Vestiges - The Descent Of Man 2010

Vestiges, a narrative about the relationship between man and nature in shape of black-metal/ hardcore riffs. In 2010 Vestiges released their debut full-length The Descent Of Man - the creation, the evolution, and the eventual annihilation of mankind. Highly Recommended!

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.

For man has sown contempt, man shall reap a bitter end.

Let our bodies replenish this earth, for the true color of man has shown!
