BAEST Return With New Album Colossal By Larry Petro, News Monkey Tuesday, April 15, 2025 @ 5:51 AM
Danish death metal commando BAEST will be unleashing its fourth studio album, Colossal, on August 15, 2025 via Century Media Records! To celebrate the upcoming offering, the band is now sharing the crushing new single, "Misfortunate Son (feat. ORM)", which can be found along with an official music video created by Moshmallows on KNAC.COM HERE.
Produced by Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio (Heaven Shall Burn, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Haunted), the album contains nine tracks across 42 minutes, including the already released singles "Colossus" and "Imp Of The Perverse", as well as an upcoming single with guest vocal features by Jesper Binzer of D-A-D on "King Of The Sun".
BAEST explains about the Colossal album and the band's current activities as follows: "Paying homage to the heavy metal roots of our music, we wanted to incorporate fast, classic and rocking riffs. This album showcases our passion for melody and a new direction for our death metal. Keeping the energy of former releases and adding new flavours to the inferno, Colossal stands out as an honest, original and exciting release. Recording it over the course of 2 years at Antfarm Studio with Tue Madsen has been a different but exciting process, leaving a lot of space in between material released off the album, with the two first singles "Colossus" and "Imp Of The Perverse" being almost a year old by now. We found that giving songs more time to grow felt right, and we also had to reinvent our own style and sound in that process, which leads to our satisfaction with Colossal - it's a broad album sound wise, and we feel this is the essence of BAEST. Playing some of the new tracks live on our recent tour with Danish rock legends D-A-D was helpful in cementing the appeal of the new tracks and helped us finish the album recordings between those shows. Next up, we embark on our first ever U.S./North America run supporting ARCH ENEMY, and we are following this tour up with a ton of European festivals. This will be the perfect platform to show the new material and get feedback from the fans - see you on the road!"
Adds BAEST about the new song: ""Misfortunate Son" is the newest single release from our upcoming 4th album Colossal. Recorded at Antfarm Studio with Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Heaven Shall Burn, Meshuggah), it brings forth a blend of melody and brutality. The song showcases our passion for classic heavy metal riffing while incorporating the signature catchiness we always strive for with BAEST! We brought our Danish heroes ORM to add some eerie vocals, contributing a darker mood to the track..."
In addition, BAEST will be laying waste to North America next week for the first time ever as they embark on the "Blood Dynasty" tour in support of ARCH ENEMY w/ FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY and THROWN INTO EXILE! The band will launch their destruction in San Diego, CA next week, on April 15, and will batter audiences across the continent through May 10 in Stroudsburg, PA. The full itinerary can be found below.
