Talking Heads' most seminal release. Released in 1980, this album draws influence from Nigerian musician Fela Kuti and sees the band members experimenting with African polyrhythms, funk, and electronics. They recorded instrumental tracks as a series of looping grooves, which had never been done before.

Remain in Light was critically acclaimed. Critics praised its sonic experimentation, blending of different genres, and rhythmic innovations. The album peaked at number 19 on the US Billboard 200 and 21 on the UK album charts. The album spawned the single Once in a Lifetime, one of Talking Heads' most famous songs.

Get the Remain in Light mug.
A metalcore band from Western Massachusetts. They put on a great show and have some sick guitar and screaming. They are truly epic.
Person 1: Have you ever heard All That Remains?
Person 2: No..who are they?
Person 1: A sick metalcore band *plays "This Calling"*
Person 2: Holy crap.

Get the All That Remains mug.
A metal/metalcore band formed in the late 90's in Massachusetts. Once unknown to the mainstream population, the band enjoyed a one-song fanbase of college students and frat kids who otherwise listen to Dave Matthews Band and/or Soulja Boy, via an appearance in the game Guitar Hero II. Per usual Guitar Queero standards, people instantly became "fans" while never listening to more than a single song by the band.
-Hey, what are you listening to?
-All That Remains.
-Oh cool! I like them!
-Really? You think "This Calling" is the best song off their newest album?
-Well I haven't heard it, but I like "Six"!

A Metalcore/Melodic Death Metal band. Basically what this means is they play Melodic Death Metal with metalcore styled clean vocals and breakdowns. Pretty good in their own right.

They used to be the greatest Heavy Metal band of all time. Then they made an "alternative rock"/"hard rock" album and started marketing towards the bigger demographic. SELLOUTS!
Phil Lanbonte: YOU THINK THAT THIS WILL CHANGE US!!! OUR ROOTS ARE DEEPER THAN THAT!!
Phil Lanbonte: nvm i want more money, time to sell out
Phil Lanbonte: Please vote for All That Remains in this alternative rock poll, we need more money
Phil Lanbonte: *Endlessly markets and promotes their new album like never before on social media*
