Secretpath are a band from Italy that plays a melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2019 ep "Dominatio Tempestasis" which was released by Masked Dead Records.
A very epic synth orientated into starts off the ep along with some symphonic elements before going into a heavier direction. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic style as well as adding in some elements of neo-classical and all of the instruments sound very powerful.
Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of blast beats. Clean vocals can also be heard at times along with the riffs also adding in a great amount of melody and throughout the recording you can also hear a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Water sounds can also be heard briefly along with one track also adding in acoustic guitars and throat singing. At times the clean vocals also get very operatic sounding and some of the sections of the music also adds in death metal growls, progressive and groove metal influences. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are a concept album based upon a seaman fighting against the ocean.
In my opinion Secretpath are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Crystal Ice" and "Storm of Revenge". 8 out of 10.
