A mix of 80's driven AOR and melodic keyboard driven hard rock. "Into The Night" and "Around" are complete with big choruses and hooks aplenty. "Just One More Time" is a very touching ballad. "Come In From The Rain" and "Tell Me Why" are very easy going and accessible. All in all, an excellent AOR/melodic keyboard friendly CD.

Love the harmonies in "Come In From The Rain". "Around" is just a tad bit "poppy" for my taste, but it's a good song none the less. For me the big *sighhhh* song on this is "Just One More Time" *sniff* Nice production throughout.....I really enjoy this album.

The band has a definite future within the scene if they can afford to dedicate time to their craft. This debut album is one, that along with Outland, represents the old-school of AOR trying to make a go of things in a modern world. This is a really pleasant and easy going record with plenty of great harmonies and catchy songs.

I didn't care for this album. The vocals are weak. I did like the music on alot of the songs. They would be better off to dump the lead singer. Find someone with a good set of pipes. I think this band has potential.

Heard these guys have a bit of Danger Danger sound to them. Is that true, or is someone just misinformed? If they're at all like D2, I'm there.

Hey Melodicboy- Don't waste your time. If you want Danger Danger check out Jesse Strange. Get that album if you can find it.

Secret Smile has a new CD coming out in beginning 2005 produced by Arc Angel's Jeff Cannata and rumor has it Ted Poley of Danger-Danger fame may appear on the CD doing some background vocals...looking forward to it!

They should get Poley to do the lead vocals and dump T.J. Again, the music is very good but the vocals are weak.

I believe Jeff Cannata produced the very D2-esque Attraction album, GET UP N SHAKE. With him at the controls and Ted doing backing vocals, we may be on to something.

I don't think getting Poley to do lead vocals would happen, having him on backgrounds will help! I actually think the vocals are OK within the tracks. We will see what the new CD brings vocally. I noticed that Secret Smile was on tour with Dokken and LA Guns. Has anyone seen them live? PS: Attraction album is very cool and Cannata engineered it, i don't know about producing it!

I heard a lot of people say this was good. To match that I had to stand in a room with a lot of mirrors and mention that this CD is really not that good at all. It's decent, and a winner for fans of Norway, I suspect... so if you like the more keyboard luvvy duvvy lyrics sort of AOR, this is a good one for you. I, however, was left far from impressed. There was one song I liked, but can't recall it now. Okay AOR.

Also, they have been playing with Scandal, White Lion, Enuff z nuff, Dokken, LA Guns, Bret Michaels, Ted Poley etc...some of the big boys! Website also says Poley from D2 was in studio doing some tracks!!! very cool

**********************************Previo lanzamiento de la banda oriunda de Conneticut, cual habiendo escuchado “Hurry up and wait” solo me confirma que Secret Smile no solo son profesionales, sino que tienen buen gusto por la música. Este es un disco lleno de armonías al mejor estilo Def Leppard,las guitarras eléctricas son ablandadas un poco por los teclados,estos a su vez me recuerdan un poco a como suenan los keyboards de los Starship año 85’-87’,por ende al tratar de definir un estilo la

banda claramente se inclina por un hard rock- AOR. Si tienen oportunidad de obtener este album, cual recomiendo ciegamente, traten de ponerle atención al soft “Stop & go (follow your heart)”, garantizo placer al oírla. Quien dijo que el hard rock se concentra en Los Angeles? Acá hay otra prueba de que hay bandas en otras latitudes que reflejan el mejor sabor del HR como lo es Secret Smile.
