Nuclear Blast Records is proud to welcome Missouri’s burgeoning extreme metal wrecking crew, Disembodied Tyrant, to the label’s thriving roster. With one of the most distinct new sounds in heavy music, the volatile four-piece have already amassed a global cult following with their intense amalgam of blackened deathcore and progressive symphonic metal.
In the span of only a few short years, Disembodied Tyrant has released a handful of singles and an EP that have garnered millions of streams, while performing a mind-blowing set at New England Metal & Hardcore Festival and North American tour with Fleshgod Apocalypse and Shadow Of Intent that have sparked a firestorm of anticipation for what’s next for the band.
Commenting on the signing to Nuclear Blast, founding songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Blake Mullens says: “It’s an honor to be joining the Nuclear Blast roster, alongside some of my all time favorite bands/artists. Disembodied Tyrant has only ever been supported by myself internally, and to now have an entire team behind us is a dream come true, I’m very eager for what the future holds!”
Nuclear Blast America’s label manager and head of A&R, Tommy Jones adds: “I’ve never signed an artist that never played a show live, until Disembodied Tyrant. I just felt so solid on their music and their team, that I rolled the dice. I saw the band’s 8th show ever at New England Metal and Hardcore Fest while they were supporting Fleshgod Apocalypse. After the performance, I hugged Blake and said in his ear ‘thank you for confirming my decision’. The world is not ready for the insanity of Disembodied Tyrant, but you don’t have a choice. It’s about to get disgusting.”
Along with the signing announcement, comes the brand new single “8.6 Blackout”; an unrelenting track of raging chaos.
Mullens says of the song: “This song was one of those rarities where the vision stayed consistent throughout the entire process, it became exactly what I imaged it would from day one. This is a huge pivot thematically from the previous material, coupled with the video I think it’s quite the statement.”

Disembodied Tyrant merges symphonic grandeur with crushing deathcore to create a cinematic, immersive experience. An unrelenting blend of brutality and orchestral depth, layered with apocalyptic imagery and themes of corruption, reckoning, and self-deification. With thunderous riffs, haunting melodies, and thought-provoking lyricism, Disembodied Tyrant is a force of pure, calculated chaos.
