Our Take
Our Take
BARONESS have always been a band that defies easy categorisation, and their latest offering, "Gold & Grey," is no exception. This album is a cacophony of sound, a swirling vortex of riffs and melodies that envelops the listener in a haze of prog-rock splendor.
The opening track, "Front Toward Enemy," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its thunderous drums and searing guitar work. It's a relentless assault on the senses that grabs you by the collar and refuses to let go.
Throughout the album, BARONESS showcase their mastery of dynamics, effortlessly shifting from blistering heavy metal to delicate acoustic passages with ease. Tracks like "Tourniquet" and "I'd Do Anything" showcase this duality perfectly, offering moments of beauty and brutality in equal measure.
Lead vocalist John Baizley's raw, emotive vocals add a layer of vulnerability to the album, grounding the swirling chaos of the music in a sense of humanity. His lyrics, too, are a highlight, offering a glimpse into a world of introspection and self-discovery.
Overall, "Gold & Grey" is a triumph for BARONESS, a bold and adventurous statement from a band at the height of their powers. It's a journey worth taking, a sonic rollercoaster that will leave you breathless and wanting more. BARONESS have once again proven why they are one of the most exciting bands in rock music today.

About the artist
Baroness
Baroness, the Georgia-based rockers who have been making waves in the metal scene since their formation in 2003, are not your typical headbanging, leather-clad bunch. With a sound that combines elements of sludge, progressive rock, and even a touch of classic metal, Baroness have carved out a unique niche for themselves in the crowded world of heavy music. Led by frontman John Baizley, whose distinctive vocals and intricate guitar work have become a trademark of the band's sound, Baroness have earned a reputation for their dynamic live shows and their ability to seamlessly blend aggression and melody. But don't let their devil-may-care attitude fool you – these guys are serious musicians with serious chops. Their latest album, 2019's "Gold & Grey," is a sprawling epic that showcases the band's range and versatility. From the thunderous riffs of tracks like "Front Toward Enemy" to the haunting beauty of "Tourniquet," Baroness prove that they are capable of taking listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions with their music. But it's not just their musical prowess that sets Baroness apart – it's their unapologetic embrace of the weird and wonderful. Whether they're writing songs about mythical creatures or experimenting with unconventional song structures, Baroness never shy away from pushing the boundaries of what is considered "normal" in the world of metal. So if you're looking for a band that doesn't fit neatly into any one box, look no further than Baroness. With their genre-defying sound and fearless approach to music, these guys are sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone lucky enough to catch them live.
