Baroness give listeners a final taste of what’s to come on their eagerly anticipated new album Yellow & Green (July 17, Relapse Records) with the premiere of a third song, “Eula,” today via Spin.com (http://www.spin.com/articles/hear-baroness-shimmering-opus-eula-yellow-green). Also included in Spin’s summer album preview, the magazine describes “Eula” as “dripping with chantable harmonies and immersive riffs.”


The East Coast-based band is featured on the August cover of Hails & Horns Magazine (facebook.com/hailsandhorns), where the quartet discuss the writing and recording of Yellow & Green and playing the new songs on the road.  Baroness is also the July cover story for Decibel Magazine. They just played at Metallica’s inaugural Orion Music & More Fest, and were just announced to play Fun Fun Fun Fest. More tour dates listed below.

The Savannah, GA rockers have previously released two songs from Yellow & Green: “Take My Bones Away” and “March to the Sea”, which are posted below. Also you will find a new in-studio video clip that has more info on the new record. The nearly six minute video has some behind-the-scenes in-studio footage of the band and also performing a new song live. The band goes into further details about the genesis of the album and about their “song first, performance second” attitude, via Paste Magazine. Finally, check out the new Pitchfork video on them, also below.

Pre-orders for the 2CD or 2xLP album are available now: http://bit.ly/BaronessYellowGreen.
