Four Stroke Baron announce new album ‘Classics’

FOUR STROKE BARON have announced a new album!

Titled Classics, the upcoming album from the heavy alternative progressive outfit is their third full-length record and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Prosthetic Records.

Having streamlined into a duo, embracing their intense relationship, which they put down to vibrating at the same frequency, they gave themselves permission to go down whatever weird rabbit holes presented themselves. The only rule they set was that there had to be a memorable melody to each and every track. They then enlisted the only person they knew who could add the extra layer of embellishment that the album required. Enter Devin Townsend. The added textures brought in by Townsend during mixing elevate these ten tracks to another level.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “this is the best thing we’ve ever done, and we’re calling it right now that every song is a future classic. We told Devin Townsend to go as hard as possible when doing the sound design and adding textures, which upped the insanity factor 100x.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming album; Friday Knight. The new music video was first premiered via Revolver.
