Musical style
Yung's musical style has been described as "genre-blending"; on Zombie-Change she rapped "over new wave-derived beats".[5] Later on Gang!, she delivered a performance that was J-pop-esque.[5]
Yung was initially a folk singer, but her musical style eventually gravitated toward punk and rock. She discovered punk through listening to The Ramones.[15] Her early music under her Zombie-Chang moniker was a blend of electro and lo-fi aesthetics.[15] Yung has cited French bands Sexy Sushi, La Femme, and Salut C'est Cool as influences on her work.[2][15]
Yung has stated that "her albums are full of memories and songs about personal experiences," and her music contains a mix of minimal electronic and live beats.[1] She has experimented in a range of sounds from "ethereal psychedelic indie pop to live band arrangements and heavy dance."[10]
