Singles and Commercial Success
The first single released from Insomniac was "Geek Stink Breath". The song was successful on both Top 40 and rock radio stations and peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay.
The second single, released exclusively in the United Kingdom, was "Stuck with Me". The song was moderately successful in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, but was not one of the group's bigger hits in the US.
The third single from the album was "Brain Stew/Jaded". Oddly, the two were separate songs (tracks 10 and 11 on Insomniac), but they were released together as a single and a music video.
The last single from the album was "Walking Contradiction".
