** The music itself is just as apocalyptic and chaotic as their other songs are. But what really sells this into nightmare fuel are the [[StopAndGo warped sudden silences between the verses]] each getting more panic-inducing than the last, eventually segueing into a [[PsychoStrings psychotic]] instrumental break that was presumably made in a deliberate attempt to make one feel uncomfortable with the jagged instrumentation and very quiet parts with sinister ambience that wouldn't feel out of place on any song made by the bands of the Rock in Opposition movement of the '70s such as Music/HenryCow and Music/UniversZero, given that both of these bands like to [[SensoryAbuse assault the senses of the listener as much as possible]].

* "27 Questions", this song is arguably the scariest of the album, both musically and lyrically. The instrumental reprises the unsettling vibe of the title track throughout most of the song. Lyrically, it tells of the events that happened in the final show given by the [[DeadManWalking soon-to-be-dead]] performer [[SadClown Freddie Frost]]. Whom the protagonist of the song had no idea that he ever existed until his friend told him that he was "a big star before the war". The show consisted of his life in an opera performance that lasted for 2 hours, his ''65 daughters'' sang about his ''likes and dislikes'', his ''exploits'', his ''undoubtable worth''. All that for Freddie Frost to make a really unnerving, lunatic entrance from a "sarcophagus rose". The song does [[GenreShift shift]] to a very operatic piece that really shows the hopeless situation Freddie Frost is in as he sings the song's titular ''27 Questions''. While the questions are as ambiguous as the song itself, what really makes this creepy is that he doesn't even manage to ask all of them (21, to be exact) due to his chest feeling "awful tight". Not only that, but the sudden return to the unsettling music of the first half shows us really [[{{Irony}} delightful]] imagery of his death as he rose on a hot air balloon, moaning in utter pain. The protagonist and his friends are so careless to the whole situation that they ''laughed at the sad old loaf in the way back home''.

* "Near DT, MI" focuses on the Flint Water Crisis, which is already unsettling in itself. [[MadnessMantra However, near the end of the song, Picton starts repeating "There's lead in the water" over and over again]].

* "Speedway" is an angular post-punk track that's surprisingly good at being creepy.
