Sounds like: Metal
The Creatures In Secret is a young upstart Metal band from Knoxville, Tennessee looking to make their mark on the Metal world with their recent full length album "The Gathering". The album still has a lot of buzz to it, so let's jump in and see what it's all about. "Where To Begin" kicks the EP off with a two minute thrasher of a track that features some clean melodic singing as well as crushing breakdowns. "A Tip In Parenting" unleashes hell on the listener with a devastating breakdown early in the track before exploding into a blistering Metal sound that brings to mind Miss May I. It's a catchy, heavy track that'll get you singing along and moshing right away. "Above The Broken" has an early As I Lay Dying influence to it as it annihilates the listener with a raw, emotional Metal sound that any bigger Metal band would be happy to have. "Uninvited (Christmas Party)" brings to mind early Bring Me The Horizon as it has that edge to it. When the clean vocals kick in, they take it to an even higher level and make it a monster of a track. "Spine Full Of Knives" will get the live floor moving as its bouncy right from the get go. The clean vocals kick in right away before giving away to a more August Burns Red vibe. It's a track that has an infectious chorus as well as breakdowns galore. Near the end of the track is pure chaos before heading back into the ultra catchy chorus. Listen to this track right now! "Gather the Misfit Kids" has a near Post Hardcore opening before transitioning into a Metalcore sound that is so destructive that it wouldn't be surprising if some speakers blew out due to the intensity of the breakdowns. "Texas Red" has a bit more melody than the previous tracks but by no means is it soft. It's still just as jaded and tough as Negan's Lucille. Just one listen will make you a believer in that the band know how to make infectiously melodic, brutal tracks. "Everybody Gets One" immediately kicks into high gear. The track features a driving force of carnage that doesn't stop until it hits its four minute end time. "Breathing" is a mind blower of a track. It's one of those Metal track that just takes the entire album to a whole new level. The track has everything going for it and is simply one of the best tracks on the album. The closer "Me Myself And I" summarizes everything that the band encompass: Brutality, Melody and Raw Emotion. Get your hands on this album now and you'll be adding them to your daily Metal rotation guaranteed.
Verdict:
Metal fans would be making a mistake if they don't check out this full length from The Creatures In Secret.
