Review

Secrets of Nature is album #8 from Germany's Coronatus and this band just systematically cranks out a new album every couple of years. Nightwish-style operatic/symphonic metal is, as it has been, the name of the game and they even bring in some male singing à la Marko Hietala. Coronatus has always been searching for a signature song and once again fails to come up with one. "Howling Wind" which opens Secrets of Nature, is as fine a symphonic anthem as the band has written but it is so evocative of Nightwish that is almost sounds like a cover. The remainder of Secrets of Nature is a typical Coronatus album and that means solid, unspectacular symphonic metal.
