Pentagram announce new album ‘Lightning In A Bottle’

PENTAGRAM have announced a new album!

Titled Lightning In A Bottle, the upcoming album from the American doom metal legends is the long-awaited follow-up to 2015’s Curious Volume, and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Heavy Psych Sounds.

Recorded with Reed at the helm, Lightning In A Bottle recalls the best of what has allowed PENTAGRAM to cast an influence across decades and generations of musicians, bands, and worshippers of riff, and as just their third studio release in the last 15 years, it’s not a moment to neglect as they dig into a cut like Dull Pain or Lady Heroin, the latter of which is a naked reconciliation on the part of band figurehead Bobby Liebling with a lifelong addiction to opiates that’s become an inextricable part of the PENTAGRAM story. As he wonders in the lyrics, “Lady Heroin, have I seen the last of you?” it becomes difficult to know whether the separation would be through sobriety or death, and that ambiguity becomes part of what makes the song so striking.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming album; Thundercrest.
