"Fenriz describes Pre-Historic Metal as 'a loose term,' stating, 'just figure it's our VIBE, our take on things and it's more a statement that we use old style to create something new.' He emphasizes their identity as metal with 'very loud guitars' and characterizes the music as 'frightfully barbaric but not without finesse.'"
"The band collaborated more than ever in the studio, with Fenriz noting, 'who's playing what is still in a purple haze,' indicating a more unified approach to their sound. He mentions a 'hardening of the arteries' in their creative process, leading to a decision to produce '8 effective songs brimming with riffs' instead of their usual airy plodding."
