It's difficult to categorise the style but it's predominantly alt. metal, although, not really heavy metal, and then again, it's also 'heavy' but
more like experimental or actually what is known as thrash metal.
I bought the album shortly after its release, and I really loved the opening track "Fool's Stuffing", which is why I decided to purchase the album, 'cause it's a brilliant noise rock progressive alt. metal... composition. I also remember being more than just interested in the band because of the cover..., although, that wasn't really enough to go and buy it. Unfortunately, only the second track is also of any interest, and the rest of this 7-track album (with tracks running from 3:03 to 11:20 mins.) are not that good.
The album was launched to some enthusiasm but the band didn't receive much recognition for its music, and after their second (and slightly lesser) album Creampetal (1995) they disbanded.
