Abstract 'Freedom Song' has bluegrass-gospel influence, which conveys Christian's sense of security and cheerfulness; 'Sloth' reminds one of psychedelic rock; 'Shortcut to Salvation' has hints of muzac and smooth jazz, its simple catchiness expressing the deceptively easy path to salvation. The more intense track 'Confrontation' clearly uses progressive metal's aggression and seriousness, while 'The Man in the Iron Cage' sounds more like a classic rock piece, drawing on that genre's nostalgia and angst. There is a good deal of choral layering of multiple voice parts (in the style of Kansas) throughout the album, all five instrumentalists providing vocals (with, moreover, a choir for 'Breath of Angels').
