Secrets Release New Album 'Searching For The Things We Don't Wish To Find' via SBG Records ​   

American metalcore powerhouse SECRETS have officially released their highly anticipated new album, Searching For The Things We Don't Wish To Find, available now via SBG Records.

 

The new album marks another evolution for a band that has spent more than a decade turning deeply personal experiences into cathartic, emotionally charged music. At the center of the release is the focus track “Split Tongue,” a hard-hitting showcase of everything that has made SECRETS a standout force in the metalcore scene.

 

"SEARCHING FOR THE THINGS WE DON’T WISH TO FIND is SECRETS at our most vulnerable, aggressive, and honest. We dug into the things people tend to bury - the thoughts, memories, and emotions we’d rather avoid - and turned them into something we’re incredibly proud of. We’ve lived with these songs for a long time, and we’re ready for them to finally belong to everyone," shares Wade Walters.

 

With Searching For The Things We Don't Wish To Find, SECRETS continue to explore the darker corners of the human experience while delivering a record built around resilience, confrontation, and the search for meaning in places we might rather leave untouched.

 

“Split Tongue” serves as a powerful entry point into the album, pairing the band's signature dynamic songwriting with an unfiltered emotional intensity. The track captures the tension at the heart of SECRETS’ music: the collision between vulnerability and aggression, despair and perseverance, darkness and hope.

SECRETS is a post-hardcore band from Orange County, CA, delivering a hard-hitting blend of crushing breakdowns, soaring melodies, and emotionally raw lyrics. Since their 2010 debut, the band has released multiple acclaimed albums—including The Ascent (2012 that debuted at #3 on Billboard Heatseekers / #185 on Billboard 200), Fragile Figures (2013 that reached #59 on Billboard 200), Secrets (2018) and their heaviest and most personal effort to date, The Collapse (2022). Their music dives deep into themes of mental health, addiction, and perseverance, building a powerful connection with fans worldwide.

 

Over the past decade, SECRETS has toured across the globe alongside The Devil Wears Prada, The Amity Affliction, Sleeping With Sirens, Asking Alexandria, Memphis May Fire, and more. SECRETS remain one of post-hardcore’s most authentic voices—turning pain into power and connection.

Secrets Share New Single "Despair"

SECRETS have unleashed their first new music since 2022 with the new single "Despair." Listen Below. 

It's all about the electronic flourishes, gnarly riffery, and screams that sound as thought they crawled headlong from the bowels of hell. The track will kick your ass from start to finish.

Not only does the new single mark a new era of aggression for the band but is also a rebirth of sorts, as guitarist/clean vocalist Richard Rogers has stepped away from the band and has given his blessing for the band to carry on with a new lineup. Long-running members, vocalist Wade Walters and guitarist Connor Branigan, are now joined by guitarist/clean vocalist David Baqi in this rebirth of these California metalcore stalwarts. 

"Despair" was produced by Taylor Larson (Asking Alexandria, Periphery, Veil Of Maya, Within Temptatio.), who will also oversee the band's upcoming full-length album. Set to be recorded this summer, the new album promises to be the band's most pulverizing yet. You read it here first. 

But for now, it's time to immerse yourself in "Despair."

SECRETS are currently touring with Colorblind, Glasslands, and Unwell. Once the tour wraps, the band will then spend June aneJuly supporting Eyes Set To Kill. Expect a wealth more touring from the band as they unveil more new music in the coming months. 

Since their formation over a decade ago, California-based metalcore band SECRETS have been a giant within and beyond their genre. Relentless drive and progressive creativity have solidified the band's place in their scene's development and impact on the masses.
 
After being signed to Velocity Records in 2011, SECRETS released their debut full-length album, The Ascent, in January 2012. The record debuted at #3 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and became the first release from the first incarnation of Velocity Records to appear on the Billboard Top 200, debuting at #185.
 
 Worldwide touring and lineup changes helped refine the band and their music, leading to their second album, Fragile Figures, in 2013. The album was a success, selling over 10,000 copies in the first month and charting at #59 on the Billboard 200 charts. SECRETS released their third studio album, Everything That Got Us Here, in January 2015, seeing the album hit #11 on the Hard Rock Albums charts and #20 on the Independent Albums charts.

Following yet another success with their fourth album, the self-titled Secrets in 2018, the band continued to create, perform, and push the boundaries of their music and the genre. 2022 saw the release of their fifth album, The Collapse via their new partnership with their initial label, Velocity Records, who at the time had recently relaunched.
