Nachdem die schwedischen Retro-Rocker von GRAVEYARD im September vergangenen Jahres überraschend ihre Auflösung bekanntgaben, scheint es nun doch weiterzugehen. In einem Video, das die Band am Donnerstag über ihre Facebook-Seite verbreitete, taucht ein Schreiben mit folgendem Wortlaut auf:

„A new day rising.

Living isn’t always easy and playing in a band doesn’t tend to make the noble art of living well any easier. Things weren’t working and in the end a change in the line-up was the only option for our return. Graveyards journey will continue with a yet to be named new future drummer and the reasons behind this change of scenery is something that we don’t want, wish or will comment. We’re gonna leave it be with Axels own words: ‚Word on the street is that there is a job opening in the drummers section.‘ We wish Axel all the best and you can follow his next move with his already set to fly new outfit BIG KIZZ.

We’d also like to apologize to each and everyone of you out there for putting you through these uncertain Graveyard times. With that said we’re beyond glad to announce that as of today the Graveyard is officially re-opened for business. Albums will be recorded, shows will be played and all of this hopefully for a long, long time to come.

Let’s shine on!

Graveyard“

Es sieht also ganz danach aus, als könnten sich Fans auch in Zukunft auf Live-Shows und Alben der nur an einer Position veränderten Band freuen. Wer Axel Sjöberg am Schlagzeug ersetzt, bleibt abzuwarten.
