History YMMV / Krallice

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Listeners indisposed towards liking ProgressiveMetal or who think that BlackMetal should adhere to ThreeChordsAndTheTruth tend to have this reaction. On the other hand, another reaction to their second, third, and fourth albums was ItsTheSameNowItSucks as some listeners didn't feel like they had evolved ''enough'' (while others praised them for their evolution as a band; go figure). ''Ygg huur'' and ''Demonic Wealth'' definitely averted the latter trope, though.
* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: With their [[UncommonTime highly complex song structures]] and [[EpicRocking epic-length compositions]], their music can have this effect on listeners the first few times, especially on ''Ygg huur''. Given more listens, though, it starts to make more sense.
** ''Demonic Wealth'' also definitely can elicit this reaction from listeners, as it sounds like nothing else in their catalogue (and little else ''anyone'' has recorded).

* ArchivePanic: Their discography isn't exactly small as it is (as of June 2022, they're up to twelve full-lengths, many of which run for over an hour), but if you want to collect all the other projects the four members have been involved in, ''good luck''. All of the band members have been participants in upwards of ten projects each.

* FaceOfTheBand: Colin Marston, mainly due to his role as a producer as well as having a presence in Music/{{Gorguts}} as a bassist.

* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound: The synths on "Crystalline Exhaustion". Despite the {{Metal Scream}}s, the entire song is practically SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel. It sounds like the black metal song Music/{{Vangelis}} might've written, had he written one (the ''Film/BladeRunner'' soundtrack being a particularly obvious reference).

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: Given the precipitous increase in hate crimes and expressions of overt bigotry in recent months/years, the message of "Hate Power" couldn't possibly be timelier. Most of ''Loüm'' arguably qualifies as well.

* EarWorm[=/=]EpicRiff: For a BlackMetal band, they have a lot of really catchy riffs. It definitely helps that all four band members are highly proficient at their respective instruments.

* LoveItOrHateIt: Like [[Music/{{Liturgy}} a certain other black metal band from Brooklyn]], they frequently inspire very polarised reactions from listeners. They're not ''nearly'' as polarising as Liturgy, though, which may be because the latter band's Hunter Hunt-Hendrix seems to get a tremendous glee from ''[[TrollingCreator trolling the metal fandom]]''.

* AwesomeMusic: Lots of it, especially their original material. Particularly standout tracks include "Forgiveness in Rot", "Intraum", the last two songs on ''Diotima'', and "IIIIIIIIIIII".
