The project is known for its many use of many instruments and blending music genre's such as Indie Rock/Pop, Psychedelia and Electronica. Their music was described by the Teesside Gazette (then known as the Evening Gazette) as "a madcap ride where melody is a mere by-product of their co-ordinated follies."
