The first track, "Debaser", references a short surrealist silent film, Un Chien Andalou, made in 1928 by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí:

• The song's lyrics, "But I am un chien andalusia", mix
  • part of the French movie title,
  • the English name of the place Andalusia that Andalou ("Andalusian") pertains to, and
  • a Spanish pronunciation of "Un".
• The lyrics "Slicing up eyeballs, I want you to know" refer to the first scene of the movie. (That scene's visuals imply that a woman's eye is cut with a razor, and it is often recalled as actually protraying the cut.)
• The line "Got me a movie, I want you to know" reinforces both of these parallels by its explicit mention of film.
