There are three bands with the name 'Total Eclipse'. #1) Total Eclipse is a psytrance/goa band originally formed in 1992 in France by Loïc Van Poucke, Serge Souque and Stephane Holweck.
Their first tracks appeared on a few compilations in 1990, and by 1994 they had a few singles out with Dragonfly Records and T.I.P. Records. Their first full length album Delta Aquarids and the double CD Violent Relaxation were released in 1995 and 1996 respectively, both with Blue Room Released. They also had a single song, Psychedelic Terrorist, on the album Tsunami, released in 1999.

There are several bands with that name: 1. Minneapolis outfit Salamander began as a duo in the summer of 1992 featuring Erik Wivinus and Sean Connaughty on guitars and vocals. They played mostly mellow drone-based instrumentals that in retrospect sounded much like contemporaries Labradford or Low. Doug Morman joined on bass in early 1993. They recorded and played gigs as a drummer-less trio until Bryce Kastning joined on drums and keyboards in early 1994.
