The line between doom-death and funeral doom blurs with this release since there is relatively little death metal or phrasal riffs, and more of the approach Skepticism and Thergothon took with slow even chording of overlapping tone progressions overlaid with lead melodic rhythm guitar.

Producing a ponderous but adventurous atmosphere, this approach imbues the listening experience with a sensation of descent and the finity of mortal lifespans, feeling very much like looking over a wasteland of the past without a future and sensing a need to make suffering matter.

Vocals fit the doom-death paradigm, but more like funeral doom, this seems like a different genre than metal, keeping the heaviness but losing the bounce and bombast, producing instead an experience of submergence into a world without hope or desire for sunlight in a rainy night.
