Tbh I dunno. It feels weird seeing all this from the outside. Guy has proof of the cassette, uploads proof with vague message, and never follows through/shows more. I really dunno what's happening here. I just hope it's nothing serious ya know

Actually he did an interview with us, some final edits are being made and it'll be ready soon. It was planned to be released after the Jeff Blue stuff... Jeff's stuff got delayed a good bit as you know and now this is going through some revisions before it's ready to go. Would imagine it'd be out in May. Not sure on the actual music as that is completely out of our hands, but just speaking about the interview.

That's cool to know. Even if we don't get the songs at least we get a bit more Xero history. You guys been doing a lot of work with these interviews so thank you! Can't wait for the future releases!

Nice, can't wait for more information about Xero. It's my favorite era.

So, apparently, it’s actually confirmed from TJ Demonte in that video that the audition tape tracklist is this:

 

Xero Instrumentals (send to all vocalists auditioning for Xero, including TJ Demonte & Chester Bennington) Tracklist: 

 

1. Rhinestone (Forgotten)

2. Pictureboard

3. Esaul (A Place For My Head)

Update 9 months later: Dave Garrett (former bassist of Karma and Relative Degree) has "Deftest" on a tape with "Dialate" that he got from Mark back in the summer of 1996, the summer after Relative Degree broke up. He even played a snippet of the song to LPLive during his interview with them a month ago. 

 

If you want to view the interview, here's the page: 

 

I even made a topic about his story that he shared with me:

Wow I had assumed that we would never hear anything from this song. This is awesome!
