style
The group's early work is attributed to Dark Rock . The group's first releases were mostly compared to genre artists like Zeraphine and the Dreadful Shadows . With the move to Out of Line, the group also changed their musical direction. More recent releases have shown a change in style, supposedly oriented towards Unheilig, towards pop-rock, with a tendency towards modern hits .
