that Lazzara had recently left; an underlying theme of betrayal is present. The track's name came from the band's friend Mike Duvan who said the phrase "cut from the team". It opens with a four-chord guitar intro before shifting into single-note verses. The Nolan–Lacey romancing incident inspired Brand New to include "Seventy Times 7" on their debut album, Your Favorite Weapon (2001). Nolan wrote about the event from his point of view in Taking Back Sunday's "There's No 'I' in Team". The track also includes a reference to Brand New's "Mixtape". "Great Romances of the 20th Century" includes an audio sample from the film Beautiful Girls (1996), and opens with an electronic string line. It shifts into mid-tempo, accompanied by flange-effected and distorted electric guitars backed by frantic drum and bass lines. The lyrics discuss two lovers separating. "Ghost Man on Third" is an emo ballad that focuses on Lazzara's difficulty with mental health, specifically coping with depression at an early age. During the song's chorus, Lazzara said he does his "best Daryl Palumbo [of Glassjaw] impression" and electronic strings are heard. "Timberwolves at New Jersey" talks about being a musician in the New Jersey emo/post-hardcore scene, while of some lyrics take digs at former band members. Kevin Craft of PopMatters interpreted it as someone trying to console their friendo, who is inexperienced as romance: "The would-be suitor must improve the verses he’s using in his attempts at courtship if he wants to have any shot at impressing girls who favor 'literate boys. The title for "You're So Last Summer" came from the time Lazzara and Nolan went to the movies with their friend Sarah. As the trio left the theatre, someone said something and Sarah replied, "You're so last summer"—meaning late to the party. "The Blue Channel" opens with a piano intro; Lazzara said it and "Head Club" were songs the band used "to get enough songs to fill a record so we could go on tour". "Head Club" is about Nolan being exhausted with writing about Lacey after the romancing incident. The name of "The Ballad of Sal Villanueva" is a tribute to the album's producer Sal Villanueva.
