Vestigial are a solo project from Italy that plays a mixture of dark ambient, drone and ritual and this is a review of his 2025 album "Descending Vastness" which was released by Cyclic Law.
Dark soundscapes and spoken words start off the album while the synths also bring in elements of dark ambient. Drones are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and at times the music gets very ritualistic soiunding.
All of the songs also sound very different from each other while also mixing in a good amount of electronic sounds at times. A lot of the music also sticks to more of an instrumental direction and some of the music also brings in more of an apocalyptic atmosphere, one song also adds in a brief use of female vocals.
Vestigial plays a musical style that takes dark ambient, drone and ritual and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark while the song themes focus on the deepest shadows of self and structure.
In my opinion Vestigial are a very great sounding mixture of dark ambient, drone and ritual and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Ascent" "Vastness" and "Do you Want To hear The Earth Cry?". 8 out of 10.
