The group combined a faceless, anti-corporate media stance with mythological, sci-fi narratives, to help heighten the dramatic effect of their music, similar to artists within and close to Underground Resistance. "Drexciya" was itself a name given to a myth comparable to Plato's myth of Atlantis which the group revealed in the sleeve notes to their 1998 album "The Quest" as being an underwater country populated by the unborn children of pregnant African women thrown off of slave ships that had adapted to breathe underwater in their mother's wombs.
