style

According to Sebastian Schilling from Rock Hard, the band play Progressive Death Metal. According to drummer Spencer Prewett in an interview with Schilling, “The Lucid Collective” is “a union of the mind-led beings of the universe” who “ created a common mind through lucid, conscious dreaming in order to form a new reality together, which can exist without the constraints of the linear course of time, so that all existences can exist simultaneously, regardless of whether they are alive, dead or dreaming ”. The motif of the album is the question of whether the human mind can endure and understand this fact. The lyrics would mostly come from Oli Peters. According to Toh Hong Rui from heavymetaltribune.com, the band play Technical Death Metal and have improved on The Lucid Collective compared to their predecessor. The style of the electric guitars is reminiscent of bands like Necrophagist , Origin and Spawn of Possession , while the songs sound like Hour of Penance or Decapitated in their more aggressive moments .
