Exclusive Premiere: Secrets of the Moon, “No More Colours”

Maybe you like black metal… or maybe you don’t. Either way, you’ve probably grown tired of the tropes that have come to define the genre over the past, oh, nearly 30 years now.

Secrets of the Moon are the black metal band for you, then. Over the course of five full-lengths and myriad EPs and splits spanning a 20-year career, the German band has continually pushed the boundaries of what’s considered black metal. Their newest, Sun, continues in that vein. Listen to the melancholic acoustic intro, the thumping, almost tribal rhythms and sG’s shouted and whispered vocals on “No More Colours,” streaming below, and you’ll hear exactly what it is we appreciate so much about this band.

Sun comes out on December 4th via Prophecy Recordings and can be pre-ordered here.
