Trivium vocalist and guitarist Matt Heafy has written and recorded a brand-new song, “Spire of the Hellspawn”, in support of Gunfire Games and Arc Games’ best-selling survival shooter, REMNANT II.
The song has been released in celebration of the game’s third and final DLC, The Dark Horizon, and recent one-year anniversary. This is the second song dropped by Heafy in support of REMNANT II, as he first released the song, “Wielders of the Plague“, to celebrate the game’s first DLC, The Awakened King.
Check out the new song “Spire of the Hellspawn” below.
It was an honour and a privilege to have played a part in the release of REMNANT II last year,” said Matt Heafy, Trivium vocalist and guitarist. “To be invited back to do it again for the third and final piece of DLC is unreal.
The world that the team at Gunfire Games have created is absolutely incredible, so the opportunity to create another piece of music inspired by their work was impossible for me to turn down. I can’t wait for you to hear what I’ve been working on.”
The release of “Spire of the Hellspawn” comes at a good time as Trivium gears up for a North America, UK and Europe tour starting in Early 2025. Check out tour dates to see if Trivium is playing in a city near you: https://www.trivium.org/tour.
