The band plays the most obscure aspect of blasphemous death metal; a noisy, doom influenced and definitely not audience-friendly style, that was first introduced by Incantation. Even the guitar themes (that are lacking melodies completely) and heavy slow downs are strongly referring to their main metal idol, not to mention the deep growling vocal. The difference is that Father Befouled preferred longer lasting and more common slow downs that gave a very intense death/doom impression to the album. This of course didn't make their music easier to go into. The noisy, almost blackened sounding guitars combined with the strong echo effect created an atmosphere that's obscure and horroristic the same way. It's interesting because atmosphere creating is basically not the main purpose of this style, and those who are used to emotional-loaded atmospheric sound, may not even recognize this one. That's because by the lack of melodies it's demoralizing effect starts at the mind by causing brain damage. Their music is mainly recommended for Incantation fans.
