Los Angeles, CA, April 2nd, 2015 – The metal super group X-World/5 is re- releasing the album “New Universal Order” on April 7th. The band is a collaboration between Magnus Rosen, Big Swede, Andy LaRocque, Reeves Gabrels & Nils K. Rue.The album was first released in 2008 but will now be available again. The members are based in USA, England, and Norway.

“When me and Magnus first talked about doing a project we wanted to have friends from different parts of the world involved. It turned out to be a pretty interesting line-up,” says Big Swede.

The concept for the project was trying to do something new, interesting and futuristic, mixing metal, electronic sounds and powerful vocals, sometimes distorted.

“How would a metal band sound 1000 years from now? That’s the question which started it all when me and Big Swede were discussing ideas for the project,” continues Magnus Rosen.

“I had Reeves Gabrels in my studio in LA while Andy and Magnus were doing stuff at Andy’s place outside of . Nils did his parts in Norway. Then me and Andy mixed half of the songs each in our own studios. It was a very easy process and because we were located in different parts of the world, it was impossible to get tired of each other and no fighting occurred,” laughs Big Swede. Members:

Magnus Rosen (Hammerfall)

Big Swede (Refurbished, John Christ)

Reeves Gabrels (The Cure)

Andy LaRocque (King Diamond)

Nils K. Rue (Pagan’s Mind)

BIG SWEDE is all over the place musically, running his recording studio, music production company and record label in Los Angeles. He brings his experience and energy to bear on every project.
