!!The brothers gonna trope it out
* AlliterativeTitle: "Alive Alone".
* ContinuityNod: The titles of the album ''Exit Planet Dust'' and song "In Dust We Trust" are a reference to the early name of the group.
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The music video for "Life Is Sweet".
* EpicRocking: "Life Is Sweet", which is six minutes long.
* FadingIntoTheNextSong: The first six tracks are entirely gapless. Also, "Life Is Sweet" → "Playground for a Wedgeless Firm".
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, but for some reason, tracks 4 to 6 have titles that end up with the word "beats"; "Three Little Birdies Down Beats", "Fuck Up Beats" and "Chemical Beats".
* IntentionallyAwkwardTitle: "Fuck Up Beats".
* LimitedLyricsSong: The first track "Leave Home", also doubling with LoopedLyrics, has the lyrics at the start of the song with this:
--> ''The brothers gon' work it out''
* MinisculeRocking: "Fuck Up Beats", which is one minute and a half long.
* {{Sampling}}:
** The line "The brothers gonna work it out" "Leave Home" is based {{techno}} artist Blake Baxter's "Brothers Gonna Work It Out". The song also samples Music/{{Kraftwerk}}'s "Ohm Sweet Ohm"
** "Song to the Siren" uses reversed vocal samples from "Song to Sophia" by GothRock band Music/DeadCanDance, as well "God O.D." by Meat Beat Manifesto.
** One Too Many Mornings" uses samples of the songs "Peekaboo" and "Follow Me Down", both from the {{shoegaze}} band Swallow.
* SpecialGuest: Tim Burgess from the {{Britpop}} group The Charlatans sings the vocals in "Life Is Sweet" and {{folk|Music}} musician Beth Orton provides her vocals in the closing track "Alive Alone".
