as musical influences. He stated his inspirations for lyrics comes from "processing emotions and life experiences" and "music as a means of catharsis". The band have said that they "aim to make music which resonates with people", and "focus on the sense of connection that music brings". Their musical foundations are indie rock and garage rock. Their earliest singles and debut EP "integrated a bold indie pop sound with their own raw Australian top coat... Packed full of pulsating rhythm and dirty guitars." All the tracks on ''No Way to Treat an Animal'' were co-written by Hardman-Le Cornu, Harper and Lama. By 2018 their sound provided a "brighter mood" and "light-hearted melodies" with "soaring vocals". ''In the Slight'' developed a "dreamy shoegaze" intersection with their "catchy indie pop". By the end of that year the group had "expanded their horizons and toyed with what's expected of an Australian garage-rock band." ''Sunlight''s first three singles "Good Grief", "Good for You" and "Head Cold" were all written before Lane joined the group. According to Ali Shutler of ''NME Australia'' the album includes "festival-ready songs that embrace a freewheeling joy... But there’s more to this record than purely chasing the roar of a crowd." Overall "All the jagged edges of conflicting genres are somehow smoothed out under their command and there's not a moment of their ambitious vision that feels uncomfortable." ''Here Comes Everybody'' was noted for its stark sonic departure from the album's predecessor, and praised by some outlets for proving development in the band's sound. Caleb Triscari of ''NME'' wrote the album dives "head-first into something the band didn’t explore too much in ''Sunlight'': dreary music for their equally dreary lyrics", particularly referring to tracks "Clean My Car" and "It's Been a Long Day" which "dial down the tempo a little in order to truly embody the deadening feelings they’re about".
