(TeamRock Radio) Baroness have released a video about the making of their new album, Purple. It's the band's first release since 2012's Yellow & Green, and will be released on December 18 on the band's Abraxan Hymns label. In the video, the band talk about their approach to making the riffs an the new record.

"To do something new or interesting with this type of music is very, very difficult," says singer and guitarist John Baizley. "You gotta have two guitars. You gotta have a bass player and a drummer. That's how you define rock music. So by default, yes, we're a rock band. But here's the thing: we've never really felt the necessity to be pigeonholed, and we've never really felt any inclination to be part of anything other than our own thing."

"It's still rock. But with a question mark behind it," he adds. "What we're trying to do is write a stunning, beautiful, powerful, emotional, artistic creative rock record."

"It manages to rock pretty hard," says drummer Sebastian Thomson, "and yet be pretty f***ing catchy at the same time. It's very high energy, very aggressive." Watch the video here.
