About
Graveyard has their first release coming out on Feburary 19th! Get more info on the self-titled album here.
Steppin' out of the woods of Gothenburg, Sweden and right into your head is Graveyard. The quartet features Rikard Edlund (bass), Axel Sjöberg (Drums), Joakim Nilsson (GTuitar/Vocals), and Jonathan Ramm (Guitar/Vocals). When recording of the album was complete ex-member Truls Mörck quit and was replaced immediately by Ramm. Upon their initial formation Graveyard quickly recorded a two track demo, which would serve as a preview of what was to come. After playing only three gigs and recouping from three severe injuries, Graveyard managed to find themselves recording an album for the venerable Tee Pee Records.
Graveyard's self titled debut resurrects the sounds of 70's psychedelic rock. The clash of folk, psychedelic, and blues makes for a mind-bending trip back to the days of Cream, Sabbath, and Blue Cheer. The classic vibe is evident throughout, from the masterful analog production of Don Ahlsterberg (Soundtrack of our Lives, The International Noise Conspiracy, José Gonzalez) to the wah-wah guitar solos on tracks like the urgency filled "Lost in Confusion". The hard, blues infused opener "Evil Ways" features vocalist/guitarist Joakim Nilsson unleashing a Chris Cornell-esque howl, declaring "There lies a hole in my soul, that cannot be filled."
Track by track Graveyard brings back to life all that is right with rock and roll, from the dark haze that is brought upon by the space blues of "Blue Soul" to the rocking trip of "Submarine Blues". The band proves they have what it takes to hang with the classics while delivering a sound that is all their own.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov)
