Tropes that apply to All That Remains:
- Badass Creed / Badass Boast: The Air That I Breathe, Some of the People, All of the Time and others.
- Jerk Ass: Phil has gained a reputation over the years for being extremely rude and arrogant.
- Lighter and Softer: 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.
- Melodic Death Metal
- Metalcore
- Metal Scream: Comes in three varieties: The standard Metalcore shouted scream, the deep gravely Death Growl, and the high pitched Black Metal screech. The song The Weak Willed features all of them.
- Mohs Scale of Rock and Metal Hardness: Usually in the 8-9 range.
- Not Christian Rock: Some songs (like Not Alone, Faithless, and Become The Catalyst) have seemingly Christian themes, but they aren't a Christian band, and Phil has gone on record that he is in fact an atheist
- Post Grunge: A lot of their newer songs carry strong elements of this.
- Soprano and Gravel: Done by the same vocalist, no less.
- Signature Song: "Two Weeks" or "This Calling"
- True Companions: A common theme in their songs, which often deal with themes of brotherhood.
- Video Full Of Film Clips: The music video for their song "This Calling" was featured as the lead song for Saw III's soundtrack, and incorporated (while still partially censored) the opening death scene from the film.
- You Are Not Alone: Not Alone, obviously.
