Denmark-based Death Metal band Baest have announced the upcoming release of their 4th studio album, Colossal, on August 15th, 2025 via Century Media Records.
Produced with Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio (Heaven Shall Burn, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Haunted, etc.), the album contains 9 tracks including the already released singles “Colossus” and “Imp Of The Perverse” as well as upcoming singles with guest vocals by Jesper Binzer of D-A-D on “King Of The Sun” and by ORM on “Misfortunate Son”. The album’s artwork was created by Solomacello.
The single and video for “Misfortunate Son” are out now with a video by Moshmallows.
Baest comments about the “Colossal” album:
“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 US/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!”
