The first single, <em>Design of Success<\/em>\u00a0is a strange and sexy look into an alien nightclub. <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vgiUtj8l0UE\">Dig A Hole<\/a><\/em>\u00a0features Steven Lind&#8217;s sharp guitar riff and monotone vocals riding the skeleton of a bass line into an incendiary proto-punk guitar solo.
