* NarmCharm: "Boiled Frogs" has George bellowing "POOR LITTLE TIN MAN!!!!". It's both as giggle-worthy as it sounds, and sad given the meaning of the song about a man being cheated out of a pension--and in general, the waste of youth upon soul-crushing, dead-end jobs/pursuits.

* NightmareFuel: The Canadian [[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a0/Orig_Crisis_300RGB.jpg cover art]] for ''Crisis'' shows a man with two ''extremely'' frostbitten hands. This is an actual reference photograph of a victim from the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blizzard_of_%2777 1977 Great Lakes Blizzard]], which is just as nightmarish reading.
** The title track itself is worth mentioning too. The song's main guitar riff is downright unsettling. The lyrics are about said blizzard, and George's screaming is ''far'' more menacing than it usually sounds. There's even a section where the song [[NothingIsScarier cuts out for a few seconds to nothing but complete silence]] before [[JumpScare George comes back in, screaming]]. And the lyrics?
-->There's nothing that you can do
-->The sky is going to crush you.

Fan Disservice isn\'t YMMV. Moving.


* FanDisservice: Please, George, keep your shirt on when you sing!
** To wit, George doesn't exactly cut a chiseled figure, and has a CarpetOfVirility. Some fans consider him very physically appealing, others don't.
