Ladies and gentlemen, with a little bit of patience sometimes wishes do come true. Somebody must have been listening to pleas because it’s been confirmed that Swedish rockers (and Brainfart favorites) Graveyard will be touring the good ol’ United States! I have only been wishing for this to happen since I first laid ears on their latest album “Hisingen Blues” earlier this year. Graveyard drummer Axel Sjöberg had this to say about the band’s eminent return to the US:
“At last the circumstances of life and the music industry has allowed us to return to the land of infinite highways and corrupt bankers. Of mighty nature and excellent thrift stores. Of micro breweries and good Mexican food (which you can’t find in Gothenburg). Yes ladies and gentlemen, the boys in the ‘yard are returning to the U S of A in January, 2012. A good way to start the new year and an excuse to get fucked up and enjoy some good rocking music.
“With us on our travels across the nation are the very skillful musicians of Radio Moscow. With natural talent and relentless touring they are bound to leave jaws hanging and people wondering what just happened. Blues rock the way it’s meant to be played.”
