Baroness: My Top 10 Songs

From their sludge metal origins to their recents forays into lush alternative rock, this Savannah-spawning band has practically reinvented their sound on every album. But unlike some of their contemporary Southern metal acts, they’ve found a way to keep melody and atmosphere at the forefront of their music. These are my favorite songs from the elemental, eldritch rockers.

*This list will be updated in the event of any future (including posthumous) releases.
