UNIVERSE, the Swedish band that released their self-titled album in 1985 in the mid-80s and unfortunately disbanded after only that one album, but whose music was considered a hidden gem among fans, has reunited after 33 years under the name UNIVERSE INFINITY. They released \"Rock Is Alive,\" which is essentially their second album. The lineup remains the same as before, except for the change in vocalist to Andreas Eklund: Mikael Kling (G), Per Nilsson (G), Hasse Hagmann (B), Fredrik Kristrom (Keys), and Anders Wetterstr?m (Ds). While there are refinements after more than 30 years, the melancholic melodies characteristic of Scandinavia, which were evident in their debut album, remain intact, much to the delight of fans. After releasing their album, the band continued to perform live intermittently, while simultaneously reporting on social media that they were working on songs for their next album. It seemed as though the band's activities were progressing smoothly. However, around the summer of 2021, amidst the global COVID-19 pandemic, updates from the band stopped, leading everyone to believe they had simply disappeared. Yet, in the summer of 2022, a band called UNIVERSE III quietly formed, and social media accounts were created. In fact, UNIVERSE III was a band that had been revived in a new form from UNIVERSE INFINITY. Aside from the band name changing again, the biggest change with this revival was the disappearance of the name of Mikael Kling, the central figure in the formation of UNIVERSE. This is thought to be related to the reason why UNIVERSE INFINITY ceased activities, but the details are currently unknown. In any case, the band chose to operate under a new system as UNIVERSE III. Since its formation in the summer of 2022, they have been performing live and regularly releasing footage of them recording new songs, suggesting that the completion of their new album was nearing. Then, in the spring of 2024, their third album was finally completed and released to the world. Despite changes in members and the band name, this work, imbued with the same attitude and soul that has continued since their debut, is sure to satisfy fans of melody.
