Baroness have released a stream of their new single titled Throw Me An Anchor.

It’s the third single to be lifted from the band’s upcoming album Gold & Grey which will launch on June 14 via Abraxan Hymns.

Baroness previously released Seasons (opens in new tab) and Borderlines from the follow-up to 2015’s Purple.

Speaking about the record, vocalist and guitarist John Baizley said: “Our goal is, was, and will always be to write increasingly superior, more honest and compelling songs – and to develop a more unique and challenging sound.

“I’m sure we have just finished our best, most adventurous album to date. We dug incredibly deep, challenged ourselves and recorded a record I’m positive we could never again replicate.”

Gina Gleason, who took over guitar duties from Pete Adams in 2017, added: “As a longtime Baroness listener, it is exciting to have created something new while still maintaining a deep love and understanding of the band’s roots.

“To say that the making of this record was quite a journey would be an understatement. We are beyond excited to share this experience and music with everyone!” 

Baroness will return to the road next month in support of Gold & Grey (opens in new tab), which is now available to pre-order. Find further details below.
