Defy The Tyrants' Socials
Defy The Tyrants Announce New Vocalist, Tom Ruisi, and Future Sonic Shift!
Southern California and San Diego’s very own Defy The Tyrants have leveled up and are stoked to unleash their new singer: Tom Ruisi, a beast of a vocalist, creator, and multi-instrumentalist ready to drag the band into its heaviest era since the dawn of the bands existence.
With gutturals that shake the earth and cleans that cut straight through the soul, Tom Ruisi brings the kind of presence that doesn’t just join a band, it changes it forever. His fire and creativity are locked and loaded to reshape the very DNA of Defy The Tyrants, pushing the sound darker, heavier, and more unapologetically savage than ever.
“This isn’t just a lineup change,” the band declares. “We’ve always been about pushing boundaries, and with our new frontman, Defy The Tyrants is about to hit harder than ever before.”

The band is already gearing up to unleash this new energy both on stage and in the studio. Fans can expect shows and releases that are more aggressive, more atmospheric, and more true to the raw power that defines Defy The Tyrants to the core. Defy The Tyrants is about to hit harder than ever before.

The storm is brewing and new music is on the way, so get ready to crank to 11. Tom Ruisi has already ripped through the booth and tracked vocals for his debut Defy The Tyrants single. Details will surface soon, but make no mistake… this beast is coming for you.
Throw down with us in welcoming Tom Ruisi to the Defy The Tyrants family. The future isn’t just heavier… the future is HERE, it’s about to hit hard, and Defy The Tyrants is about to crush it!
