Philmore could be somewhat described as punk rock. In live performance they appeared entirely to be a punk rock band. Their music indicates that they were heavily influenced by MXPX. The band's music also had an 1980s edge of both pop and glam metal. Their reputation as a punk band was further reinforced by the fact that they were performing music that was not well accepted in their time. Justin's vocals were unusually high for a male, causing comparisons to be drawn between him and "Weird Al" Yankovic.
