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 "Wielder of the Plague", to celebrate the game's first DLC, The Awakened King.

An instrumental track, the tone of "Spire of the Hellspawn" is very dark and ominous, blending elements of classical guitar and film scores with metal influences. The song features intricate fingerpicking, evoking a sense of dread and tension, which builds as the melody progresses. The classical guitar showcases Heafy's technical skill, and the piece is reflective of his ability to fuse genres seamlessly, particularly classical and heavy metal.

The haunting melody and intense playing convey a sense of foreboding, conjuring imagery of dark, mystical landscapes -- hence the title "Spire of the Hellspawn." The piece likely represents Heafy's exploration of his roots as both a metal guitarist and a lover of classical music. It's a departure from the full-band sound of Trivium, focusing on the acoustic, nuanced side of Heafy's musicianship.
