Rockin' in the Graveyard live

(Bluelight)

"Graveyard Party Blues," revisited here from the group's 1990 studio effort, is the initial single from this 2023 Tavastia tour recording. And a wise selection it was. The brashness, headlong dive (featuring six strings afire), and blunt dispatch are emblematic of an all-players-leaning-in enterprise that may well leave stage boards in splinters.

Recommended: "Graveyard Party Blues," "Lost Paradise," "Gas Station," "I'm Moving," "He's Alright," "Blue Fool," "Shake It Up," "Rock-a-Billy Guy"

Recommended: "Black Lipstick," "Twilight Dance," "Hollow Joe," "Into Shreds," "Duel at the Dawn," "Tinseltown"

World analysts and the hipper in global grassroots populaces, alike, need to dig flames bursting brightly in Slovenia: Rock'n'Roll, often in its alarm-lights-flashing, rampageous, Neo-rockabilly and Cowpunk vestments, is shouting notice that matters are volatile in the Eastern region. All instruments/songs must be credited to right-spirited firestarters Joni Järlstrӧm and Joonas Hiltunin; the pair give incendiary accounts of themselves in crackling fashion. Listeners with cinematic minds' eyes will find closer "Kick, Stitches, and Two Broken Bones" evokes eyes-locked, crouching brawlers, circling slowly...

Recommended: "Texas Tuxedo," "Guys at the Gas Station," "Ne'er-Do-Well," "It's All About Rock'n'Roll," "Ain't No Crime," "Kick, Stitches, and Two Broken Bones"
