* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Their black metal material is typically around an 8-9, while their neofolk material rarely rises higher than a 2. They can also hit any number in between - the instrumentals on ''The Mantle'' and "A Desolation Song" are mostly in 3-6 territory, while "In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion" and "...And the Great Cold Death of the Earth" are probably about a 7 (they have harsh vocals sometimes but aren't that heavy instrumentally).
* UsefulNotes/{{Pantheism}}: From "In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion":
--> Here at the edge of this world
--> Here I gaze at a pantheon of oak, a citadel of stone
--> If this grand panorama before me is what you call God
--> Then God is not dead

* SpiritualSuccessor: Pillorian, John Haughm's new band formed after the breakup of Agalloch, probably qualifies. The other three band members have formed a band called Khôrada with Aaron Gregory, formerly of Giant Squid, but have said not to expect their work to sound like either Agalloch or Giant Squid; they haven't released any material yet, however, and all they've really said about their sound is that it is "incredibly powerful and monstrously heavy".
