Essentially Pop had the chance to chat with bassist\/vocalist Blair Layt last year about the expectations and goals of their latest album release, Secrets, which you can check out <a href=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2016\/05\/interview-with-a-breach-of-silence-bassistvocalist-blair-layt\/\">here<\/a>. \u00a0Blair relays some great commentary about the album making process and all the people involved to help make it happen. With the release of the new album the band has also planned Australian tour dates which eventually will be followed by tour dates in the United States.<\/p>\n<div>Secrets was produced by well known metal producer Fredrik Nordstrom (Bring Me The Horizon, Arch Enemy, In Flames) and was mixed by Henrik Udd at Studio Fredman in Sweden. A Breach Of Silence&#8217;s last studio album, The Darkest Road, debuted on the iTunes metal chart in Australia at #1 and #20 on AIRA&#8217;s 100% Independent chart as well as being dubbed Best of 2014 by dozens of music blogs and media publications so it is no wonder that we have been looking forward to hearing the new material on Secrets.<\/div>\n<div>A Breach Of Silence has released two music videos so far pertaining to their new album release of Secrets with the first one being released in November called &#8216;Falling Away&#8217;. &#8220;<em>We did this clip because there is a huge value gap for artists and labels in the music industry right now and it needs to be fixed\u201d<\/em>\u00a0states guitarist\u00a0<strong>Mat Cosgrove<\/strong>.<em><em>\u00a0\u201cBest-case scenario, a 12-song album needs to be streamed about 125 times (1,500 total streams) on a subscription-based plan to equal the sale of an album. Our label is fully transparent with us, we see every transaction pertaining to our catalog and we get paid. The problem is that the revenue generated by free, advertising-based business models is fractions of that received from subscription models. If musicians aren\u2019t fairly compensated for their music, then they eventually stop being musicians and are forced to choose other professions that are more profitable.\u201d<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eQtl3zt4lkU?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>Vocalist\u00a0<strong>Rhys Flannery<\/strong>\u00a0continues,\u00a0<em>\u201cA subscription on Spotify (for example) is available for LESS than the cost of a six pack of beer, and that gets me unlimited music from all my favorite bands! We recognize that people don\u2019t want to buy CDs or even download albums anymore, and that\u2019s fine \u2013 people should consume music the way they want. All we\u2019re asking of people is to subscribe to whatever service they prefer, because free streaming simply cannot sustain music creators OR the streaming services over the long-haul.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/div>\n<div>The second video was released last month for a single on the new album about depression called &#8216;Broken&#8217;.\u00a0<em><em>\u201cBroken was written about depression, what it feels like at your lowest\u201d states guitarist\u00a0<strong>Mat Cosgrove<\/strong>. \u201cWhile we were writing this album, our bassist Blair broke up with his girlfriend and it really tore him apart.\u201d Bassist\u00a0<strong>Blair Layt<\/strong>\u00a0continues, &#8220;it reflects a time in my life when I was the most depressed I&#8217;ve ever been. I just broke off an emotionally abusive relationship and my thick skin had been worn thin over its duration. I was suicidal, depressed and defeated. For a short time, I turned to drugs to numb the pain. I shut people out, and I almost forgot what it was like to be happy. Luckily, through the amazing support of friends and family, I managed to pull myself together, and take steps to better my state of mind, and return to the positive place I like to revel in. Looking back now, this song is a reminder for me of how far I&#8217;ve come since then. I hope that any of our fans feel those vibes when listening, and hopefully they may learn through my experience&#8230; that no matter how low you are, life can always get better if you allow it to&#8230; even if you think it can&#8217;t.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe
