Ce n'est pas du tout le même registre, mais oui ils peuvent plaire à un public jeune c'est certain.
Leur musique est « calibrée » pour plaire aussi aux non-métalleux. Je pense qu’en festival ils doivent attirer pas mal de monde. C’est plutôt assez proche de ce qu’on appelait Hard FM dans le temps. Mais avec une bonne touche de Hard Rock. H.E.a.t. sont vachement plus gentils. Mais mon marmot n’accroche pas….Everflow a écrit : ↑24 juil. 2021, 21:01Ce n'est pas du tout le même registre, mais oui ils peuvent plaire à un public jeune c'est certain.
A l'occasion essaie quand même les titres/vidéos précédents, car pour moi ils font partie du top de la (florissante) scène hard mélodique nordique, avec Heat et compagnie.
Swedish rockers, Eclipse, have announced the upcoming release of their tenth studio album, Megalomanium, on September 1. The first single from the album, "The Hardest Part Is Losing You", is out today accompanied by a music video. See below.
Singer Erik Mårtensson explains the meaning behind the album title: “Since the previous record Wired, we have been fortunate enough to be able to play to a lot of different audiences all over the world. No matter where we are, we always find a way to connect with people through those initial roots of rock ‘n roll music. Megalomanium is precisely that: it’s Eclipse paying homage to the full scope that is our ever-growing fan base, through the elements that have become staples in the band’s catalog, and also daring to venture into new uncharted territories and sounds. If Wired was a collection of our favorite 11 beers at the time, Megalomanium is an album riddled with the full DNA of the band, a fearless dive into the deep end of the pool - or in this case - the lake Siljan surrounding the island in the middle of Sweden where we record all our music. The last three or four years have definitely broadened the scope of what we feel we are capable of. Fueled by recent years’ success we started writing and recording our most ambitious album to date, Megalomanium. The title is, of course, intended to be a little tongue-in-cheek, but in all fairness, we entered the studio this time with a LOT of confidence in terms of what Eclipse is and could be.”
Over the last 10 years, Eclipse has been reaching an ever-growing audience with each album release thanks to their stellar songwriting and high energy performances. Their last tours have brought them to stages in Japan, Australia, the US and all over Europe including some of the world’s largest heavy rock festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Graspop and Sweden Rock.
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 Scorpions.
“I love the fact that we have a diverse following these days,” says Mårtensson. “We have strived to evolve both in terms of sound and songwriting with every record and clearly our fans are happy to come join us for the ride. Even better, they have continuously invited a bunch of their friends along the way. We see proof of that every night.”
The proof is also in the numbers. Eclipse has generated well over 100 million streams online and approximately half a million monthly listeners across the major music services, making them one of biggest rock bands to come out of Sweden in recent years.
Swedish rockers, Eclipse, are thrilled to announce the release of their new studio album, Megalomanium II, on September 20 via Frontiers Music Srl.
Lead singer Erik Mårtensson comments on the album: “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 II."
“This band is on a continuous journey trying to find new avenues to explore. Having said that, Megalomanium 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. I’m totally unbiased, by the way,” Magnus Henriksson adds.
Eclipse celebrates the album announcement with a new single, “The Spark”, accompanied by a music video. The band shared their excitement for the new single, with Mårtensson commenting: “Our new single 'The Spark' hits the ground running with a riff that’s got more stickiness than a Hubba Bubba bubble popped over a 90’s goatee. Don’t let the gum reference fool you, this song contains one of our heaviest verses so far, but it ends up in an Eclipse signature-style chorus that will come in handy at the festivals we’re playing this summer.
“We’ve been toying around with this idea for probably the last three records now, and I’m really happy we gave it time to develop,” added guitarist Magnus Henriksson. "Musically, it’s like a weird mix of heavy Eclipse and almost EDM-like melodies. I have no idea how we ended up here; all I know is that taking this one to the stage should be awesome!”
Watch the video for "The Spark" below.
Eclipse, the heavy rock powerhouse out of Stockholm, is renowned for its signature sound of massive hooks and stellar musicianship, quickly becoming one of Sweden's largest heavy rock bands with well over 100 million streams on streaming services. Following on from the release of Megalomanium last September and, most recently, of the exclusive 7’’ vinyl “Apocalypse Blues” and the single “Falling To My Knees”, the band's trajectory to craft memorable anthems is bound to stay intact.
Eclipse has mad increasingly larger waves on the European and American rock scene over the last few years. With tours ranging from South America to Australia and Japan, these guys are a force to be reckoned with, which festival-goers of Wacken, Alcatraz, and Summer Breeze, to name but a few, will be very aware of by now.
At its core, Eclipse is a heavy rock band 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. With their unique sound, Eclipse is one of Sweden's most influential heavy rock bands.
