Secret Rule - neue Single "Just A Sacrifice"
Rockshots Records and Secret Rule are thrilled to announce the release of the band's brand new single called "Just A Sacrifice" available on all digital platforms starting today May 2nd, 2025.
The track offers the first glimpse into the band's highly anticipated tenth studio album, due for release later this year.
"Just A Sacrifice" is a powerful anthem about the cost of staying true to oneself in a world that demands conformity. Blending heavy guitars, intense vocals and a bold, wide-open chorus, the song captures both the emotional toll and the inner strength that come with resisting societal pressure. “This song is about the price we pay for thinking freely, speaking our truth and refusing to follow the crowd,” the band comments. “It’s deeply personal but also a quiet political statement.”
In recent weeks, Secret Rule completed an intense 15-date European tour alongside Temperance and Induction showcasing their renewed energy and connection with audiences across the continent. The band is now preparing to take part in prestigious summer festivals including Masters of Rock (Czech Republic), Rock Imperium Festival (Spain) and Laurus Nobilis (Portugal).
Entering 2025 with a refreshed lineup and a renewed artistic vision, Secret Rule are ready to push their sound even further. The upcoming album promises a dynamic and immersive experience fusing the cinematic edge of Within Temptation’s recent work with the raw energy of Falling In Reverse.
"Just A Sacrifice" marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Secret Rule, one built on resilience, individuality and a sound more powerful than ever.
