** "Hostages" is an upbeat, happy song about a hostage situation that's set to end very, very badly for most if not all of the people involved. The narrator, one of the hostage-takers, seems pretty cheerful about this.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: The song "Anglo-Saxons" conflates the Anglo-Saxons and the Picts to the point of claiming they painted their bodies blue. John Darnielle later admitted he was just trying to make up catchy lyrics and "Anglo-Saxon" sounded better than "Picts" in the metre of the song.

* UncertainDoom: The ''Tallahassee'' album brought the saga of the [[TheMasochismTango Alpha Couple]] to a close, with the last song, "Alpha Rats Nest," describing their house burning down. However, it's left ambiguous whether one or both members of the couple perish in the fire. Regardless, Darnielle has stated there will be no more Alpha Couple songs, so their fate is left forever unknown.
