Dude you weren't kidding! Just checked out The Poetic Edda and it blew my socks off. Thanks for the recommendation. This track was great but that EP is just insane!
100% - most brutal, epic, cinematic deathcore I've ever heard. His collab with Synestia was unlike anything I've ever heard, and his solo career is incredible. This guy was a real sleeper, but I think people are starting to take notice rapidly. He's going to be huge in the scene inside 5 years.
Saw them with shadow of intent. They were awesome and blake was very approachable and humble when i told him malphasian was one of the best metal songs i had ever heard!
God tier, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised if his hair was forced from his head because the ideas were pushing out too hard. If they can pull this off live, this blows Lorna out of the water, honestly.
As soon as I heard this I had to check out and see if you dropped a reaction because I completely agree with the thumbnail. These guys know exactly what they’re doing, pass them the rock they got the recipe. This shit is absolutely NUTS.
I thought their previous productions were really good, tiny bits of improvement could be made but basically no complaints. The production on this song got even better though. Kid's a fucking virtuoso. Happy to see a full band here. Disembodied Tyrant does everything I wish modern deathcore bands could do right. They have the vocals, production, and breakdowns on par with Brand of Sacrifice. They have the symphonic elements and better leads than Lorna Shore (I always called them Lorna Snore for having boring composition despite the talent they all have). I don't have time to finish my comment, I be shitting at work after clocking in 5 minutes late. But Disembodied Tyrant gets everything right at the same time. Old school deathcore deserves its own category (looking at you Psychoframe), but DT is all I wanted in modern deathcore but done right.
I think we just really had very high expectations from Disembodied Tyrant at this point considering the epicness of Poetic Edda EP. And I agree with that con that the song had so much ideas in it that made it chaotic. But if I'd judge the song for what it is, it would be a 9 since it could still be a trendsetter for other bands to follow. They could indeed be well the kings of deathcore for sure.
1000 heads = 1000 opinions Cons for you are pros for me. I love that the ideas are mixed even it does not match 100%, like it does not follow the same speed or tone. Just comparing old classical music modern one. What if Mozart or Bach used disharmony in their songs. It wouldnt be accepted at all. And modern classical music is full of disharmony and chaos as well. For me it reflects the evolution of humanity as well.. so finally someone took this step in deathcore and brought it out on high level of art and musicality. It's not brainless chaos. I hear chaos that makes sense and that has rules as well. Just new rules.. And I love it. The music now brings even more joy and emotions to me. Can't wait for more!
Blake is a genius. Also a producer on the new shadow of intent song. I'm so stoked to see he has a full band now. Can't believe he's playing guitar and doing vocals live. WILDLY TALENTED. Definitely want a drum playthrough as well.
I find that they write great MUSIC. The music is heavy as heck, but they utilize it to tell a story rather than have it just be heavy for the sake of being heavy or to try and win the breakdown competition (although the do that too). Really love their classical fusion/inspiration which keeps it interesting!
That's why your reviews are so relevant!! You listen really closely and don't get blindly hyped, even when it's stuff from your favorite bands. Riffs and Drumming are super impressive in this one, from a pure technical stand point, but it's lacking the epicness and groove from the Poetic Edda EP
This dude could scream the phone book while playing the rhythm of twinkle twinkle little star and it'd sound epic. Man, I really hope he doesn't turn out to be a creep or something. If he can act right, he and DT have a bright future. I agree with your cons though, it definitely felt less tightly constructed. It was awesome, and not every piece has to be the same as every other piece of course, but I felt like a tighter structure would have helped it hit harder.
Agree with all your cons, one extra pro I would say is that they didn't go for another brutal breakdown during the outro. I feel like that's done so much now that it kinda would have subtracted from the song. Would've like to see the more calm sections drawn out a bit more
Agree- Blake is an amazing vocalist, but the Synestia collab was god-tier. The neoclassical elements, and overall cinematic grandiosity with the choir vocals and live strings, along with the frantic, melodic riffs, were what really made it all come together. There's a lot of deathcore bands that use keyboard strings and choir sounds, and are just kind of ok- Blake is too talented a producer and vocalist to be wasted on the mundane. All in all, wasn't bad, but it's not something I'd go out of my to listen to again.
This is great, birb, if you havent already heard them the band 68’ their frontman is josh scogin. It’s like a garage punk noise rock group. Reminds me of every time I die but it’s not metalcore based. Pretty great though, scogin is that guy.
Fully agree with you. Just too chaotic in my opinion, lacked a cohesive melody for me. Outro bit was sick. You can tell they have all the talent and skill, just gotta structure it properly.
I think at least this song it felt more on the death metal side of deathcore I think it was a good song I think the same with the poetic edda ep which is hard to live up to that standard especially when it’s your first thing you put out that got a lot of traction but I think they may be going in the direction Shadow of Intent is going if so then it’ll be good whatever they put out

Just feels like they're about to hit their second form, and that is scary considering what their first form is.
Well said.
And im totally here for it, their sound is fucking amazing.
Apt. Incredibly apt
Doing these vocals while playing and being able to shred.... Dude is Flexing on everyone!
Blake is one of those "everything he touches turns to gold" type artists.
He is what Buster is to Thall
Was waiting for this reaction, because I was mind-blown with this song last night.
Shadow of Intent, then this... what a fun week.
Don't forget whitechapel they have entry too! What a September deathcore Fest!!
Dude you weren't kidding! Just checked out The Poetic Edda and it blew my socks off. Thanks for the recommendation.
This track was great but that EP is just insane!
They're the final boss of deathcore
Disembodied tyrants just keeps getting better! Rather uniqe sound at parts and just overall awesome!! S tier band!
100% - most brutal, epic, cinematic deathcore I've ever heard. His collab with Synestia was unlike anything I've ever heard, and his solo career is incredible.

I just can’t get enough. My mind melts at the drum work everytime.
Stoked to see them live. I fully prepare to have to pick my face up off the floor afterwards.
nah mate, it'll get melted off. best make peace with it now.
Definitely some Igorrr influence here, and I love it
Thought so too, it sounds like Igorrr
Actual crazy lore drop, didn't know he had some guys from fallujah in the project
This might be one of the best blackened deathcore songs I’ve ever heard. Hell, maybe one of the best songs I’ve ever heard.
This ain't even deathcore anymore, it's Neo-Classical Slam Tech-Death and I'm here for it!
Blake said that he wrote the new song and EP before powtic edda, so maybe the next one will fulfill your expectations
Saw them with shadow of intent. They were awesome and blake was very approachable and humble when i told him malphasian was one of the best metal songs i had ever heard!
God tier, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised if his hair was forced from his head because the ideas were pushing out too hard. If they can pull this off live, this blows Lorna out of the water, honestly.
Right... Lorna who?
They can and they did! Perfectly! Saw them in sf two weeks ago

Shitting at work after clocking in late 😂😂😂 relatable
Well put
I wouldn't mind the bass being slightly louder or more clear but that's a tiny tiny nitpick. Well said, they're going far.
Met Blake at the Black Opera tour . Nicest guy ever . They absolutely killed it live.

Most interesting band in all of Deathcore atm!
I saw this band in Chicago the other day. They were FIRE!
Blake is a genius. Also a producer on the new shadow of intent song. I'm so stoked to see he has a full band now. Can't believe he's playing guitar and doing vocals live. WILDLY TALENTED. Definitely want a drum playthrough as well.
At 2:25 when he said aguhguhguh I creamed
I can't unheard it dammit 😂😂😂😂

Really love their classical fusion/inspiration which keeps it interesting!
Wow I had no idea they were from Fallujah. That's wild, I swore it was just Synestia and DT melding considering the collab
seeing em live in Montreal with Shadow of Intent the 20th. Gonna be insanity
Sounds like the only con was the fact that he wrote the Poetic Edda (I agree)
ending reminded me of mirar
That's why your reviews are so relevant!! You listen really closely and don't get blindly hyped, even when it's stuff from your favorite bands.

I love the comparison to Muhammed.. definately on point in the context of their persona.
And I don't like the cons. They were so debatable, somehow based on non-existing standards..
This dude could scream the phone book while playing the rhythm of twinkle twinkle little star and it'd sound epic.
Man, I really hope he doesn't turn out to be a creep or something. If he can act right, he and DT have a bright future.
I agree with your cons though, it definitely felt less tightly constructed. It was awesome, and not every piece has to be the same as every other piece of course, but I felt like a tighter structure would have helped it hit harder.
reminds me of the LS Immortal. Finally, I like this kind of feel/Vibes.🔥✊🔥
Agree with all your cons, one extra pro I would say is that they didn't go for another brutal breakdown during the outro. I feel like that's done so much now that it kinda would have subtracted from the song. Would've like to see the more calm sections drawn out a bit more

the way i grinned when waking up to this
This is great, birb, if you havent already heard them the band 68’ their frontman is josh scogin. It’s like a garage punk noise rock group. Reminds me of every time I die but it’s not metalcore based. Pretty great though, scogin is that guy.
Did anyone catch that, the influences of darko us?? Its amazing
This is actually what really a real symphonic/blackened deathcore band should aim for.
Fully agree with you. Just too chaotic in my opinion, lacked a cohesive melody for me. Outro bit was sick. You can tell they have all the talent and skill, just gotta structure it properly.
Yeah man. These dudes…holy shit.
I think at least this song it felt more on the death metal side of deathcore I think it was a good song I think the same with the poetic edda ep which is hard to live up to that standard especially when it’s your first thing you put out that got a lot of traction but I think they may be going in the direction Shadow of Intent is going if so then it’ll be good whatever they put out
Saying 8.5 with a negative tone is crazy
gonna be honest i think creatively its a lot better than edda and just makes for a cleaner overall listen
song is fucking insane
That was straight up nocturne by the human abstract acoustics
Still waiting for Don to come back for a feature
everybody needs to check out ovids withering
Does a 4/4 waltz qualify as an aberrant waltz? I mean, obviously yes. Love it.
Classicalcore
I feel like if you played this for a classical musician like Tchaikovsky or Vivaldi, they would be proud of humanity.
This is amazing. I don't think your dog approved though. 6/10 dog rating, few ear twitches but not better than licking floor.
Anyone want to take a guess on a the meaning of the music video? lol
Kinda like if Trent Reznor tried to make a sequel to the Blair Witch.
I give it 10.10
These guys are the new Necrophagist
If you have plans on the 10th you better change them cause more is coming out then
New Necrophagist
2:30 🐷🐷🐷🐷
Blake is like the Devin Townsend of Deathcore. Guy needs to be nerfed
First!
Lorna Disfigurment what? Lmfao this is... yeah
