A video for the song "Ghosts 'n' Stuff" was released in August 2009. "Moar Ghosts 'n' Stuff" contains a voice sample from the film The Brain from Planet Arous; "After I'm gone, your Earth will be free to live out its miserable span of existence, as one of my satellites, and that's how it's going to be...". It also contains a sample from a familiar classical piece Funeral March by Chopin. An unmixed version, called For Lack of a Better Name: The Extended Mixes was released on October 20, 2009.
