The song itself is divided into four segments that cover a wide range of genres: part one is a two-minute experimental metal segment from which "Endless Slaughter" gets its name, it's the longest and most structured part of the song.

Part two is a softer, somewhat ambient interlude that leads into part three; a glam rock-oriented breakdown and the shortest segment, lasting about 40 seconds.

The fourth and final part starts with a distorted guitar solo and quickly becomes a hip hop song that ends abruptly.
