Influenced by the burgeoning UK rave culture and artists like 808 State and The Prodigy, Altern-8's sound is defined by its high tempo and anthemic quality. The duo is also recognized for their unique stage presence, often performing in chemical warfare suits, which became a visual signature of their act.
