• "Kid Nothing vs. the Echo Factor" is a commentary on mainstream rap music from Travis' point of view as a rapper himself.

• "Cupid's Chokehold" samples extensively from Supertramp's song "Breakfast in America".

• "Taxi Driver" is an homage to other contemporary bands in the indie rock and punk genres.

• The Papercut Chronicles version of the "Cupid's Chokehold" music video was directed by Andrew Paul Bowser who would later co-direct the "New Friend Request" video with Joseph M. Petrick for their album As Cruel as School Children.
