Style
Herald Moth continues where Daydream Anonymous left off in that most of its songs contain technical riffing blended with clean melodic vocal lines. The album is much heavier than its predecessors, with some of the riffing being directly mathcore influenced (such as that in Master Storm) whereas other riffs resemble heavier chugging breakdowns. Most of the songs feature finger tapping, a hallmark of former lead Guitarist Ben Konstantinovic who is a skilled airtapper and solo acoustic artist. Further to this songs such as Captain Killjoy and The Art of Moderation feature lengthy shredding style guitar solos, another new addition to the band's sound.
Typical of InMe albums past, the ballads on this album are emotional and powerful with the new addition of strings for a more grandiose sound. Most of the songs still have a regular structure but are very well thought out and more musically complex whilst remaining catchy. Some of the songs such as Ferocity in Desire retain InMe's grungy bounce of old but most are more mature sounding and showcase much improved musicianship.
