They are known for their old-school Swedish death metal sound, which has been heavily influenced by bands like Entombed, Dismember, and Celtic Frost. The band's music often explores themes of horror, death, murder, and witchcraft, creating a narrative that evokes the imagination of listeners. Their discography includes notable full-length albums such as "Decay of Darkness" (2011), "Into the Shade of Solitude" (2014), "Deathless and Fleshless" (2016), "The Nuances of Death" (2017), "A Whisper of an Horrendous Soul" (2019), and more recent releases like "Triumphantly Evil" (2021) and "Wretched Rituals" (2023).
