Italian sextet Secret Sphere play fast power metal with a strong emphasis on progressive elements, which makes it a bit hard to get into initially, but there's a lot to like here. There is a strong symphonic element, thanks to Antonio Agate's deft keyboard and piano work, while Roberto Messina's vocals are first rate. The highlight is "Recall Of The Valkyrie", but there is a lot more to discover over multiple listens on this impressive debut.
