Black metal slowly conquered the whole extreme scene, and appeared in plenty of mainstrem forms too. Neochrome's music was strongly influenced by these tendencies, and only a few characteristics remained that are not allowing to sort them to the lately formed black metal bands. One of these is their uncommon song structures, that are more reminding to technical death by their complexity and sudden changes, even though they tried to stay between the borders of black metal by their guitar themes. However the mixed influences are getting revealed with time, and the sound shows other alternatives too. Even the bass lines are quite complex, but already the fact itself that the bass could be heard in black metal would count as something extraordinary. The main view is chaotic, and not so easy to go into. The lyrics are definitely fit to the musical chaos by their mostly philosophical topics and social criticism. For the misanthropic and other personal issues the corruption of everydays life was found responsible. The individual struggle that was illustrated by the lyrical and musical complexity together, somehow reminds to the late technical period of Death. A raw, and interesting presentation of the modern sound of musical extremity.
