Arriving after the group's relocation from San Francisco to Brussels, 'Holy Wars' showcases a significant shift towards a deeply unconventional, theatrical sound. The album integrates complex instrumentation, including prominent violin and saxophone arrangements, into a moody framework that highlights their avant-garde ambitions. It stands as a pivotal European-influenced release that distanced the band further from traditional rock structures.
