The band also tour across Europe in the fall with more
shows to be planned in the UK and rest of the World in 2020.
The new album title Paradigm is no coincidence.
Eclipse’s new album stands as a paradigm for the sound they’ve developed over
their last albums: massive arena choruses over heavy guitars coupled with
frontman Erik Martensson's stellar vocals.
Over the last few years they have per-formed to
audiences around the globe including the U.S, Japan, Australia and Europe and
have opened for giants like Aerosmith and Scorpions. Their albums have amassed
millions of streams and charted in several European countries including a top 20
spot on the official Swedish album chart for their previous
record.
Describing the new record Paradigm, Erik Martensson
says: “I once saw someone describing our previous record as an accelerating
motion, picking up more and more speed as the record progressed. Well, I think
it is safe to say that Para-digm picks up where the previous record left off. We
have a whistle blowing a few seconds in on the opening track and from there it’s
just full speed ahead! We’ve written some of the best songs of our career and we
can’t wait for people to hear them!”
The album’s opening track Viva La Victoria is the first
video off the record and sees the band cooperating with renowned video director
Patric Ullaeus who has previously made videos for bands like In Flames, Arch
Enemy and Europe to name a few.
Magnus Henriksson, the band’s lead guitarist: “Viva La
Victoria was the obvious choice for the first video and Patric was fantastic to
work with. We had a bunch of fans show up on the set and made the video together
with them which fits the theme of the song perfectly.”
“Paradigm” is Eclipse tour de force: the crafting of the
tracks on this album is su-perb and overall this is a killer hard rock album
with many highlights. If you like modern, well-played well-produced hard rock,
don't miss it.
