Citizen Brain contains many subtle pop-culture references, with musical allusions to cult favourites The A-Team ("Final Fight"), This Is Your Life ("Sentenced To Thrash"), Mario Brothers, Tetris ("Final Fight"), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ("Return of the Technodrome"), RoboCop ("OCP") and Superman ("In The Court Of General Zod").
