The band is known for their blend of deathcore, djent, doom metal, [4] and blackened death metal, [5] and have been compared to acts such as Meshuggah and Vildhjarta, utilizing polyrhythms. They have described their sound as "Thall". [2]
Buster Odeholm, who serves as the band's guitarist, producer, and primary songwriter, has also been credited with shaping the modern "thall" sound associated with Humanity’s Last Breath and its offshoots. Gear Gods wrote that "when it comes to dialing in ultra-tight, low-tuned metal tones, few players have refined the process like Buster Odeholm". [6]
