Style

Although fundamentally a black metal record at its core, L'Ordure à l'état Pur exhibits prominent French folk music, avant-garde, and industrial elements mixed in with traces of ska punk, post-metal, and electronia.[5][6][7] Moreover, the album features the playing of instruments that are seldom used in black metal music including the trombone, accordion, timpani, cello and épinette des Vosges.

In addition to the name of the album itself, its song titles and lyrics are entirely written/sung in the French language – maintaining a consistency with the band's other releases.[8]
