Abigail heard similarities between this album and Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto.
Frances compared the vocals in Collapse to Joga by Björk.
The “reverse back masked” music video for Typical reminded Frances of the creativity and artistry of OK Go’s music videos. You can hear more about backmasking in our episode Tripping Walruses (The Beatles & Tripping Animals Brewing Co.) or in the Omnibus entry dedicated to the topic.
Frances compared the syncopated drumming of Darren King, Mutemath’s drummer, to the drumming in Take Five (Take Another Five) by Grover Washington, Jr.

Stall Out reminded Frances of Ride by Bond.
