The bands first two albums saw them playing a very melodic, gothic-influenced form of death/doom metal. The band began to delve more towards a more mellow, straightforward gothic metal direction with some hard rock leanings on 'Crystal Tears', but their work from 'Aegean Sorrow' onward sees them returning to their death/doom roots.
