VESTIGE Unveil Total Package on First Single!


VESTIGE formed during an intense period of individual turmoil. But after vocalist and guitarist ThƩodore Rondeau and his old Naraka bandmates Pierre-AndrƩ Krauzer (bassist) and Quentin Regnault (drums) bonded with guitarist Thomas Petit over a shared love for metal innovators like Alcest and Deftones, together, the four-piece embarked on their own journey toward a modern vision of metal that's both cathartic and crushing.


Last year, Vestige achieved their first milestone by signing with Season of Mist, even though they had yet to release any music. This year, the band have played several shows in their native France, including a recent date with Celeste. Now, people all over the world can hear the first glimmer of their debut album, Janis, with lead single "Deviens la Nuit".


"'Deviens La Nuit' catalyzes everything that Vestige represents in a single piece of music", Rondeau says. "Between deep melancholy and the violence of realization, it marks the beginning of the journey that is Janis".

Vestige draw inspiration from modern metal innovators like Alcest and Deftones, but "Deviens la Nuit" encapsulates all the individual pieces that make this band unique. Within the span of 5 minutes, they shift seamlessly from chugging riffs and tortured growls to melodic shoegaze and atmospheric post-metal before closing with a doomy and dissonant, head-banging breakdown. It's here, within this dark night of the soul, that they bring us to the edge of despair so that we can feel what it's like to be born anew.


"Cathartic, gentle, violent but enveloping, 'Deviens La Nuit' is the transformation and realization of the condition in which Theodore composed it", Vestige says. "We hope that this song will invite you to experience this introspective journey with us".
