So I'll ask you kindly to make your way
Lurching forward with a crunch and slump of a heavily reverbed guitar, "While You Wait for the Others" countered the flowy, dreamy piano chords of "Two Weeks." Brash, aggressive, "While You Wait for the Others" was still polite (so I'll ask you kindly to make your way), but Daniel Rossen's unusually direct vocals made it clear that it is not a suggestion, but a demand. Instead of giving way to a chorus that soars dreamily to euphoria, the harmonies are bracketed by terse, ragged guitars beautifully contrasting the angelic vocals. Rossen's matter-of-fact performance lend a wonderful shrugging off to any melancholia, leading to a song that is unmistakenly resolute in its kiss off and cut off.
