Prior to the album’s release, Mulherin had already dropped seven singles – nearly half of the fifteen-track album. The first to appear on the album is
lights (4444), a track detailing the experience of being unable to escape withstanding feelings for a past lover. It captures all the best parts of his style: emotionally charged lyrics, a melodic and catchy hook, and an instrumental which incorporates emo guitars with hip-hop hi-hats and 808s.
The following track,
buck, fuses hard-hitting chorus vocals which are almost yelled at points, with an instrumental with uncompromising percussion to match. The track is infused with passion and aggressive emotion, and it is perhaps the most impressive non-single track on the record.
