Machine Girl, as described by its creator, is a genre-defying musical project characterized as "fucked-up electronic punk". Stephenson rejected the label of "industrial", deeming it too gothic and monochromatic, preferring to view the project as more colorful. Kerrang! recognized Machine Girl as a band pushing the boundaries of hardcore, noting their punk-infused and intense version of breakcore. Pitchfork defined their style as a relentless fusion of punk, grindcore, rave, industrial, and other influences, marked by unpredictability, animalistic rage, and uncontrollable energy.

The lyrics of Machine Girl's song Frenesi seem somewhat mysterious and difficult to decipher, leaving much to the interpreter's imagination. The use of repetition and various Japanese words and phrases adds to the enigmatic quality of the lyrics. However, one possible interpretation is that the singer is feeling overwhelmed and exhausted by something or someone. The repeated "Te-yo" could be a cry for help or a desperate plea for the situation to end. The phrases "Kurai bakari no" and "Kurai hazushi sugita" suggest a sense of dark and heavy burden or a feeling of being lost. The line "Ho-n ki meita-ta" might imply a sense of clarity or an attempt to find clarity amidst the chaos.
The rest of the lyrics paint a picture of confusion and entrapment. The use of the word "mission" suggests a goal or a purpose, but the singer seems unsure of how to achieve it or where to go. The phrase "Gyaku kaiten no yuwaku" might mean the temptation of going back or turning around, which could be seen as a hindrance to reaching the mission. The use of words like "nigate" and "tameiki" suggest a sense of struggle and exhaustion. Ultimately, the singer feels defeated and "nukan-" or drained.
