There simply is not enough information available to make any reasonable conclusion.

I noticed that the work ID numbers between each version of the songs are close to each other. This doesn't prove anything, but with other artists I've seen that songs registered at the same time have numbers that are near each other -- it could be an indicator that both parties discussed it and registered each of the songs at the same time. Or it could be 4 huge coincidences.

VOLCANO (Damien Rice: 520294559 / BellX1: 520294577)
TONGUE (Damien Rice: 501522678 / BellX1: 501522696)
FACE (Damien Rice: 360803712 / BellX1 360803730)
WOMAN LIKE A MAN (Damien Rice: 530967812 / BellX1: 530967830)

Tongue is registered without crediting Damien here:

http://repertoire.bmi.com/title.asp?...erytype=WorkID

What a ****ty thing to do, right? Nope, still don't know enough about the situation.
Could you tell me the difference between BMI and ASCAP?


And those numbers in ASCAP are sequential. It means Damien filed those songs alone, and BellX1 followed behind crediting everyone.
