Musically, the band features both guitars in the indie rock style, and keyboards reminiscent of Philip Glass's minimalist style. The band's sound is space rock and lyrics generally focus on isolation in a high-tech world, albeit with a rural American spin. The band's lyrics and image could arguably put them firmly in the category of geek rock.
