeed date back to the With Teeth era and whether they are real?
(Excerpt from ninwiki With Teeth article):
Possible pre-release CDs
In January 2020, two separate CDs (marked as being from late 2004) surfaced that purported to contain songs from With Teethin 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 in 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 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."
It should be pretty well-established that the pre-release CDs were real, even though we haven't heard any legitimate audio from them. The first one that was brought to wide public attention was the eBay auction from Amoeba Records. Then a dude on the Nine Inch Nails Collectors Facebook group was like 'yo I've got one of those' and his had a more complete track listing, with largely the same artwork. This would have been more suspicious if you hadn't looked through his profile, and seen that he had a photo of his collection from years earlier, featuring that CD. I can tell you with 100% confidence that pre-release With Teeth CDs we saw were real, and there's no reason that dude would lie about what he heard on the CD he had. Probably should have kept a lower profile, but everyone underestimates the deleterious effects of NIN fan attention until they're the focus of it.''
I was kinda bummed when I finally came to the conclusion on my own that the audio on Archive.org wasn't legit (even though this had been debated and settled before I started tilting at windmills) - I had actually whipped up a pretty sweet digipak based on the artwork and was planning an Uncoiled-like physical component that, somewhat comically, would have been higher quality than the print-at-home promo CD saw on eBay.
As for the schizophreniasdiary stuff... Trent's pretty famously reticent to talk about lyrics. This is also, potentially, a publishing rights landmine. I think that in the case of this topic, *adjusts spectacles* you just want something you can never have.
“Att”
That answers a question I didn’t know I had
I'm not sure what you mean. Was there ever more about it on the wiki than the following blurb that we have?

SO, something amazing happened to me. Since today is Trent BD, I decided to leave him a message in his DM's. Didn't think too much of it. Short and sweet thanking him for 30 years of his music and how it's helped my PTSD and other mental health. And I thought it was going be just that
He actually DM'ed back thanking me
Between meeting Jerry Cantrell and now Trent Reznor messaging me, thanking me for the birthday wishes, I can now say that this month has been the happiest year of my life

Posted this in the Happy Birthday TR channel and Atticus seems to have gotten a kick out of it.

Wow I'm surprised his DMs are even on.
Don't abuse it folks!
Nicely done though @Dryalex12
That was a funny time in the discord today. Atticus knows how to party
You guys will appreciate this. Today's Question of the Day was: What is something everyone seems to like that you can't stand? Trent's response, and the follow-up:

I'm glad Trent seems to be enjoying himself in the Discord, and things have calmed down to where I can pop in on break at work or something and join in a conversation for a few minutes. I still prefer the pace (and after-the-fact readability) of a forum but it's still better than Facebook or Twitter in terms of actual discussions and content so I'll take it!
Yay Everything love! I’m sure trying to convince the now almost decade-old music video to be released is a lost cause, but getting it into set lists might not be!
time reset itself on the revelation of the clips being found recently so yeah, only a couple years ago.
hello fellow ets-ers. i need a favor from you. could you kindly take it upon yourselves to post discord summaries here in this thread? i’m happy to give shout outs on the hotline to anyone who supplies them. We’d like to keep a record of any significant band posts.
i’ve been meaning to do it myself but i’m a bit swamped as i volunteer for several activities and all of them are coming to a head this weekend. It would really help to have the people who are using discord keep track. otherwise i have to dig thru it which i’m getting better at but i haven’t had too much opportunity to do it since last week. thank you to anyone who wants to help.
