| 4.0 excellent | Athom EMERITUS | July 6th 12 | The idea of a double album from Baroness was somewhat off putting at first, as each of their albums are so full of twists, turns, build ups and just plain old booming mischief that 18 tracks of it would be like running a marathon after finishing a triathlon. Yet thankfully Yellow and Green works. If one had been following the band it wouldn't be that much of a surprise that it does. Baizley has stated not only that the records would lack "edge", so to speak, but also would be much more straightforward. The songwriting is direct and to the point and Baizley's vocals are no longer burly mountain man shouts, but instead he shows off his clean vocal skills throughout. The sound is not only more "rock" oriented, but at times shows flashes of bands such as Cave In during their Perfect Pitch Black era in both mood and approach. It is definitely an interesting outing that is propelled by equal parts 70's influence and modern swagger. Fans of the riff oriented Baroness of old might be off put and understandably so, but for those looking for a quality rock and roll record look no further.

| 5.0 classic | bigguytoo9 | July 6th 12 | Baroness have crafted a masterpiece in their Discog. The songs hit hard without being super heavy, the guitar work is stunning. It's almost like a Metal Pink Floyd. Seeing these guys live with Meshuggah back in May really proved their worth for me.

| 5.0 classic | ArisLBM | August 28th 12 | My favorite release by this band and I consider it to be an instant classic. I personally love the chill/softer side of metal, and this album satisfies that need. While this album does tend to focus more on the experimental/softer side of the band, there are still a fair share of heavy/sludgy moments on this album. However the heavy/sludgy moments on this album don't seem as heavy as on past releases by this band, which is not a bad thing at all. If I had to rate each album on its own I would give "Yellow" a 5/5 and "Green" a 4.75/5. "Yellow" is the stronger side of the album. Every song is a standout track, containing its own identity and diversity. While "Green" is still a great album, the flow of the album isn't as smooth as "Yellow". The songs on "Green" are also not as memorable as songs on "Yellow". That's not to take away from this album at all. I love every single song on this ambitious double-album. There aren't any major flaws that I can point out.

| 4.0 excellent | Tw1ster | July 6th 12 | First off, I can see why hardcore Baroness fans would hate this, but I actually quite enjoy it. It's pretty funny to see these guys follow Mastodon in almost every way in terms of career paths. Not to say this or any other Baroness works sound like Mastodon albums but just the way they went from "Brutal" to more accessible with each album. With Yellow And Green you get pure emotion which was lacking in previous efforts. You can tell this album comes straight from the heart and has pain and anguish driven right into it. Great listen, but not for everyone

| 3.0 good | troyofyort | June 27th 23 | Too Many songs to bite off for a band thats hard to appreciate on anything but the best sound systems

| 3.5 great | kheman1317 | October 17th 19 | A highly enjoyable album but with very less replay value. The vocals were decent but was nothing out of extraordinary and even at some points they were off putting, for me.

| 3.5 great | Erwann S. EMERITUS | June 19th 19 | Great stoner/road trip record. It does not contain the most transcendent Baroness (even though Green Theme is a blast), but kudos on not having any filler.

| 4.0 excellent | If being sexy is a crime, Im under arrest for selling ketamine to 5th graders | November 5th 17 | I'm very conflicted with this rating, because Yellow is probably my favorite album by Baroness. It's a 4.5, it's like classic Baroness with heavy Pink Floyd influences and the dynamic variations their music really needed, but on the other hand Green is barely a 3.0, it's a good introduction with half an hour of filler after it.rI give it a 4.0 because I really like yellow and it's usually the only one I listen to.

| 4.0 excellent | Alabaster Jones | June 8th 17 | Baroness seemed to get some flack for the changes they made from the progressive sludge of Red Album and Blue Record to the psychedelic, hazy, and poppy stoner rock of Yellow & Green, and while that's understandable, if you'd been following them since their career began, it's not all that strange of an evolution. While the album does feel just a bit bloated, overall this double record is full of fantastic moments, whether it's the heartfelt tribute to a friend fallen to a heroin addiction in "March To The Sea", the acid-fueled "Sea Lungs", or the anthemic "Collapse". One of the best things about it, though, is that the instrumentals are very on point, and always have something to add to the records rather than just being there to take up space, especially in the case of the incredibly beautiful "Stretchmarker". The band would trim the length and make this sound more bombastic on the addictive Purple, but as it stands, Yellow & Green was an important step in the band's development and a gorgeous take on the more ambitious side of arena rock.

| 4.0 excellent | irrevrent | May 1st 13 | I'm really sad that this might be their swan song. I was taken aback at first but after taking another listen to the albums they don't suck by any means but there was no way yellow and green could have lived up to all the hype surrounding them. They took some risks and delivered something that was unexpected but ultimately they are a thing of beauty.

| 3.5 great | TRMshadow | February 8th 13 | I can definitely hear the change in direction. Instead of the sludgy prog-metal of their first 2 albums, it's more of a the middle-of-the-road prog-rock sound. While at first it doesn't sound all that appealing, a couple tracks into the double-album Baroness start making the listen worth while. While not perfect, the album just works. 3.6/5

| 0.0 | Camstr | October 11th 12 | This double album is an amazing treat. While very different from their previous releases, Yellow and Green is still obviously stronger and more focused.

Bump |
| 3.0 good | Fernando Alves | August 8th 12 | There's nothing really wrong here, solid songwriting and some pretty enjoyable songs like "March to the Sea", "Sea Lungs" or "Eula" but it lacks some serious replay value, at least for me.

| 3.5 great | bornthetravestyofman | July 14th 12 | A mixed bag that is still a little satisfying after all is said and done.
Bump |
| 3.5 great | 8ctavarium | July 6th 12 | Every colour is different to each other exactly like Baroness' albums are. This time we get
interesting mixture of clear, catchy tunes with some more blurred and sludgy guitar work,
but overall not so sharp and heavy like on previous records. Yellow side seems realy
excellent for me while on the green one I have experienced some kind of boredom sometimes.
Anyway I consider it as a really great record. Not red, neither blue. It's just yellow and
green and listeners probably will have to accept that.
