Musical style
Storm the Sky's music is describable as atmospheric metalcore, while the guitars are described as progressive. 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. The dark-sounding synthesizer has been compared to U2, while the dynamics in their songs can be compared to hardcore act letlive.
