[edit] Singles

The first single off the album was "Do the Panic", a reworking of a song from their Phantom Planet: Negatives fan club CD. It was released in early March 2008 and was featured in an episode of Gossip Girl. The music video premiered in early May 2008. It is a horror movie spoof, showing the band members missing several body parts. This video also includes a short audio clip from a remixed version of "Leader" playing before the actual song kicks in.
