Out of Modesto, California, Remains of the Tyrant push technical death metal into deathcore territory — intricate, machine-precise riffing colliding with breakdowns built to obliterate. Formed in 2013, they've carved a space in the Central Valley metal scene by refusing to choose between surgical technicality and brute-force impact. The result is music that demands both headbanging and close listening.
