Baroness release provocative “Shock Me” video

Baroness, who are on tour in North American, have released a video for “Shock Me”: https://youtu.be/t6OCeW6FVvY.

Filmed in rural Pennsylvania, the video brings to life a number of elements from the incredible artwork Baroness albums are known for.  The clip was directed by Don Tyler and John Baizley with art direction by Karen Jerzyk.

Baroness have also named the openers for the band’s highly-anticipated tour with Youth Code on all non-festival U.S. dates, Mutoid Man opening shows in Eastern Canada and Heiress handling dates in Western Canada. Baroness recently wrapped up an extensive European tour, which was hailed as “defiant, dominant and full of heart” (Prog) and a “devilishly complex take on power rock ‘n’ roll” (London in Stereo).

The tour, which includes stops at the Sasquatch, Project Pabst and Shaky Knees festivals, wraps up at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles on June 3.  The band has also been confirmed for Psycho Las Vegas on Aug. 28.
