Antonoff's influence is starkly felt, particularly via his Bleachers project. The song features underlying '80s-esque synths and pounding drums, altogether a track that absolutely wouldn't feel out of place on the band's Strange Desire album from earlier the year.

Where "Shake It Off" might have procured a country remix as a stretch, "Out of the Woods" is more like Red's "I Knew You Were Trouble" - an embodiment of the singer's new direction.
