Band Review: Counter Eclipse


Counter Eclipse is a two-man urban/pop ensemble. Their sound is mainly hip hop, with a bit more emphasis on the techno side, and somewhat of an island flavor.

They do periodically branch out, as you can hear on "Changes", which references "The Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby and the Range, and on "Girlfriend".

Their Full Spectrum EP, with seven tracks, can be listened to via Soundcloud or Reverbnation. Youtube videos are not of the music so much, though one does show a recording session, but of the two members, Dbl Edge and Slickums, often just giving opinions on various topics, but also spoofing a nature documentary.

I found them a little more enjoyable than similar groups for the ways that they do differentiate, as there is not quite the same feeling of sameness. The music can be easily checked out via the internet.
