"Good Morning Revival" opens the album and acts as a sound collage before transitioning into "Misery".[13] Gilmore's production work on the first two Linkin Park records is evident in the guitar licks on this track, which recalled their Meteora album.[30] Discussing the track, Madden said they lived in a "world full of distraction, and no one is supposed to be sad or feel anything but great and happy and do whatever it takes to be happy".[8] "The River" features M. Shadows and Synyster Gates, members of Avenged Sevenfold, marking the first time the band had collaborated with another artist.[13] The track is reminiscent of Alkaline Trio and makes numerous references to the Bible.[30] It talks about people who get involved in the lifestyle of Los Angeles and lose their identity as a result.[12] Electro-disco track "Dance Floor Anthem" is reminiscent of the Rapture;[16] Madden said it is a break-up song that encourages someone to "[g]et out there and meet somebody, have a good time. ... Forget about it. Don't buy into the drama."[8]
A child of Hollywood and its strangely intersectional cultural landscape (her godfather was Igor Stravinsky), Babitz was first noticed in 1963, while in her early 20s, as the subject of a famous photograph, appearing nude while playing chess with the fully-clothed French artist Marcel Duchamp. (Her face was not visible, but her breasts certainly were.) She designed album covers for Atlantic Records, for Buffalo Springfield, The Byrds and Linda Ronstadt; hobnobbed with the rich and famous (introducing Salvador Dali to Frank Zappa); and dated a stream of celebrities (she convinced boyfriend Steve Martin to wear a white suit for his comedy act). And she wrote navel-gazing tell-alls with a disarming lack of pretension or self-censorship, contributing to such publications as Rolling Stone and Vogue.
