Similar to “Stairway to Heaven,” “Uncomfortably Numb” (from Hisingen Blues) begins as a brooding number that speeds up when Jonatan Ramm hits the gas and leads the song into full-on rock mode.


With a backline of Orange amps, Ramm and Graveyard play a rumbling tribute to their homeland, complete with dual guitar solos from Joakim Nilsson and Ramm.


This Bonnaroo 2011 finale starts calmly, but the song accelerates to ramming speed thanks to Nilsson’s lamb-to-lion vocals and the jousting guitar solos.
