I have been crazy about this band ever since discovering them.A great act,and one I HIGHLY recommend seeing live(I saw them on their Red Album tour and the ticket costs 8 bucks,what a bargain!).They don't rehearse because they play about 300 dates a year and it shows,these guys have some serious chops. -------------  |

Yes,it's some art from the Dark Tower graphic novels that were made by Marvel with heavy involvement from Stephen King.Being such a huge fan of the series of books I thought the graphic novels would suck but they are great and the art work is superb. ------------- |

Baroness is one of those bands that once more people discover, will become a really big deal! Red Album was the ALBUM OF THE MONTH on our site, and Blue Record is a great follow up! Never saw them live though and hope to at some point. Baroness rocks!!! ------------- www.Loudtrax.com |

I saw them open for Opeth and the sound was pretty crappy. You could tell they had good stuff, but it was hard to appreciate it.
I like their album covers alot.  ------------- You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all. |

All cover art is done by Baroness singer John Baizley.He has also done a bunch of covers for other bands.
Look at pages 236 & 237 of this thread,I posted a bunch of his art:

Their debut full-length?
They made two killer ep's before that simply called First and Second. ------------- |

Yeah I have the debut full length "Red Album". Would you recommend the EP's over their second album? -Jeff -------------

| Both albums are awesome, missed them live in Kansas City last week. One of my recent favorites, a mixture of stoner /prog metal? |

Like David said,I would get Blue Record next.
The band recently remastered First and Second,and included a live disc with them called Live at Roadburn 2009.If you can find that get it. ------------- |

Have both albums and was lucky enough to see them live. The Red Album is a great Prog release. They are supporting Metallica on the Australian leg of it's current tour. More excited to see Baroness.  ------------- As I get older, I like my songs to last longer. |
