Darker and Edgier: Damnum. While, musically, things haven't changed much aside from a shift away from more technical songs to more proggy songs, lyrically, it's significantly darker with less science and more death and despair. Songs like "Called Home" are particularly heavy.

Progressive Metal: Damnum is a turn towards this, with far more of a clean vocal presence (particularly "Called Home", which is almost entirely cleanly sung), as well as more non-standard song structures and major tempo changes, though they had always flirted with this on their longer songs and had made it a bigger part of their sound starting with Proponent for Sentience.

Metal Scream: The song "All Hail Science" opens with a drawn out Type 2. Ezra mostly stuck to something between a Type 1 and a Type 2, while Riley mostly stuck to a Type 2.

Non-Appearing Title
 Allegaeon (Music) / int_67784113
comment
Non-Appearing Title: Mostly subverted. Up until their most recent album, of the 34 songs from their first four releases, 27 of them had Non-Appearing Titles. Often, though, a single keyword from the title would make its way into a song, even if the title wasn't used in its entirety.

Lead Bassist
 Allegaeon (Music) / int_6788e74a
comment
Lead Bassist: Brandon Michael is a Type A, Type B, and borderline Type D as per the band; while Corey Archuleta was a very technically accomplished player himself, he usually took more of a background role outside of the occasional melodic line or fill, while Brandon takes a significantly more active role, and the band has stated that Brandon's more active style played a big role in their stylistic shift. He also does most of the backing vocals live, as well as clean harmonies with Riley on certain tracks.

Ascended Extra: Jeff Saltzman started out as a live fill-in for Continuum, was drafted there as a full-timer after they fired Ron Casey, and was then invited to fill in for Allegaeon after Brandon Park left before the tour was cancelled, and was then made full-time at some point after that.

Take That!: As per Riley, "Vermin" is a shot at their old management company, who were completely useless and did little other than cash the band's checks while dropping the ball at every opportunity.

Lyrical Dissonance
 Allegaeon (Music) / int_dbfd6b8
comment
Lyrical Dissonance: Inverted. They are notable for their highly science-oriented lyrical themes, and while some songs mention death and allude to violence, many simply refer to mathematics or physics with very little to no lyrical darkness, despite the band's high rating on the metal hardness scale. Averted on Damnum. The lyrics take a much darker turn.

Soprano and Gravel: Riley introduced cleans (though he only used them on "Cognitive Computations" on his debut) and began using them more on Apoptosis, though Word of God is that they refuse to use them for hooks, and "Proponent for Sentience III - The Extermination" (which Riley didn't even do the chorus for) is and always will be the one exception to their "no big clean choruses" rule because they do not want to be that type of band.
