- Faux Symbolism: Their cover of "Tainted Love" is quite explicitly about AIDS, but the music video also includes many brief, sudden flashes of Satanic imagery, for no apparent reason beyond being creepy.
- Harsher in Hindsight: "Who'll Fall," an outtake from the Love's Secret Domain sessions, is built around a message from Sleazy's answering machine. In it, a friend confides that his own friend had just fallen to his death. The band itself ended nearly a decade and a half later, when Jhonn did the same.
- Tear Jerker: The Ape Of Naples has quite a few, most of all their cover of "Going Up."
- From the same album there's "Fire of the Mind".
