Chthonic is a death metal band whose members doll themselves up goth fashion for performance, and whose lyrics are replete with political subtext. The group, which belongs in a class of its own, seems to have strolled out of some mythical realm portrayed in a Japanese manga comic and has attracted a corps of diehard fans.
「閃靈」屬於死黑金屬風格，上台表演時化「屍妝」，十分詭麗。歌詞則充滿政治隱喻，很有日式漫畫中的神話風格，在樂團中自成一格，擁有許多死忠歌迷。
