Interviews STARE

THE SECRET interviewed by Sludgelord

January 29, 2013
1 min read

One of our favourite sludge metal blogs called Sludgelord conducted a nice interview with blackened hardcore / metal band called THE SECRET.

the secret

We started the band around 2003/2004 but we basically disbanded for few years after recording our first album. We got a more solid line-up around 2007/2008 so went to Sweden and recorded our second album, released by the Canadian label Goodfellow Records. Goodfellow stopped being active few years later so we recorded a demo and started looking for a new label and Southern Lord knocked at our door. We recorded “Solve et Coagula” with Kurt Ballou in 2010 and toured as much as possible. We recorded our fourth album “Agnus Dei” last summer, still with Kurt at Godcity Studio in Salem and it came out on Southern Lord few months ago.
