Musical style

Storm the Sky's music is describable as atmospheric Metalcore, while the guitars are described as progressive.[10] On their second album the band combined their natural metalcore style with influences from Death rock and Pop music which led the atmospheric sound to be more in foreground.[11] The dark-sounding Synthesizer are comparable to U2, while the dynamics in their songs can be compared to hardcore act letlive.[12][13]
