2. (2:59) * Electronica with echoey vocals.

5. (2:45) Dreamy, dark, electronica, with back up vocalists. Almost goth country.

9. (0:52) Instrumental, noisy and epic
10. (2:02) Trippy electronica with lots of weird noises and piano
11. (3:37) Echoey chill, auto-tuned, lazy strumming, much falsetto
12. (1:54) “Fishin outside the safeway… chasin down cars… on the bus”
