Baroness confirms: new album in the works

US progressive sludge metal band Baroness have confirmed that they are currently working on a new album.

At the same time, the band has revealed that they will be performing at the upcoming Prepare The Ground festival in Toronto, Canada. The event will take place between May 30th and June 1st at various venues around the city. The band will perform the entirety of their first two albums “Red” and “Blue” at the festival.

“Last month, for our annual Philly pre-holiday show, we performed our first two full length albums: Red and Blue. It was a great experience, unearthing the deeper cuts from those records that had faded from our setlist and it offered a rare opportunity to play some of those songs for the first time ever outside the studio. After the overwhelming and positive response from the Philadelphia shows (and while we’re busy writing our next record) we’re excited to present Red and Blue in full, once again. Thanks to everyone at Prepare the Ground Festival for giving us the opportunity to share this special experience. See you there!” The band comments.

The band’s previous album “Gold & Grey” was released in 2019.
