Referring to their influences, most of their songs are based on riffs covered with distortion and overflowing echoes. They describe their sound as "bringing a high gain amplifier and drums into a cave".
The basslines are almost progressive but raw and primitive at the same time, the drumming moves fierce and violent on high tempo and in a sudden could turn calm into a drowning bluesy beats, while the vocals sounded like chants and moans, obviously affected by Plant and Ozzy . while they altogether religiously worshiped the Zeppelin and the Sabbath, each member also have their own musical background. Mirfak have always been a fan of the grunge god Nirvana, the highspeed aggression of Motorhead and anything masculine, while Jono is a heavy metal geek who embrace the holy father Dio , Iron Maiden and the uncanny Uriah Heep. Haikal adores the psychedelic echoes and progressions of Pink Floyd, the complexions of Robert Fripp and the zestful spirit of Jack Whites screech, Tama on the other hand has always been a disciple of Brad Wilk, and praises the likes of Sunn O))) and YOB.
Their interest in Sigmund Freud concepts of unconscious mind and their love for the whimsical world of surrealism are evidently showing in their lyrics. enjoying the exploration of absurdism and juxtaposition in their writings, Dali, Magritte and Chirico might have influenced them as much as Page and Iommi did, paintings made out of hazy poetry and heavy echoed chords.

Sigmun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shattered stones beneath the waves
My wandering mind awaits you
My wandering mind will find you
No my footsteps aren′t heavy
But I can't go alone
No my footsteps aren′t heavy
But I can't go alone
Come on in embrace me
Come on in embrace me
Oh their lights may drown me
Oh their hopes may deny me
Their cities may erase me
But in the air you will find me
Hear the sound of the howling caves
Shattered stones beneath the waves
My wandering mind awaits you
My wandering mind will find you
No my footsteps aren't heavy
But I can′t go alone
No my footsteps aren′t heavy
But I can't go alone
Come on in embrace me
Come on in embrace me
Oh their lights may drown me
Oh their hopes may deny me
Their cities may erase me
But in the air you will find me
The lyrics of Sigmun's song Aerial-Chateau depict a sense of longing and a search for connection. The opening lines suggest an eerie, mysterious landscape, with howling caves and shattered stones beneath the waves. The singer's wandering mind is eagerly searching for someone, unable to go alone. The refrain, "Come on in embrace me," is a pleading invitation for the object of the singer's search to join them in this desolate place.
The second half of the song speaks to the outside world, and the challenges and obstacles that may come with it. The "lights" and "hopes" of others may be overpowering, while the "cities" threaten to erase the singer entirely. However, there is a sense of hope in the final line, as the singer suggests that even if they are forced to disappear from the physical world, they may still exist in the "air" - perhaps a metaphor for a higher plane of existence or a spiritual realm.
Overall, Aerial-Chateau is a song that speaks to the universal human experience of loneliness and the search for connection. The haunting, otherworldly quality of the music and lyrics evoke a sense of mystery and wonder, inviting the listener to join the singer on their journey.

Hear the sound of the howling caves
Listen to the noise of the caverns roaring with echoes
Shattered stones beneath the waves
The stones broken under the water's surface
My wandering mind awaits you
My unsettled thoughts expect your arrival
My wandering mind will find you
My aimless thoughts will discover you
No my footsteps aren't heavy
I move silently and lightly
But I can't go alone
However, I cannot travel on my own
Come on in embrace me
Please enter and hug me
Oh their lights may drown me
Their beams could overwhelm me
Oh their hopes may deny me
Their aspirations may reject me
Their cities may erase me
Their towns may obliterate me
But in the air you will find me
Yet, you will locate me in the sky
