LISTEN TO A NEW SONG FROM WHAT MIGHT BE THE BEST ALBUM OF 2009

I’m not 100% decided that Baroness’ Blue Record is my favorite album of the year, and there are still some sure-to-be-awesome releases coming (The Red Chord, etc.). But I listened to Blue Record again last night so I could start writing my review, and even if it doesn’t end up at the very top of my year-end list, it’s going to get close. The album is simply awesome.

The band is now streaming “A Horse Called Golgotha” from the album on their MySpace page. It’s a great song on an record full of great songs; you just need check it out. Like, drop what you’re doing and go listen right now. It’s really that good.

Blue Record comes out October 13 on Relapse. I can’t fucking wait for you all to hear it.

    I’ve been waiting for this one for a while

    That’s the way progressive rock should be written. Incorporated, not blatant “because we can”. That’s a fucking awesome song.

  • bearbomb

    I pretty much decided during this listen that I’m going to seek out the vinyl version of this album, a. because the artwork kicks ass and b. so that I can become an even bigger snob than I already am. Can’t wait!

  • groverXIII

    Awesome.

  • mrbinky

    Not good.

  • Meta

    Myspace audio makes my ears sad.

    • loose nut

    Very good. I still love old Baroness for what is, but they definitely stepped into a different, positive direction on this one.

  • Johnny Ringo

    I’ve been on a Baroness high lately, so this is great news.

    Looking forward to the new album, for sure.

    Sweet..
    I like this song better than the other song but I don’t think the album will have the same impact as listening to the Red Album for the first time.
    I am still excited for it though.

    does anyone notice the necklace of dicks??

    • Guy that knows way too many dead baby jokes

      I see where you are going with that but I think they are supposed to be eggs that are breaking

    • The Ghost of D. Boon

      Dude how the hell are you seeing dicks?

      (unless you see dicks everywhere)

    • jason

      yup, them eggs are a dick.

  • LilalCFH

    I think they suck. Am I alone?

    • Andrew

      Their EP’s are awesome. The Red Album is a pile of countrified shit.

      So, yes and no. I have a really difficult time believing Blue Record will be better than Kylesa’s Static Tensions or Burnt By The Sun’s Heart of Darkness.

  • The Ghost of D. Boon

    I wasn’t too crazy about “Sweetest Curse” but this tune fucking slays.
