Influenced by the Skyla's background as a guitarist and vocalist, Blackburner combines elements of dubstep, metal, and electronica. Talon created buzz for Blackburner by remixing tracks and releasing original compositions through Cleopatra Records, initially placing Blackburner alongside dubstep artists such as Rusko, Nero and Dubba Jonny.

In the summer of 2012, Blackburner was asked to support industrial group Ministry on their AEG (Anschutz Entertainment Group) American tour. They also appeared at SXSW 2012. During this time, Blackburner met William Shatner briefly, inspring Skyla to write a sci-fi driven album, Planet Earth Attack.
