Tommy Magnusson: Guitars, keyboard, bass and backing vocals.
He was born in the south of Sweden in March 1955, started to play the guitar as a teenager, though he quitted after a while just to start again in his early teens. He played just for fun at home. He listened to all the psychedelic stuff that was modern. Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath and some other hard music in the early seventies. He also listens a lot to Dream Theater, Rush, Rage and even some death metal. He has always listened to all kinds of music with an open mind for new influences. Now, after living half a century he finally found his way of making own music.
To be able to use all kinds of influences he needs people with different tastes, therefore No Rules have members where some are about half his age.
Martin Nilsson: Drums and backing vocals.
He was born in 1982 and began to play drums 7 years ago. After playing a couple of months he decided to go to musicschool. He went there for three years and it was a very good experience. After that he slacked around at home in his rehersalroom for a long time and practised and played with a whole bunch of strange people and bands hehe. Then Tommy and Martin got together in october 2005 and started to play music in tommys studio. Martin sleep and eat music, it´s his whole life. He likes to play many different styles but mostly progressive, symphonic rock and hardrock.
No Rules is a newly started band from Sweden, which began for real in the autumn 2004.
Before that, lead guitarist Tommy Magnusson had been working alone for many years in his home studio in a little village called Kallinge in Blekinge, Sweden. He had done a couple of songs before with No Rules but with another singer, Jens (he now sings back vocals in No Rules). But he needed more people than just himself so in October -04, he met the drummer Martin Nilsson that lived in a village, just a couple of miles from Tommy.
We started jamming and playing together, and Martin started to record drums on some already finished songs, and we came up with some new together in the studio, we worked very easy together because we listen to mostly the same music and both find strong melodies very important.
Sometime in 2005 when Tommy and Martin had recorded the most of the album, the lead singer Olof jumped over the fence (he is Tommy’s neighbour) and he listened and decided to record some vocals on the twelve tracks. He made up lyrics in his forklift at work and started to record the vocals a couple of months later.
It has been many late nights, many hours and many days in the studio next to our regular work at the local wood factory but now the debut album “Where We Belong” is finally finished. Our main goal is to make melodic symphonic rock with an original touch. Our biggest inspirations are bands like Journey, Asia, Dream-Theater, Genesis, Black Sabbath, Saga, Camel, Yes and Marillion.
The name No Rules came from the fact that we like to use inspiration from many different music styles and like to play what ever makes the music sound better in the studio, we like to have “no rules” in the studio in the meaning of mixing everything together, and try to come up with new and original ideas without losing the main theme in the songs, therefore “Where We Belong” is a very dynamic and melodic album.

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

regia GAETANO MORBIOLI: "ho voluto attualizzare in chiave moderna l’amore eterno di Giulietta e Romeo - afferma il popolare regista veronese - rivissuto nella città di Verona completamente deserta. Una storia d’amore dark che si sposa benissimo con la canzone di Davide".
