""Red Lips" was co-written by Shirley Manson, and was compared to material recorded by her band Garbage; Ferreira delivers "breathy" vocals with a "no-BS attitude" against a "distorted electric guitar gliding over battering drums".The fifth and final track "Everything Is Embarrassing" was described as "moving firmly into New Wave territory" Ferreira's vocals were noted as being "crisp and smooth", while the inclusion of "propelling percussion [and] deep-tuned piano chords" generated comparisons to music from the 1980s.
