Drummer Brann Dailor has said that The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, on which "Slippermen" appears, is his all-time favorite album. The song is part of the Rock Band 2 main setlist and also in Saints Row 2 as a radio song. A music video was created for the song which features the band performing in a cavern, Ruby Falls, while strange phenomena occur above on the surface in a forest along with people that are associated with the events. A live XFM version was featured on the Oblivion EP. (en)
