2* EpicRiff: "Shot by Both Sides" is sometimes considered to have one of ''the'' great riffs.
3* NightmareFuel:
4** ''Secondhand Daylight'' is full to the brim with it, starting with what appears to be an impaled severed head on the album cover.
5** ''Real Life'' has its fair share of creepy and off-putting songs as well, such as "Parade", "The Great Beautician In The Sky" and "The Light Pours Out Of Me". [[FloatingHeadSyndrome That album cover]] is pretty unsettling as well.
6* SignatureSong: "Shot by Both Sides", ironically (and maybe a little annoyingly for the band) essentially a legacy from Devoto's days with Music/{{Buzzcocks}}. After that, the closest they come to this trope is probably "A Song From Under The Floorboards" or perhaps "Rhythm of Cruelty".
7* {{Wangst}}: While the band's angst-laden songs may be more than a little ironic, hostile critics sometimes suggest that they overdo this to the point of being irritating.
