Secrecy: Good name for a punk band! It calls to mind the Germs’ “What We Do Is Secret,” as well as the general sense of a hidden underground world that regards outsiders with suspicion. London’s appropriately mysterious Secrecy have a big, propulsive sound \u2014 coarse hardcore vocals, reverb-drenched guitar jangle, booming drums. They bring a sense of frenetic darkness that recalls the moment that goth first emerged out of punk. There’s at least a bit of Stone Roses glimmer in there, too.<\/p>\n
Secrecy’s debut EP Winter In A&E comes out next month, and it was produced by High Vis members Edward “Ski” Harper and Rob Hammeren. I definitely hear a bit of High Vis in their new song “Knife In My Dreams,” an enveloping rocker with atmosphere for days. Great opening line, too: “This is how I sleep, with a fist in my mouth and a knife in my dreams.” Check it out below.<\/p>\n

01 “Knife In My Dreams”
