Unreleased Songs
Some of these songs were “released” in some form or another, but they don’t fit neatly in any other category. Covers are excluded due to their authorship, as are songs you cannot hear in any known way. Songs John Darnielle or the band have specifically requested not be released or spoken about are also omitted purposefully. Know one I missed, outside of those parameters? Feel free to send me the song @alexbad.
