Now’s your chance to take in a second single from Baroness‘ sixth studio album, “Stone“. Newly made available by the band is the song “Beneath The Rose“. “Stone” itself will meet a September 15th release date through the band’s own Abraxan Hymns label.
Vocalist/guitarist John Baizley commented of the experimental track:
“It feels great to be releasing music again. Especially a song like ‘Beneath the Rose,’ which we began writing during the Gold & Grey sessions almost six years ago. During those sessions, the song never quite took off but once we began writing Stone, one of the first things I did was pull that main guitar riff out of retirement to see if we could breathe new life into the bones of this song.
Paired with ‘Last Word,’ ‘Beneath the Rose‘ became a microcosmic expression of Stone, a kind of mission statement that hints at the wide musical territory we cover throughout the rest of the album. It’s also part one of a trilogy of songs that also includes ‘Choir‘ and ‘The Dirge.'”
As previously reported, the alternative metal collective will be mounting an extensive fall tour in support of that effort, read on for the dates.
