Much of the duo's music also incorporates political themes, such as the tracks "No Sex With Cops" and "Satan Was a Babyboomer".[2][9][12] Daldas has described her vocals in the song "Good Girl" as feminist.[2] Brutalismus 3000 incorporates lyrics in English, German, and Slovak in their music (Daldas speaks all three).[1] The duo also says they incorporate irony in their music, and take influence from 2000s music.[11] The duo's music often has aggressive vocals from Daldas.[1][11]
