A Brief History of Eclipse
Eclipse, formed in Stockholm in 1999, has been a prominent name in the melodic hard rock genre. The band’s founding members include Erik Mårtensson (vocals/guitar) and Magnus Henriksson (guitar). Their debut album, The Truth and a Little More, was released in 2001, featuring contributions from notable musicians such as Kee Marcello of Europe fame. In 2004, they followed up with their sophomore album, Second to None, and have since released over ten albums, with the latest being Megalomanium II, which dropped in 2024.
Previous Performance at Knislinge
Eclipse is no stranger to Knislinge, having performed there in 2016. The lineup at that time featured Erik and Magnus alongside drummer Philip Crusner and bassist Magnus Ulfstedt. Since 2019, the bass duties have been handled by Philip’s brother, Victor Crusner, bringing a fresh dynamic to the band.
Musical Style and Influence
For those unfamiliar with Eclipse, their music embodies world-class melodic hard rock. It’s essential to clarify that while their video for “All I Want” might suggest otherwise, they are not a black metal band.
