Starting life in the early 1970s, US legends Pentagram is one of the most enduring underground bands in heavy metal history. Influenced by British bands The Groundhogs & Black Sabbath, their own take on Doom Metal has subsequently influenced everyone from Paradise Lost to Cathedral. Though the band line-up has changed many times over the years, enigmatic vocalist Bobby Liebling remains at the helm, with Pentagram now widely-regarded as a true cult band with a fanbase transcending whole generations.

‘Relentless’ was the band’s debut album & was originally self-released in 1985 as ‘Pentagram’ – later to be renamed & released by Peaceville in 1993, after a long search for a suitable record label. With its numerous timeless heavy metal anthems & the distinguishable voice of Bobby Liebling eerily ringing out, ‘Relentless’ remains the most iconic release of the bands studio output & a staple of the entire heavy doom genre.
