My Dark Secret Transcendence are a solo project from Thailand that plays a depressive mixture of post black metal and blackgaze and this is a review of their 2024 album "Teamoumenon" which was released by Dark Oracle Records.
Clean playing and synths start off the album before going into more of a fast, raw and melodic direction which also adds in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Clear singing is also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording along with the songs also mixing in elements of post rock and shoegaze.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style and the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
All of the drum beats are programmed along with the harsher vocals being mostly high pitched depressive black metal screams when they are introduced into the music as well as a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of female vocals, spoken word parts can also be heard on a few songs The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover depression and melancholy themes.
In my opinion my Dark Secret Transcendence is a very great sounding depressive mixture of post black metal and blackgaze and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I Don't Want To Come Back Anymore" "Emptiness IS not The End" and "Breathless". 8 out of 10.
