Description from their Bandcamp site:

"Their songs are rooted in a cold and depressive aesthetic expression, with a lyrical universe revolving around the dark corners of the human mind. Riddled with powerful highs and enigmatic, melodious and haunting lows, the music uniquely captures the essence of the modern post-black/post metal genre."
