Stadium involves live drums (with Roto-Toms) played to a backing track of bass synths and swirling keyboard overlays. Lots of phase-shifting and fuzz-wah envelopes. The synthesizers add a pseduo-shamanistic trippy aspect reminiscent of motorik kraut-rock. The build-ups of each track invoke large-scale demented-drama. In honour of the prog end of stadium rock, Druid time signatures are used (eg. 5/4,9/4, etc.).

The dancers are in the showgirl vein: erotic, mucular, pulsating flames of flesh.

Philip is made up as an incarnate sprite of fetid rock: long-haired, white faced, blackened teeth, glittered chest, and track pants revealing a modest line of pubic haiir. Tommy Lee doing butoch versions of Carl Palmer covering AC/DC by way of Jeff Mills.
