Baroness - STONE (Deluxe) (2023) [Official Digital Download]

Grammy-nominated heavy rock band Baroness returns with their new album "Stone" in 2023. The Philadelphia quartet, consisting of John Baizley (guitar/vocals/illustration), Gina Gleason (guitar), Nick Jost (bass) and Sebastian Thomson (drums), has streamlined the massive multi-genre vocabulary of its critically acclaimed predecessor Gold & Grey (2019, DE# 14) on its sixth album, "Stone." This is still very much Baroness - just refocused to be more efficient, and rethought as a result of stability. The standout tracks of "Stone," "Last Word," "Beneath the Rose," "Shine," and "Anodyne," reflect thoughtfully, groovily, and effortlessly break up the tumult.

While Baroness wrote "Stone," Baizley recorded and pre-mixed the album. After the group finished recording drums, guitars and bass, they took everything back to Baizley's basement - where parts of Gold & Grey were also recorded - to record vocals and add other details. "Stone" was then turned over to Grammy-nominated mixmaster Joe Barresi (Kyuss, Alice In Chains) and Grammy-winning mastering guru Bob Ludwig (Led Zeppelin, Nirvana) at Gateway Mastering Studios for final mixing and polishing.

Baroness received a GRAMMY® Award nomination for the song "Shock Me" (from the 2015 album Purple) in the Best Metal Performance category. Purple received worldwide praise, with Pitchfork writing that it contains "some of the biggest and strongest songs Baroness have ever written," and Mojo proclaiming that "Baroness have delivered their masterpiece." The album received numerous year-end accolades, including "Shock Me" ranking #10 on Entertainment Weekly's Top 40 Songs of 2015, #6 on Pitchfork's Best Metal Albums of 2015, and #7 on Rolling Stone's 20 Best Metal Albums of 2015. The band's catalog of studio albums is "Gold & Grey" (2019), "Purple" (2015), "Yellow & Green" (2012), "Blue Record" (2009), "Red Album" (2007).
