Trivia
- DEAD END's background and jacket depict a wall blocking off an escape path, as the title suggests.
- DEAD END's Single Expert chart had a timing fix on DDR X.
- DEAD END has a special Challenge-only version in DDR SuperNOVA2 that maximizes on all five aspects of the Groove Radar (Stream, Voltage, Air, Freeze, and Chaos). This version is named DEAD END ("GROOVE RADAR" Special). This version has BPM changes. It is arguably known as one of the most bizarre charts ever made.
- DEAD END ("GROOVE RADAR" Special) also appears as a boss song in the North American CS version of DDR X2. It is the only song with only a Challenge chart to be an actual boss song in a DDR game.
