* {{Sampling}}: Like other vaporwave artists, Blank Banshee does this a lot – including sampling his own work. [[note]]"Dreamcast" and "Gunshots" sample "Resistor" and "Negatives", respectively, by Shinjuku Mad, Blank's previous band.[[/note]]

* {{Retcon}}: ''MEGA'' was meant to be its [[https://twitter.com/blankbanshee/status/783413340861104128?s=20 "own thing"]] relative to ''Blank Banshee 0'' and ''Blank Banshee 1''. The XENOS Lab ARG for ''GAIA'', however, fuses the lore of ''MEGA'' with that of ''Blank Banshee 1''.

* SpiritualSuccessor: To Shinjuku Mad. Blank Banshee is Patrick Driscoll's solo project, but Curtis Ferguson, as Cormorant, appears often as Blank Banshee's lyricist and vocalist. It's to the point where the Shinjuku Mad track "Negatives" [[https://www.shinjukumax.com/shinjuku-mad-release-history no longer appears]] on the band's self-titled album, because it was "reworked" as Blank Banshee's "Gunshots".
