Minimalistic goth beats and basslines, synths that create an obscuring atmosphere and guitars that combined with the above are shaping a dark, cloudy, urban landscape embellished with ethereal vocals which intersperse melancholy, sableness and maybe a tone of despair but eventually their effect is definitely purgatorial.
P.S.: Those who enjoyed Makrina's vocals with "Incognita Sperans" are going to also love this release!
