32!Tropes that apply to All That Remains:
33* AscendedExtra: Jason Richardson was an emergency live-fill in after Oli Herbert's death who wound up being inducted as a full member.
34* BadassCreed: "The Air That I Breathe", "Some of the People, All of the Time" and others.
35* CoverVersion: Did this with Music/GarthBrooks' "The Thunder Rolls".
36* {{Determinator}}: Quite possibly the most common theme of their songs.
37* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: ''Behind Silence and Solitude'' was fairly straightforward MelodicDeathMetal with some minor core elements that, among other things, completely lacked clean vocals.
38* GenreShift: ''A War You Cannot Win'' more or less completely eliminated most of the metalcore elements and changed their genre to TraditionalHeavyMetal.
39** ''Victim Of The New Disease'', on the other hand, brought back the metalcore sound.
40* IAmTheBand: Phil Labonte is the only remaining founding member after the death of Oli Herbert.
41* JerkAss: Phil has gained a reputation over the years for being extremely rude and arrogant.
42* LighterAndSofter:
43** While the lyrical themes haven't experienced this, the actual music has. For better or worse, most songs on the albums after ''The Fall of Ideals'' are a lot softer and poppier.
44** ''...For We Are Many'' was a bit DarkerAndEdgier than ''Overcome'', and went back somewhat to the style of ''The Fall of Ideals'', but the very next album they released what may be their lightest album yet.
45*** Their seventh full-length release ''The Order of Things'' is even ''lighter'' than ''A War You Cannot Win'', featuring almost entirely clean vocals and continuing in the radio-friendly direction established by its predecessor.
46* MelodicDeathMetal: At first. They later became a metalcore band, but kept heavy Melodeath influences, being one of the main "Melodic Metalcore" bands. Lately, though, they've dropped almost all of their Melodeath.
47* {{Metalcore}}: Along with Music/KillswitchEngage, Music/ShadowsFall, Music/AsILayDying, Music/AvengedSevenfold, Bleeding Through, and Atreyu, they were a TropeCodifier for melodic metalcore and one of the main figureheads of the first wave.
48* MetalScream: Comes in three varieties: The standard Metalcore shouted scream, the deep gravely DeathGrowl, and the high pitched BlackMetal screech. The song "The Weak Willed" features all of them.
49* NewSoundAlbum: ''This Darkened Heart'' saw them go from straight melodic death metal to melodeath-influenced metalcore. ''A War You Cannot Win'' switched the band to a hard-rock sound that they would stick with for the next two albums before returning to metalcore with ''Victim of the New Disease''.
50* OlderThanTheyLook: Phil looks like he's in his mid-to-late twenties, but he's actually 43.
51* RatedMForManly: They tend to put forward an overtly masculine front, except for the occasional ballad.
52%%* SopranoAndGravel: Done by the same vocalist, no less.
53* TrueCompanions: A common theme in their songs, which often deal with themes of brotherhood.
54* VideoFullOfFilmClips: The music video for their song "This Calling" was featured as the lead song for ''Film/SawIII'''s soundtrack, and incorporated (while still partially censored) the opening death scene from the film.
55%%* YouAreNotAlone: "Not Alone", obviously.
