SDF debut comprises elements of hip-hop and metal and smoothly blends them together into a homogeneous mixture. Never complacent, the album is brimming with a variety of synths, loops, rap and clean singing harmonies that are vatic utterances to the street smart appeal of the lyrics. Tracks like 'Heavy Collision' are aggressive exhibits while 'Already Dead' and 'City of Skeletons' are more subdued. Influences ranging from Deuce and Hollywood Undead tether to an appreciable amount of cobalt riffs to make 'From the Ground Up' a viable commodity.
