    John Baizley of Baroness on his paintings and why his band resisted having an official website

    Baroness (due tomorrow night at the Ogden Theatre) is a band from Savannah, Georgia, known for making a true alloy of psychedelic metal, the precision of prog, and punk attitude.

    Bill Kelliher of Mastodon: "We started the band, got in the van and started driving"
