While the band's debut album was more-or-less a combination of deathcore and mathcore, this release is more influenced by black metal, death metal, metalcore, and avant-garde metal. Guitarist Mitch Hein stated "Jocko really pushed us to be better musicians. The songs were dissected and put back together again with a lot of attention to detail."[2]
