History of the band
The band was firstly formed by a keyboardist André Osokin and guitarist, Tim Kotchergin (ex-Citadel of Winds) around the end of 2002. That was a kind of a "school duo", where they played at various events. In 2004, they recorded their first instrumental, Dream. From that time, André started to write rock/metal songs, most of which the band plays even now. That year, Tim was invited to play the guitar in the band, called Citadel of Winds (which is now called Korsika). In 2005 many players joined Eclipse Hunter, then left. André carried on writing songs. In the end of 2005, a talented guitar player Vladimir Ilyuhin (ex-Retriem) joined the band and still plays there. In February 2006, bassist Tim Alexeyev joined the band and asked his good friend, a powerful drummer, Andrey Novosyolov (Another Voice) to join the band. All the guys seemed to fit each other very well, so they started to search for a vocalist. Vladimir suggested his ex-bandmate Alexey Tyshkevich (Natisk, ex-Retriem). But he was very busy with his projects, so in the end of 2006, Eclipse Hunter hired Dmitry Kazakov (Annexation, Troy). In August, 2007, Eclipse Hunter and Dmitriy decided to part ways. The band announced the talented Alexander Yurov (Dirizhabl) to be the new vocalist in October. After a few gigs with Alexander, Eclipse Hunter started the recordings of their debut album in December, 2007.
