Distant releases ‘Tyrannotophia Redux’ – the re-imagined, re-recorded version of 2019’s seminal ‘Tyrannotophia’ – out today via Unique Leader Records
Since their formation in 2014, Distant has risen to prominence with landmark releases like Tyrannotophia (2019), the Aeons of Oblivion trilogy (2021), and Heritage (2023), delivering crushing brutality with a unique blend of dissonant deathcore, brutal death metal, and beatdown. Now, the quartet are giving fans Tyrannotophia Redux: a completely re-imagined, re-recorded, reinforced Tyrannotophia. Out today (August 15th) via Unique Leader Records, purchase and stream the definitive version of this seminal album via: https://orcd.co/tyrannotophiaredux
Distant comments: “We’re beyond stoked to finally announce ‘Tyrannotophia Redux’ — a full re-imagining of our 2019 record ‘Tyrannotophia’. This isn’t just a re-master — we went all in.
“We re-recorded all the vocals from scratch, reworked a few of the guest spots, and gave the entire album a brand new mix and master by Simone Pietroforte to bring the production up to the same punishing level as our latest releases.
“The ‘Redux’ features some crushing new and returning guest vocal performances:
“‘Zeroten’ now features Harry Davies of Guilt and Ben Mason of Bound in Fear
“‘Abhorrence’ features Josh Davies of Ingested
“‘Heirs of Torment’ features Lukas Nikolai of Mental Cruelty
”Tyrannotophia’ was a turning point for us when it first dropped, and we wanted to give it the treatment it deserves with the sound we’ve built over the years since. Same lore, same brutality — but bigger, heavier, and more refined.”
