A Secret Revealed is a German post-metal band from Würzburg .
history
The band was founded in early 2012 in Würzburg, Franconia. All former members were able to gather various musical experiences in different bands before the band was founded. With A Secret Revealed they wanted to do justice to the personal ideas of an atmospheric, melancholic and melodic music mix - a mix that should work both on record and live. In the same year the band recorded their debut EP Lay My Memories to Rest together with Nikita Kamprad from Der Weg einer Freiheit , former guitarist for Fuck Your Shadow From Behind . Lay My Memories to Rest was self-published in February 2012 and received mostly positive reviews. The CD is distributed via Bandcamp and when the band performs.
After the first regional and national appearances were played, there were first changes in the line-up in 2013 when Jakob Kress (drums) was replaced by Alexander Welzel. In 2014 he and Kai Pfeiffer (vocals) also left the band and were replaced by Tilman Witschel (drums) and Paul Motz (vocals). The band then continued to write songs for a first album, The Bleakness . The album was again produced in cooperation with Nikita Kamprad and distributed by the Bastardized Recordings label , from which the band was signed in 2015. At the end of 2016, singer Paul Motz left the band for personal reasons. Michael Heim (Ex- Necrotted / Ex-Guiding-Light-Demise) then took over the post of singer. The band has been writing new songs for a second album since February 2017. On July 7, 2017, the first single release including video with Michael Heim on the vocals was presented exclusively via the online magazine metal.de . The sound is groundbreaking for the band's new songs and is consistently well received by the audience.
In September 2018 the band split from Bastardized Recordings and announced the signing with Lifeforce Records . A new album entitled Sacrifices was announced on 01/25/2019.
