Baroness?

Yeah, that song didn't get me too fussed. I really hope the double album thing doesn't turn out to be a snoozefest.

They're crazy good live, they even did a little section of Sleeping Giant by Mastodon. I got their Red Album, though, and I hadn't been able to get much into it. I'm gonna try again soon, and I might check out a couple other albums before giving up.

New song- March to the Sea

Pitchfork's description is spot on. They've gone full-mainstream-rock. Unless this double album ends up being half-metal half-rock, it's going to create a deep divide in their fan base.

I trust them though. That song was much better Take My Bones Away, and I think they could make some great rock.

Saw these guys a couple of years ago with Metallica. Didn't quite like them, nor did many other people. They had quite a few of us yawning to be honest.

Pitchfork is a hipster site, of course they're going to note "mainstreamness". Mainstream isn't bad if it's pulled off correctly, a la bands like Tool. I think everyone compares them to Mastodon, and it's now more appropriate because The Hunter wasn't very proggy at all, and more poppy. This album seems to be like that, but it sounds much better IMO. The Hunter was a pretty weak effort though.

Lol, Metallica. Doesn't surprise me that you couldn't get into Baroness then.

I really enjoyed this single, the guitar is just phenomenal. I'm fully prepared for this album.

The band members of Baroness and their crew are recovering from injuries sustained after their tour bus crashed outside of Bath, England early on Wednesday morning.

John Baizley has broken his left arm and left leg. Allen Blickle and Matt Maggioni each suffered fractured vertebrae. All three remain in the hospital as of this writing. Pete Adams has been treated and released from the hospital.

Three of the five crew members who were on the bus have also been treated and released. One member is still undergoing testing. The driver of the bus remains in critical condition.

Please stay tuned for further updates. Thank you for all the support during this extremely difficult time.

Their tour bus went off the road. Fuck. I was THIS close to seeing them last week in Copenhagen.. looks like I'm not going to have another chance for a long time. Not that it matters, I just hope they all make a full recovery.
