So far this isn't too great.

Right now I'm caught between a high 3 or a low 3.5. The music isn't bad, it's just a tad flat. And the album is way overlong.

I don't know, maybe I'm overrating it because I usually listen to the colours separately cause of time restraints, so I don't experience it dragging on in full.
Also, the amount of filler here is kinda unforgivable, especially in green.

I didn't think there was any filler until the last three quarters of green.
THE DUDE JUST CANT WRITE MELODIES OR STAY ON PITCH.

I don't know if I even want to call it subpar. I mean, minus a few isolated parts, it's not bad, and to be perfectly honest I don't mind Baizley's vocals. It just seems so...unmemorable, especially compared to Blue and Red.
That said, I still like Eula.

He doesn't really stay on pitch throughout the whole album, but I actually really dug the melodies on this for what it's worth

Of course Potsy. What I mean is that I don't know if I exactly think the material here is inferior to the other stuff they've written so much as its not as much in my sphere of enjoyment.
Or maybe I'm just being verbose because of my faux-prog-sludge fanboyism.

Listening to it with an open mind, it is pretty inferior. Mostly because of boring songs that don't go anywhere and dem vox.

Oh and the production is shit but that doesn't have anything to do with how the music was written/performed

I just feel like if the band started with yellow/green and made red/blue after, everybody would be
SHOUTING about how the band has improved.

Also vocals were never the strongest aspect of Baroness' sound. It was their instrumentation. They totally emphasized their weakest feature and dumbed down their best asset.

Kind of silly how they tried to make a more "drum and vocal" based album, and the guitar work is still the highlight.

That being said, I like listening to march to the sea live on youtube. His vocals are better and you don't have to deal with the unpleasant production

I don't want to pay for this, but I've been trying to cut back on my torrenting.
It took me until this year to even enjoy Baroness and I really like Red and Blue nowadays.
But, I heard Take My Bones Away and it totally took my Baroness bone away...
If that song is truly an indication of how these albums pan out, I think it may be in my best interest to pass on this
release.
Thoughts?

Yellow is all in the same vein of "Take My Bones Away". However, you probably won't find a song on either side that matches those stupidly awkward melodies(ugh the chorus). Baroness really try to bring the catchy-ness on the Yellow side through vocal melody rather than instrumentation. "Take My Bones Away" is the heaviest and most complex of the bunch, which may give you more perspective.
Green is lighter and simpler in comparison. I find half of those songs to be flat out boring.
I think you would like the record as whole more than "Take My..." but not enough to warrant a buy. Definitely don't buy this without hearing the album in it's entirety. If your still curious, go hit up their official stream.

Lots of spot-on comments here. I really couldn't warm up to this because the songwriting is quite hit-or-miss. The vocals could be more fleshed out too. I don't think they're memorable at all. This is a half-assed double LP imo. It really would be better if they trimmed down the fat (especially directionless mellow songs from the Green disc) and released a one-disc LP.
