 ====== Songs ======
-===== Singles =====
+The EP takes The Ohayogozaimas' electronic focused sound to further integration, save for the short EP exclusive track, Before It Becomes Easy. This track features Utsu-P singing the chorus of the song. The track World Without Design features some clever songwriting tricks as it's in C# standard tuning for the majority of the track, before returning to the band's usual drop B tuning during the bridge section. This is also the first Utsu-P track to feature acoustic guitar. The 5th track, Plant's Big Laugh feels like an unconventional track compared to Utsu-P's usual style, the breakdown section and title references the opening theme for Dorifu Daibakushou, a Japanese talk show.
-====== Critical reception ======
+===== Singles and music videos =====
+The first single, Wait & See ~Risk~ was released on YouTube in March, the music video is shot in the style of an amateur full band cover video one might find on YouTube. The second music video was Do It Seriously which was directed by [[wiki:THINGS.|THINGS.]]. The music video shows an office worker going crazy at his job, and seeing the coworkers surrounding him do increasingly bizarre things starting with having tattoos, and ending with blowing bubbles around their head with bubble gum. The final music video, for the track Mockumentary of Tokyo was created by karekitsune. It's a lyric video with elaborate computer generated effects and visuals.
