Pentagram, from Arlington, Virginia, Usa, is one of the earliest doom bands around. Having been around in one form or another since 1971, it’s safe to say that Pentagram had a big impact on Sabbath inspired Doom Metal that was to follow over the next decade. The band also strongly intertwines with the band Bedemon and is sometimes seen as one and the same. Pentagram are considered to be one of the all time classics by many older fans for understandable reasons. Their music can perhaps best be described as proto-doom with a strong resemblance to the first Black Sabbath releases. The unique vocals of Bobby Leibling make sure they have a very unique sound. The band’s ’70s output was sparse (only a few 7″ EPs) but now considered by many fans to be legendary and Liebling, who at the time handled the bulk of the songwriting, had a large number of songs that went unrecorded or released at the time. The album, I’ll Certainly See You In Hell: Studio Sessions & Rehearsals 1972-1975, is a rare album that collects rare recordings from those early days of the band. Tracks like Run My Course, Wheel Of Fortune and When The Screams Come, capturing the band’s raw sound from the early to mid-1970s.
