The songs on Pierce The Dark mix a variety of styles making The Rabbit's Hat difficult to pigeonhole, though I would describe it as jazzy melodic progressive rock. The band consists of Terri~B on vocals, Tim Jones on vocals, guitars, and programming, Steve Ellis on keyboards, Norm Emerson on drums, Rabbit on bass, and Martin Holder on guitar. The album's strength is well-written songs and lyrics, and Terri and Tim's wonderful vocals are the focal point. Terri has a gorgeous voice and Tim has a distinct voice which I suppose could be compared to Phil Collins. The two harmonize well and their style is soulful and at times quite dramatic giving the music a unique sound.Songs like "We Got Rot", "Sweetmeats Of The Dead", and, especially, "Dead Starfish" give front and center stage to these energetic singers, and these are among the tunes that rock out the most. And on "Baird, My Soul" Terri takes on a high pitched Nina Hagen sound. The band gets more overtly into light progressive rock territory on songs like "Darwin On The Shelf" and "Hiatis", with "Hiatis" standing out with its Middle Eastern percussion and melodies.
