Stream: 'If I Have To Wake Up (Would You Stop the Rain?)' by Baroness
sean by Sean Adams December 16th, 2015

Today, in the run up to the release of their forthcoming fourth album Purple (out Dec 18th), Baroness are exclusively revealing all the tracks with artwork across the globe.

DiS is pleased to be the rock behemoths partner on this and share the album's penultimate track 'If I Have To Wake Up (Would You Stop the Rain?)'.

Before we get to the song, the band sent us this message to pass onto you to explain a little more about today's big reveal:

Our new record comes out in a few days. We’d like to take a moment now to recognize and give thanks to some of our friends who helped us transform our new album “Purple,” from a collection of songs we wrote in a basement in Philadelphia, into something more internally meaningful than we had anticipated. It was not a simple process, and we most definitely could not have created this without the extreme dedication and help from some of our incredibly talented friends. Today we’d like you to meet Marald van Haasteren, an incredibly talented visual artist, who we have the great fortune of calling a true friend. He created all the internal drawings for “Purple,” and all of the images accompanying our YouTube tracks. There are even some which won’t be revealed until next year, when we have some special occasions to release them...

If you're looking for more from the album, try looking up #FINDPURPLE across the web.
