Telling Secrets delivers a raw emotion in new single “Fall Behind”

Telling Secrets was formed during the pandemic in 2021 and recently released their latest single, “Fall Behind.” The song is a modern rock track with emo influences, which means it has a lot of intense and emotional music with thunderous drums, guitars, and atmospheric synths that add a spooky quality to the sound.

The band’s founder, Vik Kovacs, put a lot of effort and emotion into the track, creating a powerful and moving piece of music. “Fall Behind” has gone through many changes, with different versions and recordings, making it an exceptional work. Kovacs believes it is one of his best lyrical works so far.

This single is an important milestone for the band, showing their growth and commitment to pushing musical boundaries. Telling Secrets plans to release a full-length album in early 2024, which promises to be a fantastic experience for both the eyes and ears. The album will feature tracks like ‘Bad Dreams,’ ‘Lullaby,’ and ‘Fragile,’ showcasing the band’s amazing talents.

Telling Secrets has collaborated with Industrial Films, known for their work with other famous bands like Cradle of Filth, Black Veil Brides, and 3TEETH, to create a music video for “Fall Behind.” The band has also worked with Rachel Blum, who has worked with famous artists like Christina Aguilera, Hozier, and SZA, to add a layer of brilliance to the music with her vocal engineering.

The single “Fall Behind” is a glimpse into Telling Secrets’ future, and their commitment to producing high-quality music is evident in the song’s final, polished form.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
