* ExtremeDoormat: "Soju" is about being a people-pleaser who goes along with things when she ''wants'' to tell the person to get fucked - the music video begins with her being talked into going to a party despite feeling sick. The chorus sums it up:
--> ''So here's another fuck you, don't you\\
Tell me what to do\\
Too old for this shit, I quit\\
Taking it from fucks like you\\
And maybe one day, I might say it to your face\\
Instead of swallow it down like soju!''

* CallBack: "Scream 2" references two previous songs:
** "Cure 4 Psycho":
--> ''This is not a song, it's an insurance policy''\\
''In case the psycho there's no cure 4 comes back to finish me''
** And also "Jabberwocky":
-->''And I fucking hate I let you suppourt me''\\
''The night that I met the Jabberwocky''

* SequelSong: "Scream 2" is a sequel to "Cure 4 Psycho", as the Youtube description states:
--> Scream 2 is the next chapter in a painfully relatable horror story for anyone who has survived narcissistic abuse. It's about the aftermath of escaping the narcissist. Once you remove their power, they may continue trying to hurt you by whatever means remain available to them: vindictive mind games, smear campaigns, sending flying monkey's to do their bidding, weaponising your trauma against you. This is a song about refusing to let them draw more blood. And, unlike the ''Film/Scream2'' movie franchise, there will be no further sequels. This ends here!

* AliceAllusion: The album ''Postcard from a Living Hell" uses this mainly as a metaphor for psychological trauma, most obviously in the tracks "Jabberwocky" (where vocalist Emmy Mack appears as Alice in the music video) and "Off With Your Head" (where she appears as the Queen of Hearts).

** Also a case of RealLifeWritesThePlot - As Emmy Mack put it,
-> “A person I’d never met before reached out over social media to give me a heads up that someone else, a total stranger to me, had been (and there really isn’t a more delicate way to put this) viciously blogging her attempts at home-wrecking my relationship.\\
\\
“Then, after being confronted with what she’d been doing, the bully backtracked and blamed her actions on her mental health. I am so sick of people using mental health to justify hurting and harming others. It’s not.”

[=RedHook=] are a rock band from UsefulNotes/Sydney, UsefulNotes/Australia formed in 2017. The band consists of lead vocalist Emmy Mack, guitarist Craig Wilkinson, drummer Alex Powys, and bassist Ned Jankovic.

Their debut EP ''Bad Decisions'' was released on 23 April 2021. A debut studio album, ''Postcard from a Living Hell'', was released in April 2023.

The band describe themselves as "screaming rap rock electro pop mutants", owing to their unusual combination of genres such as metalcore, electronica, and rap. Vocalist Emmy Mack and guitarist Craig Wilkinson work together to write the lyrics. Their sound has been related to bands such as Music/BringMeTheHorizon, Music/TwentyOnePilots, and Music/HandsLikeHouses from their "schizophrenic-style rapped vocals, bellowing screams, and soaring clean vocals".
