* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Since they're a funeral doom band, it's pretty much inevitable that they mostly occupy the 10-11 range. However, they do this more subtly than you might expect: not all passages are drenched with guitar distortion, and in fact there are some very quiet passages in many of their songs, but on the whole, the heaviest passages of their music are so heavy, and their music overall is so bleak and despairing, that it's rare that any song qualifies below 10.

* DroneOfDread: Because of the extremely slow tempo of their music, it's not uncommon for them to hold a note for an extended period of time.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Their first single, "Towards My End", is straightforward DeathMetal with some doom metal elements, as opposed to the funeral doom sound they would become known for.
