BARONESS 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: The latest full-length from Savannah, Georgia based sludge-prog metal collective Baroness marks their first LP to not be named after a colour, settling on the succinct yet poignant title of Stone; reflecting the project's darker and introspective sonic exploration of heaving heft and unsettling atmospherics. This is still the band fans have come to praise and heap adoration upon due to their reliable brand of fuzzed out psychedelic guitar solos, crushing riffs and catchy hooks, yet showcasing a more macabre, menacing bent this time around. Give one spin of lead single 'Last Word' and any and all concerns should immediately dissipate once experiencing the first signal sound of a gloriously grim and captivating new era for the group.

Leave no doubt though, this is still the band fans have come to know and adore with their reliable brand of fuzzed out psychedelic guitar solos, crushing riffs and catchy hooks. Just one spin of lead single 'Last Word' should be more than enough to dispel any concerns whilst signalling a gloriously grim and captivating new era for the group.
