Composition

The band maintains their metalcore sound throughout the album, although the track "Care More" has industrial influence.[8] Artist Direct has also noted sounds influenced by hardcore punk and heavy metal,[9] and Ultimate Guitar described the album as melodic metalcore.[10] The title is an allusion to Romans 8:18.[11]
