"I Have Become Your Pupil" showcases Thou's signature blend of sludge metal and post-metal, characterized by heavy, distorted guitar riffs and a dense, atmospheric sound.

Tracks like "Curmudgeon" and "Milk It" feature a slow to mid-tempo pace, creating a brooding intensity, while "Aneurysm" and "Blew" inject bursts of frenetic energy. The use of layered vocals adds depth, contrasting harsh screams with melodic undertones. The album's distinctiveness lies in its ability to reinterpret iconic grunge tracks, infusing them with Thou's heavy, immersive sound, resulting in a powerful and emotionally charged listening experience.
