** ''Modern Vampires of the City'' is one as a whole, being comprised largely of songs about loss of faith in various forms (be it in a religious context, through one’s relationships falling apart, or despair from the inevitability of death). It says a lot that the most cheery sounding song on the record, “Diane Young,” is [[LyricalDissonance explicitly about meeting an early demise]]. “Unbelievers” in particular is a hauntingly beautiful take on the album’s themes summed up in one song, while “Hannah Hunt” and the aforementioned “Obvious Bicycle” both touch on the slow effects of their respective events.
