The Great Southern Trendkill features some of the fastest tempos and most down-tuned guitars that the band ever recorded. It also has a more experimental nature to its songs, such as the acoustic guitar and keyboard-laden "Suicide Note Pt. I".Unlike Pantera's first three major label albums, the vocals are often double tracked and layered to create a more "demonic" effect.
