It is winter. It’s dark, and the moon is full and outside a storm is brewing. You’re having trouble sleeping tonight. Your mind is racing and you’re in a panic about the current state of pure music. Suddenly the angel of rock n roll appears before your tired eyes whilst a sweet melody haunts the air around her. She’s wearing a Led Zeppelin shirt, carrying Jim Morrison’s troubled soul in a jar in one hand and the Ronnie James Dio Bible in the other. A bright techno-colour light appears behind her as she raises her hands above her head. Her head is covered with wild and untamed red hair, that Led Zeppelin shirt ripping itself from her seductive and curvy bodice. BANG! An explosion! Winter has been torn from the sky, thrown into a black hole and overturned by an eternal summer. After the smoke clears you see the three items have merged. Merged into what? THIS ALBUM.
Graveyard will be injecting some much needed fire and funk into your virgin ears with their astonishing new record Lights Out.
Lights Out is the soundtrack to all your future satanic ritual orgies, all your future summer nights spent drinking beer and dancing on the beach till the sun rises over the sea. Never had a satanic ritual orgy where you sacrifice a goat and summon Ozzy before? You will now. 
With sweet guitars, vocals comparable to honey dripped into wine then filtered through 1970’s flare jeans and superb song writing, Lights Out should be on all your “Record of the Year” lists. I cannot explain how much I love this album. The production is the way production should be, with its rough but not too rough and slick but not too slick approach. The riffs take your face and tear it in two, leaving only the true essence of rock behind. The heartfelt vocals (provided by Joakim Nilsson) fly smoothly like a crow over the sexual rhythms of the interweaving instruments. Every song is just kick-ass. Have you grasped how much this record rocks yet?
Go and buy this record right now. If they don’t have it, bloody order it!
