Miscellaneous

  • Steve Bache (longtime drummer of North Carolinian rock band He Is Legend) filled in on drums for the first recording sessions of 721835 from December 27 to 29.
  • Many of the lyrics and titles found on the album contain allusions to movies, video games and other assorted pop culture.[2] "Horror Beyond Imagination" takes its title from the tagline to the fictitious Lucasfilm movie Blue Harvest.[3] According to Tinsley, "Horror Beyond Imagination" was inspired by various articles[4][5] about people who became "depressed and even suicidal" when faced with the fact they could not ever visit their favorite movie settings.[6]
  • The title for "Strange Acquaintance" is derived from a cocktail of the same name served at The Lantern, a restaurant in Chapel Hill.[7] The band would frequent the bar after recording sessions.
  • According to Tinsley, 721835 was originally going to be a concept album about a space adventurer on a planet of cyborgs as a metaphor for "rock music vs. electronic music" but lacked the foresight to successfully incorporate into the entire album.[8][9]
