There's a record-"book"-cover pictured, yeah. I probably identified it as a book at the time of release (particularily in light of the recent MP book projects), but since TMM has come out that's now what it looks like.
Pretty neat: TMM is behind Behind the Sun.
http://www.reddit.com/r/motorpsycho has existed for a few years, but regular content has only been posted during the last year or so. I'd say the subreddit is ripe for expansion!
Incidentally, the interviews done before the Eggplant came out said that of the 20ish songs recorded, only the longer ones were chosen for release at that time, suggesting that there is, indeed, a batch of new, shorter songs available in the vault.
8 previously unreleased songs… knowing that they recorded 20+ songs for the Eggplant and Behind the Sun, could be an outtakes collection? "Forget it" would be one candidate, for instance.
The melody and chord progression during the verse in Dominoes is exactly the same as what ended up in Devil Dog, though. The Ebisu Guilty Dec 8, 2003 recording is an interesting listen – though with some poor vocal performances.

Speaking of Elephant9 w/Reine:
Some suggestions for On a Plate. The first verse I hear pretty much what you've written, then:
Now your man is doing time and it's all (you suffer)
Feeling all this self-ignoring sence of intuition
A vile, bitter dish, topped with hate, served on a plate
Who ever said it was easy out there
Vile and deceitful you're wearing your crown
It will just weigh your (moth-ridden??) conscience
Down! Down! Down! Down! Down! Down! Down!
I went back to some live recordings to see if they could shed more light on the words – seems Bent rewrote the lyrics, and it was indeed recorded along with the Eggplant songs. The version played live up until 2012 starts like this:
Dark is the passenger driving with me
His aim is true but not for long
With most fonts different letters, numbers and characters will have different width, making it hard to align tabs horizontally. If you use the CODE tag it will use a font with equal width and spacing for all characters:

E|———————-|———————|————————–3—It's one of the easier ones, fortunately.
The main riff goes something like this through most of the song, in the chord of B:
Code:G |—————————–|
D |———————–2-3-4-|
A |-2–2–2—–2—-2–2——-|
E |—————————–|Then there's a variation during the verses:
Code:G |—————————–|
D |———————–2-3-4-|
A |-1–1–1—–2—-2–2——-|
E |—————————–|And at the end of the verses there's this:
Code:G |—————————–|———————–|
D |———————–2-3-4-|—————5–5–5-|
A |-1–1–1—–2—-2–2——-|———–3-5———|
E |—————————–|-3–3–3—————|And a small breakdown that occurs a couple of times:
Code:G |————————–|————————–|
D |————————–|————————–|
A |-1—0–2—-1—-3——-|-1—0–2—-1————|
E |————————–|——————3——-|And that's about it! Listen to the song and pay attention to the rhythm and you'll master it in no time!
