OUT NOW

Artist/Band: SECULAR
Single Title: Cruel is the Wheel
Release date: 10 October 2025
Label: Self-released
Format: Digital
Genre: Heavy metal
Country: Australia

The track is self released in digital format and was recorded at Oracle Sound Studio with engineer Jay Huxtable.

SECULAR work where groove metal’s weight meets classic heavy metal bite. “Cruel is the Wheel” distils that approach into a direct, tightly played song, driven by down picked guitars, a locked rhythm section and a vocal take that keeps the message upfront. The recording is clean and unforced, with the band favouring impact over excess. This single also opens the next phase of their activity, with two further releases planned in the following months.

Line-up

Trent Croft - vocals
Andrew Medcalf - guitar
David Ripley - bass
Luke Gardner - drums
