Vestiges - The Descent of Man (2010)

"Vestiges formed in January of 2010 as a two-piece band. Influenced by hardcore, black metal, crust, screamo, and post-rock, the band set out to incorporate elements of each genre to articulate their message both musically and lyrically. A third member was added to the band shortly before entering the studio to record The Descent Of Man. The band plans to release two more albums, an EP and a LP, in order to complete their narrative. The band and a filmmaker are currently in the process of producing a film to visually capture the theme of The Descent Of Man.

The Descent Of Man follows the creation, the evolution, and the eventual annihilation of mankind. Today, we find ourselves hoping to reverse the damage that we have done and struggling to sustain what little earth we have yet to rape repeatedly. We validate this existence with stories that justify our behavior and our role in the natural world. The promise of salvation in a land we have yet to see has clouded our judgment in a land that is right before our eyes. Industrialization, militarization, overpopulation, theism, specieism, and nihilism are regarded as evolution and progress. Our greed and ignorance have been celebrated and our past has been forgotten. We were meant to be a part of nature. We were not meant to conquer nature. We were given life and we have done everything in our power to bring death upon everything in our path, including ourselves. There will be horrifying consequences for what we have done."

Santa Sangre- Feast for the New Gods

 Holy Shit, Nostalgia! This is a metalcore more on the hardcore side from Buffalo, NY. Members when on to form The Promise who arent nearly as good. Its hard to describe this bands sound, somewhere between Martyr a.d. and a down tuned until the end? idk.

the bonus track is pretty hilarious as well. Do bands still to hidden tracks at the ends of cds anymore ?

Hardcore, Grind and mosh all mixed together to get you pissed as shit.

Its hard to imagine that this CD was released in 2004 on Victory and did pretty well and they are no where to be found. The play a few local Toledo shows and I saw them about 2 years ago in Pittsburgh but without nate on vocals. Whatever, this CD is HEEAAVVVYYYY.
