Baroness play an eclectic type heavy metal.......for the most part sludge metal / progressive metal but can be very melodic. This band comes from Savannah, Georgia, and they are about as far as you can get from southern rock. They have toured with the likes of Mastodon and Metallica.

The artwork on the albums stands out.......it was done by John Baizley, the vocalist. He has also done artwork for other bands, too.

That's the only album of theirs that I own, and it's a good one. Try to Disappear is my favorite song off of that one.

The production on that album does it no justice, but I mean, I've listened to stuff that sounds like it was recorded with a toaster, so it's all good.

I actually like a raw sound, unless it comes from a toaster or tin can....lol. Sometimes over production isn't that good either.

Yellow and Green is my favourite because it felt the most diverse for Baroness.
