Cathedral In Flames is a gothic rock band known for their atmospheric and brooding musical style that often incorporates elements of dark wave and post-punk. As their discography suggests, they have a penchant for dark, haunting themes, frequently exploring motifs of vampirism, pain, and existential despair in their music. The band's sound is characterized by intense vocals, somber lyrics and a fusion of traditional rock instruments with electronic elements, which can be heard in tracks like "Vampire Remixed" and the "Casablanca Remix" of "Children of the Blackest Hole."

Though their song titles evoke images of the macabre and the otherworldly, Cathedral In Flames has a flair for blending these dark sensibilities with catchy melodies and driving rhythms. This can be seen in their release "Rebel Yell," which likely offers a gothic twist to the classic song, suggesting an innovative approach to covers or original work. "Not Another Vampire Song" and "Hang Me High & Bury Me Deep" aptly demonstrate their thematic focus, while "Release the Pain" and "Black Train" hint at a narrative depth, encapsulating stories of sorrow and introspection that resonate with fans of the darker side of the rock spectrum.
