Baroness have premiered a new video for their new song “Beneath The Rose.” This track is from the band’s new album “Stone,” which will be released on September 15.
John Baizley said the following about the song:
“It feels great to be releasing music again. Especially a song like ‘Beneath The Rose,’ which we began writing during the ‘Gold & Grey’ sessions almost six years ago. During those sessions, the song never quite took off but once we began writing ‘Stone,’ one of the first things I did was pull that main guitar riff out of retirement to see if we could breathe new life into the bones of this song. Paired with ‘Last Word,’ ‘Beneath the Rose’ became a microcosmic expression of ‘Stone,’ a kind of mission statement that hints at the wide musical territory we cover throughout the rest of the album. It’s also part one of a trilogy of songs that also includes ‘Choir’ and ‘The Dirge.’”
He also added the following about the video:
“Much the same as we decided to create and produce ‘Stone’ ourselves, we’ve adopted a similar DIY attitude regarding our videos. This is the second installment in a video series that we’re creating: shooting, directing and editing ourselves. It’s been an exciting and creative process utilizing elements of photography, stop-motion, animation and traditional video. We’re curious to see how far we can go with this ‘Stone’ video project series, relying heavily on found objects, local environments and our admittedly limited lighting, video and photo equipment. Like all Baroness projects, it feels great to further expand our creative vision and capabilities.”
