Swedish melodic rock band was formed in Stockholm in 1999 by singer Erik Mårtensson. After having produced a 4 track demo himself, he landed a deal with the English located Z records. To produce what was to become the first Eclipse album,he completed the line-up with Magnus Henriksson (Lead Guitar) & Anders Berlin (Drums & Keys). The first album "The Truth & a little more" was completed and released in 2001 on Z records. It also included guest performances by the legendary Europe guitarist Kee Marcello and Mats Olausson (ex Yngwie Malmsteen) In 2003 they landed a deal with Frontiers records and released their 2:nd album “Second To None” which was a highly critically acclaimed album among the melodic rock audience. This time the line-up featured Erik Mårtensson, Magnus Henriksson, Fredrik Folkare (bass), Magnus Ulfstedt (drums) and Mats Olausson was once again hired as a “stunt-keyboardplayer” in the studio. The album promised to appeal to all fans of such bands as Talisman and Europe due to the heavy guitar approach and the big melodies of their songwriting. Also this record got very well reviewed in the melodic rock audience and created a faithful and strong following for the band. Due to difficulties within the band and line-up changes again, the band took a couple of years off and it wouldn’t be until the summer of 2007 before they started working again. Erik Mårtensson & Magnus Henriksson (who were the surviving members of the band) took 1 week off and wrote the entire album in those seven days. Once they knew what direction to head for, it was quite easy. This time the band had gone for a straighter, classic and riff oriented hard rock. The title for their next release on Frontiers records will be “Are you ready to rock” and the new rock steady line-up of 2008 features Erik Mårtensson, Magnus Henriksson, Robert Bäck – drums and Johan Berlin – Keyboard. And they are ready!

The a cappella vocal band is a six-man group with a first published album ("Once") in 2001.

The Hungarian band was formed in 1990 by Tamás Tisza – guitar, Tamás Barna – guitar and Attila Hudák – bass. Later on Attila Szarvas – drums joined the band. Their music contains elements of psychedelic rock, doom and jazz music. These elements are recognizable in the harmonies and structural setting up of the songs.
They released two demos and two full length albums ("Soft Orange" in 1997 and "Slowsonic" in 2006). Both releases are free to download at their official site.

Matt Lee, a.k.a. Gammer, made his first appearance in the hardcore scene during 2002 and went on to be a very successful and prolific producer, best known for his extensive discography on the revamped Essential Platinum label. A large proportion of his tracks on the label are collaborations with the label's founder Dougal but he has also had solo releases and appeared alongside other artists such as G. Spencer, Innovate and DJ Seduction. In addition, he has remixed tracks from various artists including Cortina, A.M.S. and Ham under his alias Eclipse. Aside from his vinyl and digital download releases, his music appears on many albums, including the highly successful Bonkers series.

There is also a multitude of Black and Death Metal bands that operate under the name 'Eclipse'.

There is also a swedish straight edge hardcore band from Umeå that has released some records under the name Eclipse where amongst others the brother of Dennis Lyxzén (from Refused) is one of the members.

20) Eclipse formed in 1999. That August, the group released its first demo, "I", although shortly after its release, Eclipse had its first lineup change when drummer Ma- left. He wasn't immediately replaced, and Eclipse then released their second demo, "II", in October of 1999, to rough sales. In December of 1999, the group released its first single, which was self-titled and live-distributed only, and in March of 2000, Eclipse released their third demo, "III", which had rough sales as well. In May of 2000, bassist Satoru officially joined, and the group then rereleased their first demo, "I", that summer under their new lineup. In November of 2000, Eclipse released its first mini-album, "Eclipse-Zero", which was an absolute flop in the visual underground, and copies are extremely scarce to find today as a result. Eclipse pushed onward, however, and later appeared on the "Make an Epoch 2" omnibus in June of 2001, before running into yet another lineup change that September when Satoru and one of the guitarists of the group, Hiderin, left. While Satoru was not replaced, Hiderin was replaced by Shuji, and Eclipse went on to tour throughout the remainder of 2001 and the first half of 2002 heavily, but eventually ended up disbanding in the summer of 2002. Shuji and frontman Non both retired from the visual scene after the group split and formed the indies group Trick2Soul, which they were both active in until it eventually split in 2008. After Trick2Soul split, Non then retired from the underground music scene in general, while Shuji went on to join the indies group Eternalnote, which also split in 2010. After Eternalnote split, Shuji then retired from the underground music scene as well.

Take Me Down
Eclipse Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

take me down
6 underground
the ground beneath your feet
laid out low
nothing to go
nowhere a way to meet.

i've got a head full of drought

down here
so far off of losing out
round here
Overground, watch this space
I'm open to falling from grace.

calm me down
bring it round
too way high off your street
i can see
like nothing else
in me
you're better than I wannabe
don't think 'cos i understand
i care,
don't think 'cos i'm talking
we're friends
Overground, watch this space
I'm open to falling from grace

talk me down
safe and sound,
too strung up to sleep
wear me out
scream and shout
swear my time's never cheap
i fake my life like i've lived
too much,
i take whatever you're given; not enough,

Overground, watch this
space, I'm open
i fake my life like i've lived
too much,
i take whatever you're given; not enough,
Overground, watch this
space, I'm open

to falling
from grace.

Overall Meaning

In Eclipse's song Take Me Home, the lyrics are full of emotion and vivid imagery. The song appears to be about a person who is lost and struggling to find their way. It starts with the lyrics "take me down 6 underground, the ground beneath your feet, laid out low, nothing to go, nowhere a way to meet." These lines seem to suggest that the person is feeling isolated and alone, and they are searching for someone or something to help them find their way.

The next verse, "i've got a head full of drought down here, so far off of losing out round here," seems to indicate that the person is feeling overwhelmed and helpless. They need someone to "calm me down, bring it round, too way high off your street." The person they are addressing seems to be someone they admire or see as a source of comfort.

As the song progresses, the lyrics become more desperate. The person is asking to be talked down and made to feel safe, as they are "too strung up to sleep." They are willing to take whatever is given to them, yet it is not enough, and they are open to "falling from grace." The song ends with the repeated lines "i fake my life like i've lived too much, i take whatever you're given; not enough, Overground, watch this space, I'm open to falling from grace." These words serve to reinforce the idea that the person is feeling lost and is searching for something to fill the void in their life.

Line by Line Meaning

take me down
I want you to bring me to a lower emotional state

6 underground
I want to be below the surface level of emotions

the ground beneath your feet
I want to be close to you

laid out low
I need to be vulnerable with you

nothing to go
I don't have any other options

nowhere a way to meet.
I don't know how to connect with you

i've got a head full of drought down here
I'm emotionally empty inside

so far off of losing out round here
I feel like I'm losing my chance with you

Overground, watch this space I'm open to falling from grace.
I'm taking a risk to be with you

calm me down bring it round
I need your help to find peace

too way high off your street
I'm out of my comfort zone being with you

i can see like nothing else in me you're better than I wannabe
You inspire me to be a better person

don't think 'cos i understand i care,
Just because I understand you doesn't mean I don't care about you

don't think 'cos i'm talking we're friends
Just because we're talking doesn't mean we're automatically friends

talk me down safe and sound
I need you to help me feel secure

too strung up to sleep wear me out scream and shout
I'm too anxious to rest

swear my time's never cheap i fake my life like i've lived too much,
I feel like I'm always on the clock and I'm pretending to be someone I'm not

i take whatever you're given; not enough,
I'll accept whatever you offer me, but it's not fulfilling

to falling from grace.
I'm willing to risk losing everything for a chance with you
