\"It\'s been very hard to take this decision but we think that this is the only way to go on with The Secret. The main reason behind this is due to the long distance between them and the rest of the band that didn\'t allow us to practice as much as we needed. Moreover after the Hellfest fiasco we went through a pretty long unproductive period. Tension grew and some personal issues forced us to cancel most of our shows and we even considered breaking up.\"

New drummer Simone Pellegrini and bassist Federico Lodolo have subsequently joined the band as replacements. The Secret are now working on new material for their next Goodfellow Records release.
