The mixing of genres is something that Dödsrit creator and sole member, Christoffer Öster has always done and done extremely well. As the main songwriter and driving force for Sweden's crust punk, d-beat, screamo, atmospheric, sludge, etc. Cult group, Totem Skin, Öster received a vast amount of critical praise through journalists and peers alike. Dödsrit doesn't necessarily take on as many styles, maybe limiting it to black metal, crust, d-beat and post metal, though as evident on Spirit Crusher, Öster's second album as Dödsrit, he's found the perfect balance to meld and create a staggering opus.
