WE ARE
FROM
STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN
ECLIPSE, the heavy rock powerhouse out of Stockholm Sweden have been making
increasingly larger waves on the European and American rock scene over the last years.
With stream counts in the hundreds of millions and tours ranging from South America to Australia and Japan these guys are a force to be reckoned with which festival goers of Wacken, Alcatraz, Summer Breeze to name but a few will be very aware of by now.
At its core Eclipse is a heavy rock band with massive hooks, and with an appeal that transcends genres. In addition to their numerous headline tours, Eclipse has also opened for a wide range of bands over the years including Aerosmith, My Chemical Romance and Def Leppard to name a few.
September sees the release of ECLIPSE’s new record Megalomanium II which will be immediately followed by a headlining tour across central Europe followed up by additional dates as the year moves on.
Lead singer Erik Martensson: If you thought the title of our previous record was proof of us suffering from delusions of grandeur then you’re absolutely right. The only way we could top it was to make another one. Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you, Megalomanium Part II.
Guitarist Magnus Henriksson: This band is on a continuous journey trying to find new avenues to explore. Having said that, Megalomanium Part II is probably closer to what people mostly associate Eclipse with. It’s filled to the brim with large choruses, beautiful melodies and some amazing guitar playing. Im totally unbiased by the way.
