Caravan Palace (Music) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: <I°_°I> can be considered this, with the music taking influence from harder, more raw electronic styles, with slightly moodier melodies even in the comparatively brighter pieces. Also, the music videos range from symbolically confusing to outright horrifying. | |

Ode to Intoxication: "Spirits" seems to refer to the alcoholic kind being consumed. The lead vocals speak of experiencing euphoria and disorientation, then showing mood swings. The secondary vocals are the alcohol itself singing of its quality and merits. | |

Break the Cutie: The robot from the "Plume" video seems to genuinely want to get along with the regular citizens in Tokyo, but for various reasons, he gets constantly rejected. The climax involves him finally integrating into a group of Cosplayers and even confessing to one of them, who seems to reciprocate... until she realizes his robot head is Not a Mask. And then he gets run over by a car. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: In "Lone Digger", the club fight starts when one of the dogs trips the waitress causing her to spill her drinks on the cats. One of the cats slashes the throat of the top dog then one of the snakes takes the opportunity to try to eat the waitress. After it's all said and done, 90% of the people in the bar are dead over a couple spilled glasses of milk. | |

Revisiting the Roots: By the band's own admission, Gangbusters Melody Club was made with a "back to the roots" ethos after a string of New Sound Albums, culminating with the pop-oriented Chronologic. By contrast, Gangbusters Melody Club is a "best-of" invocation of their previous takes on electro swing, featuring the dance-heavy swing of their self-titled debut, the more ambient and relaxed textures of Panic, and the cinematic electronic-heavy atmosphere of <I°_°I>. | |

Indecipherable Lyrics | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_bb225804 | comment |
Indecipherable Lyrics: Between the Word Salad Lyrics, fudging English grammar, frequent audio filters (especially for backing vocals), and the singers' accents, many of the band's lyrics are hard to parse—which includes figuring out which parts are even supposed to be words and not scatting. The lyrics may also drowned by the music ("Rock It For Me") or sampled from other songs and scrambled (Clash). | |

Rejection Affection | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_c1c07d6f | comment |
Rejection Affection: "About You" is a back-and-forth between a woman rejecting a man who keeps trying to pursue her. The latter implies the former might actually love him back beneath her attitude, though she never confirms or denies it. | |

Shout-Out | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: As per their own word, the band gets its name from "Caravan" — the classic jazz standard by Duke Ellington — and Le Palace — a famous night club in Paris. The factory in "Rock It For Me" includes the gears from Modern Times and the "Moloch Machine" from Metropolis. | |

Interplay of Sex and Violence | |

Interplay of Sex and Violence: The — erm... climax of the "Lone Digger" video has a very bloody fight in a strip club, with the stripper continuing to dance even as blood splashes all around her. | |

Lighter and Softer: Panic, while building off many of the upbeat swing and jazz elements from their self-titled album, tones down the loud, rustic aesthetic for a relatively softer and more gentle sound. | |

Cover Version: They have a cover of "Black Betty", a 20th-century folk song that was also previously covered by acts such as Ram Jam, Tom Jones, and Spiderbait. No studio version, but the band has done live covers of Cab Calloway's "Minnie the Moocher" on a number of occasions. | |

Lyrics/Video Mismatch: The lyrics of "Miracle" encourage the listener to stop wallowing in self-pity and reconnect with friends and people. The video shows a conquistador discovering an all-female civilisation, really Human Aliens who forcefully use him as fuel for their sex-powered spaceship. | |

Lyrical Dissonance | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_dbfd6b8 | comment |
Lyrical Dissonance: The lyrics to "April" are soft and carefree in tone for the most part, mostly depicting cheerful, natural imagery, but are offset by the recurring line "April, please, lower your gun". What it actually means is anyone's guess, but it changes the atmosphere of the song considerably. | |

Platonic Cave | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_df24d8fa | comment |
Platonic Cave: A common interpretation of the video for "Comics". It features a masked lady in black watching over hordes of people in crab walks staring at the ground, until a trio notice their reflection from a puddle, causing them to notice the sky and instead turning towards it. This catches the masked lady's attention, and she flips them all back to re-impose her authority... and then everyone ditches her, leaving her alone and staring up at the sky herself. | |

Disaster Dominoes | |
Caravan Palace (Music) / int_e4ba33fc | comment |
Disaster Dominoes: "Lone Digger". One of the dogs trips the waitress, spilling milk on the cats who respond by killing one of the dogs. In the meantime, a snake takes the opportunity to attack the waitress which attracts the attention of the bouncer. The death of the dog leads to the bouncer getting distracted when he is sprayed by the blood. The distraction allows the snake to lethally poison him while one of the dog's friends takes vengeance on the cat by ripping his throat out. Another dog receives a nasty chest wound by one of the cats while the other dog gets the thin end of a comb shoved in his eye. The bouncer literally rips the snake in half length-wise and other members of the bar join the fight when they are enraged by being sprayed with blood. In less than a minute, 90% of the people in the bar are dead. | |

Disposable Sex Worker: In "Lone Digger", this is both subverted and Inverted! The bar fight is kicked off by a scantily-clad waitress spilling a drink on someone, but he ignores her to attack the one who deliberately tripped her. Then a second patron tries to attack the waitress, for no apparent reason, but the bouncer stops him at the last second. The whole time, no one attacks the stripper, and the video ends on her only just noticing that everyone around her is dead. | |
