Nojus music style varies from acoustic bard music to folk rock with strong Irish and Baltic folklore influence. Lyrics and strong melody are key features of Nojus songs. Lyrical side of music represents moody reality of life and hope for the better day.

Darius Mileris about his music:

"Music is the way of communication with people. You want anyone to hear the words you're singing, and the hope appears that those words can be helpful to someone. Besides, everyone wants to immortalize himself - to make a stroke on the Stone of Life. We do not seek everlasting life, we want to give a sense to what we are doing. There is such a little and great wish that people come to our concerts, understand us, and be sincere like we are."
