ECLIPSE Share New Single “Still My Hero” + Music Video
New Studio Album ‘Megalomanium II’ Set For Release on September 20th Via Frontiers Music Srl
ECLIPSE To Play The Whisky in West Hollywood on March 16, 2025
Swedish rockers ECLIPSE share a new single “Still My Hero”, taken from their highly anticipated new studio album ‘Megalomanium II,’ set for release on September 20, 2024, via Frontiers Music Srl. The track is accompanied by a new music video, available below.
About the new single, lead singer Erik Mårtensson shared this:
“When I wrote this song I had the phrase ‘still my hero’ on my original scrap demo. The only hero I’ve ever had was my dad, so I made the whole song about him. He sadly passed away much too young in 2014. This is a tribute to a great man”.
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.
Erik commented on the upcoming release:
“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‘.”
Guitarist Magnus Henriksson continued:
“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.”

ECLIPSE has made 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.
After a sold-out headline tour across Europe at the end of 2023, the band continues to fill its busy live schedule in 2024. Following a successful run in Japan and South America, ECLIPSE is currently touring across Europe and will be headed to central Europe and the US after the summer. Additional dates will be added as the year moves on. For a full list of tour dates, visit HERE.
