Their live performance is a colorful mix of experimentation, crushing industrial metal, electronic excess, high power abuse, and a show of hallucinogenic visuals - all created by themselves. Their music is multi-faced, intense, dark, deep, and trippy. On one hand, haunting and molten, on the other, "pure furious in-your-face hard-hitting industrial dancefloor/moshpit anthemic revolutionary noise attack". In public press, they are often described as the best live act from Estonia.

Pedigree Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
slowing
birth
progress
surpass
blurring
edges out of shape
feel so
passages of passion
messages of mess
fall driven
heartlessness
i am still waiting for this moment
burning
far beyond the sky
melting
mirrors out of time
standing
both sides of the door
blood wash
all over the floor
The opening lines imply an experience of being observed, growing under a looking glass, which invites the reader to consider themes of scrutiny and self-reflection. The overall message conveyed through the lyrics is one of progress and surpassing limitations, which is further explored through imagery of blurring boundaries and “edges out of shape”-- suggesting that growth requires moving beyond familiar boundaries and established limits. The line “feel so safe” serves as a warning against becoming too comfortable and complacent, as there is risk in treading familiar territory.
The middle of the lyrics shifts towards a darker tone, referencing “heartlessness” and “fall driven” experiences. Despite these struggles, the singer remains hopeful and “waiting for this moment”-- a moment of recognition, transformation or breakthrough. Imagery of “melting” and “mirrors out of time” suggest a dissolution of the self, an obliteration of boundaries and the ego. Finally, “blood wash/all over the floor” symbolizes a form of physical or emotional sacrifice as a part of the process of transformation.
Overall, the song speaks to powerful themes of growth and transformation, while leaning heavily on images of movement, fluidity, and progress.
