Goregrind, also known as grindgore, is a subgenre of grindcore, which is related to music styles such as death metal, thrash metal, and crust punk. The main features that musically distinguish goregrind from grindcore can be narrowed down to two main aspects: 1) The use of an octave shifter on the vocals, creating a unique low pitch gurgle texture, similar to the effects used in horror movies for a possessed, demonic, or undead character. 2) More of a reliance on metal influence, or more specifically, in later years, on a primitively constructed aspect of the downtuned textures frequently used in death metal, which had, in many cases, taken the place of the crust influence on its grindcore bretheren.

The band's other lyrics were similarly awash with complicated medical terms and stomach-churning bodily functions. Until their middle period where more focus on technicality and heavy metal with a variety of other styles, changed their sound.
