Eclipse has a new record in store, the seventh full-length in their discography, as they head toward the release of Paradigm on October 11th via Frontiers Music Srl. Frontman Erik Martensson says of the upcoming album, “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 Paradigm 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!” This week, the band has revealed the first taste of the record, in the form of the single “Viva La Victoria”, available here.
