Blind Secrecy is a Finnish, South Karelian band, who came together in 2006. They released some demoes over the next few years but then took a break, returning in 2012 with the mini-album ‘Arise’. They are now back with a four song EP, and one has to wonder just how long it is going to be until they release a proper full-length album as this is really very good indeed. Punchy polished power metal, this has much in common with the German scene in particular, and is sure to gain them a lot of interest. In fact, the only thing that is really at fault here is that it is too damn short! It has certainly piqued my interest and I am going to be keeping my eyes out for more from Blind Secrecy as if this EP is anything to go by then the album will be quite something. Think Iced Earth with some elements of Kreator and possibly Sonata Artica and you won’t be far away. For more details visit www.blindsecrecy.org
