Our Take

The latest offering from Italian prog-rockers Soul Secret, "Babel", is a mind-bending journey through the psychedelic world of intricate time signatures and mesmerizing melodies. Packed with more twists and turns than a drunk driver on a rollercoaster, this album is sure to leave listeners scratching their heads in confusion, but also nodding along in awe.

From the frenetic energy of opener "Tower of Babel" to the haunting beauty of "The White Stair", Soul Secret proves that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of progressive rock. Guitarist Antonio Vittozzi's shredding solos are as impressive as ever, while vocalist Lino Di Pietrantonio's soaring vocals will send chills down your spine.

The standout track on the album has to be "The Black Sheep", a sprawling epic that spans over ten minutes and takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. The dynamic shifts and intricate arrangements showcase Soul Secret's technical proficiency and songwriting prowess.

However, "Babel" is not without its flaws. Some tracks meander a bit too much, losing the listener's interest along the way. And at times, the production can feel a bit muddy, obscuring the band's intricate playing.

Overall, Soul Secret's "Babel" is a bold and ambitious album that will appeal to fans of complex, challenging music. While it may not be a perfect album, it is certainly a captivating one that showcases the band's unique blend of technical skill and emotional depth.
