Musical style

While the album has the band's usual deathcore style, it showed a more unique sound compared to their other records, blending the genre with djent, progressive metal, and metalcore.[4]

Touring

The band would accompany the album with a tour of North America that took place in Mid 2024 with support from Inferi, Crown Magnetar and Tracheotomy.[10] and the Origin of Madness tour that will take place in Europe in early 2025 with Distant, The Last Ten Seconds of Life and Harbinger.[11]
