+## Update: Alt tracklist
+
+So, a couple days after the release, the band announced a special edition
+of the album called Digital Remains, which is a digital bundle with a PDF
+containing promotional images and working drafts of lyrics. On one of the
+images, an alternative tracklist can be seen:
+
+![Poster with track listing scribbled at the
+bottom](img/clancy_review/alt_tracklist.jpg)
+
+The tracklist is as follows:
+
+1. Overcompensate
+2. Next Semester
+3. Backslide
+4. Navigating
+5. Routines In The Night
+6. The Craving
+7. Midwest Indigo
+8. Lavish
+9. Vignette
+10. At The Risk Of Feeling Dumb
+11. Snap Back
+12. Oldies Station
+13. Paladin Strait
+
+With "Midwest Indigo" between "The Craving" and "Lavish", it eliminates
+the greatest flaw of the album. I created a playlist in this order, and it
+did sound better.
+
+## Trivia
+
+Similarities between "Paladin Strait" and "Taco Bell Saga":
+
+- Over six minutes long
+- Has a reprise
+- Contains the phrase "put … where my mouth is" (TB Saga: "I put my
+ chalupas where my mouth is"; Paladin: "Put my money where my mouth is")
