Soul Secret is an Italian progressive metal band that formed in 2004.

Reception

Musicwaves.fr described Flowing Portraits as "a pivotal album"[1] even if just their debut album, while Dprp.net wrote that the highlight of the album is the last song, the epic called Tears Of Kalliroe, which features "an amazing orchestral overture, followed by sheer brilliant prog metal passages".[2] Closer To Daylight, the band's second album, appeared in the Progwereld Top 10 in January 2012. Allaroundmetal.com wrote that the album "passed with flying colours" and scored the album 5 out of 5.[3] Of the band's latest album, a concept album titled 4, Progmetalzone.com wrote that the album is full of ambitious, technically accomplished and poignant material that showcases the strength of each and every single musician in the band, as well as the band’s cohesiveness as a unit, as they have finally found a stable line-up after a few past changes.[4]
