Doom Metal: Many of their songs are long, slow, and mournful, befitting this genre.

comment
Metal Scream: Nemethaga mainly uses Type 4 screams given that most of the band's vocals are comprised of clean singing, though Black Metal-style Type 3's are occasionally included in some songs, with one example being "The Black Hundred."

Religion Rant Song: Nemtheanga is open about his contempt for organized religion, and this is reflected in his lyrics. "Seeds of Tyrants" gives a clear example:

Pedophile Priest: "Ghosts of the Charnel House" is about sexual abuse at the hands of Catholic priests and the ensuing cover up by the Church.

Epic Rocking: It'd be easier to list their songs that are less than 6 minutes long.

comment
Horrible History Metal: Many of their lyrics are about the plight of the Irish people under a near-millennium of colonial rule, the Catholic church, and their own government. In a similar vein, "The Black Hundred" is about the forced industrialization of the Soviet Union under Stalin.

Harsh Vocals: Barring their very early material, Nemtheanga rarely does this, unusually for Black Metal. His delivery is almost always crystal clear with a hint of snarl.
