Musical and influences
[edit]The band self-refer to their sound as "psychotic mosh metal",[7] with extreme use of dissonant chords, odd-time instrumentation, blast beats, and occasional lush, melodic moments. Some of their songs include electronic sounds of synth and programmed drums. The elements found in their songs are that of mathcore and death metal.
They are heavily influenced by bands such as Converge, Deftones, Botch, Coalesce[2], Gojira, and Slipknot.[8]
