Rolling Stone recently premiered the new GRAVEYARD music video, "Too Much Is Not Enough", saying, "the song suggests a long-lost Stax Records single". View the video now at this location.
"We all know how it goes," the band comments on the song. "There's ying and there's yang. Too little and too much and neither one is enough. Somewhere, there is love and the universe finds it's balance in a perfect ballad." The "Too Much Is Not Enough" video was shot on location at Sweden's historic Stadshotell.
GRAVEYARD's video for the Innocence & Decadence single, "The Apple and the Tree" was directed by Jonas Petersson and shot outside Fagersta, Sweden (hometown of The Hives). The video depicts the band working and enjoying life on a countryside farm. Check out GRAVEYARD's "The Apple and the Tree" now at this location.
GRAVEYARD's new album, Innocence & Decadence, was recorded live in the studio, directly to analog tape, with producer Johan Lindström and builds on the solid foundation and formidable reputation that the group has cultivated since its formation in 2006, providing the most shining example to date of a sound the band calls "classic rock with a modern roll". Recorded in Stockholm, Sweden's Atlantis Studio (ABBA, Scorpions, The Hives), the record features the return of original bassist and founding member Truls Mörck, who sings lead vocals on the new song "From A Hole In the Wall". The album also sees guitarist Jonathan Ramm sing leads on the track "Far Too Close".
Simply stated, Innocence & Decadence proves that GRAVEYARD ' like no other band ' can honor rock history in their own unique way and at the same time feel as current and hot as global warming.
