That's From A Basement On A Hill.
He just didn't live to see it released.

He didn't have anything to do with From a Basement on the Hill other than the songs themselves, some of which he didn't even finish mixing. Figure 8 was technically his last release, Basement and New Moon are just compilations.

if you want to get into technicalities then, yes, i suppose Figure 8 was his last finshed album. But it still showed his music was changing from the direction it orginally started in and it was the last thing he was working on before he died.

Yes, but he was heading in a more musically diverse direction it went from him playing guitar with may be some drums to a full backing band.

He never had a backing band he did it all himself and he'd been doing full band tracks since Roman Candle.

Uh, obviously he had to use a band live but he had no set "band" he'd occasionally have a guest musician doing something on the track but it was pretty much all him.
