Songs we don't know belong to what:

- "Reminder of How I Feel" (could be a Land of Hell or Colony song)

- "Break it Down" (unknown origin and the title is an unconfirmed one from Genius forums and YouTube videos)

- "Revolution Demo" (might not be Onyx Colony, this is from the Diamond Armada SoundCloud)

- "Take This Night Away"

Notes about the music:

- The version of "Wizard of Oz" included is the remake, and the original is lost media. (Borderlines also included this version)

- "Falling" was reused for "Rip Em Up" by Dagames.

- The version of "We Are Dead Inside" included is a re-recording. The original from the Diamondarmada2008 YouTube channel is lost. (Borderlines included the re-recorded version)

- "Torment" is a lost song mentioned in the description of the Youtube video "Banned University of Lincoln Advert" by tomska, It is unknown if it was a single or if it came from any of the mentioned albums.

- It is unknown if "Break it Down" had vocals or if it was an instrumental-only demo track or instrumental of any lost songs.

- "Let the Future Behold" was intended to be a rewrite of "Memories of the Damned" so they share the same instrumental.

- Songs without a date next to them were uploaded on unconfirmed dates and are not mentioned in Newgrounds or in any Youtube pages in The Wayback Machine.

- "Dear Humanity" was supposed to have a music video, but it never came to be.
