The Lost Tracks of Danzig, scheduled for release around November 2006, is an album that will showcase a number of unreleased Danzig songs, ranging from the bands first sessions in 1988 up until the sessions for Danzig's last studio album, Circle of Snakes.

Danzig has mentioned this in several interviews since 1999. Due to his touring schedule and various other projects, this album has been set aside several times. However, Danzig recently mentioned in an interview that after his touring obligations are up he will finally have the time to compile the album. Glenn on the set from an MTV.com article: "It's called The Lost Tracks of Danzig, and it's incredible," he said. "There'll be tons of old photos inside. There's a cover of Bowie's 'Cat People' that no one's ever heard. There's a cover of [T. Rex's] Marc Bolan's 'Buick Mackane' no one's ever heard, from the Danzig III sessions. Just tons of songs no one's ever heard, like 'Bound by Blood' and some other tracks. People will just be blown away." The article further said the set should contain 25 songs.

Glenn has said that he does not consider these songs throwaways, but that oftentimes the case was that the songs didn't fit the "theme" of the album. He also said that, if Circle of Snakes had a theme concept like his previous albums, the fan favorite "Black Angel, White Angel" would not have made the album.

It is currently unknown if the Danzig B-sides "When Death Had No Name" (from the "Dirty Black Summer" single), "Deep" (from the Songs in the Key of X X-Files soundtrack), or "You & Me (Less Than Zero)" (from the Less than Zero soundtrack, credited to Glenn Danzig And The Power And Fury Orchestra) will appear on the box set.

As of October 2006, no final track list has been released, although the following tracks have been confirmed in recent interviews: "Pain is Like an Animal", two versions of "When Death Had No Name", "White Devil Rise", "Warlock", "Lady Lucifera", "Satan's Crucifixion Points To Hell", the previously mentioned "Bound by Blood", "Cat People" (David Bowie cover), "Buick MacKane" (T. Rex cover), and "Crawl Across Your Killing Floor", which had a video shot for it in late July.
