Musical style
Greycoats style can be described as melodramatic. They inspire an Orwellian theme in both their lyrics and communication with fans. They often will include video running along in the background at live shows. Videos have included images from movies such as The NeverEnding Story, Animal Farm, and Paradise Now.
