| Traditional Doom, Gothic/Doom Gloomy and mellow Doom Metal with sultry alto vocals. The first album, Shadowdance, is significantly heavier and colder than their later albums, perpetuating the atmosphere of "a fairytale gone wrong". Their second release, Fevered, introduces some tasteful Gothic elements, drenching their music in organs and bass-heavy riffs.

Altogether, their music could be seen as a doomier, female-fronted equivalent to Danzig or Type O Negative. |
