Grammy-award nominated heavy rock band Baroness mark their much-anticipated return with new album, STONE. Their sixth record overall and third released via Abraxan Hymns, STONEfinds the Philadelphia-based quartet of John Baizley (guitars/vocals/illustration), Gina Gleason (guitars), Nick Jost (bass), and Sebastian Thomson (drums) streamlining the momentous multi-genre vocabulary of its critically-acclaimed predecessor Gold & Grey (2019). This is still very much Baronessjust refocused for efficiency and rethought as a consequence of stability. STONEs most prominent tracks, Last Word, Beneath the Rose, Shine, and Anodyne, reflect thoughtfully, groove deeply, and refract tumult effortlessly.While Baroness wrote STONE, Baizley recorded and pre-mixed it. After the group finished tracking drums, guitars, and bass, they took everything back to Baizleys unfinished basement – where parts of Gold & Grey were also recordedin Pennsylvania to put down the vocals and add other bells and whistles. STONE was then handed off to Grammy-nominated mix master Joe Barresi (Kyuss, Alice In Chains) for final mixing and polishing and Grammy-winning mastering guru Bob Ludwig (Led Zeppelin, Nirvana) at Gateway Mastering Studios.
