Singles

On January 23, 2009, Julien-K's Myspace page announced that, on February 17, 2009, their first single "Kick the Bass" (with "Dreamland" as a B-side) would be released digitally, coinciding with the planned end of analog television in North America. The explicit video has a sexual theme, including references to bondage and has a cannibalistic twist to it. The video was offered in two versions for different tastes, a clean version as well as an explicit one, with the clean version being released at a later date. As a teaser, the explicit version of the video was released exclusively on February 10 on Playboy Online which also had a cameo appearance by Linkin Park's lead vocalist, Chester Bennington, his wife Talinda, and Julien-K's Director of Activities Church. The site also offered a three-day trial to coincide with the release, though verification of age (18+) was needed. "Dreamland" was released as the second single from the album on August 27, 2010.
