Hence, the sound on Onward to Golgotha has been characterized by a "morbid, funereal atmosphere", drawing influence from black metal and doom metal. Scott Koerber of Decibel described the album's sound as utilizing "swarming guitars, blasting darkness and crushing doom" guided by a "warlike, blackened death metal pace, with abstract leads and pinch harmonics illuminating the tangled mass." Greg Prato of AllMusic described the album as "the sound of being swallowed whole into the bowels of hell" and "death metal at its most extreme."
