The sitar-driven opening track, "Hangover", deals with love and being drunk, according to Gray. It is a delta blues song that opens with Ken Nelson misquoting the opening line from Pink Floyd's "The Wall" (1979), followed by a loud bassline. "Revolutionary Kind" sees the band mix country and techo, recalling the work of Alabama 3. Gray wrote the song in a house on Ash Grove in Leeds; when they were recording it, the hall they were tracking in would burn down frequently. "Bring It On", the name of which alludes to the band's debut, includes a reference to that album's opening song, "Get Miles". It ends with a raga rock coda; the song was written around the same time as "Tijunana Lady" (from "Bring It On"), though was abandoned and left off their debut. Gray wrote "Blue Moon Rising" as a reaction to the death of Princess Diana. "Las Vegas Dealer" begins as a psychedelic piece and vocal harmonies in the vein of the Moody Blues, before incorporating Eastern rhythms. Ball said it was written about a drunken night while in Las Vegas, Nevada with Nuno Bettencourt's father.
