The tapestry of the album is rather simple in contrast to all the influences that are obviously significant to the gentlemen of Obsequiae. The constant storms of medieval and folk melodies zipping above riffs often found in the niches of black metal and death metal are done in an unhurried, calculated carefulness that certainly does not qualify as 'busy music.' Most of this is mid-paced in nature, though blast beats and more up-tempo guitar parts still reflect a sense of tranquility. While the vocals are harsh, and moments of aggression are common, the end result is something unique; meditative and serene folk-ish medieval metal stuff. It helps that the band is never short on superb melodies or hooking segments within each tune that don't run on the gimmick of sounding distinctive, but instead greatly enrich the record's sound and explore its depth.

Songwriting is what comes first and foremost throughout "Suspended in the Brume of Eos." Its dynamic tracks and guitar parts were put together under the care of an idiosyncratic scope without driving them down into the bowels of unmatched pompousness. Fluidly the songs flow through a conduit of folk/medieval sequences always boasting rich lead guitar work on a large spectrum of sounds and influences, never once feeling unauthentic. The title track, in particular, sums up Obsequiae's strengths in a vibrant display, applying arrangements that drive on robust riffs while using phenomenal lead guitar bits and melodies to add a mossy, organic aura to the death/black metal overtones; it is a wonderful tune.
