About the album

"Lightning in a Bottle" marks the triumphant return of Pentagram, led by the iconic Bobby Liebling. This album is a testament to the band’s enduring influence on the doom metal scene. The new lineup, featuring guitarist and producer Tony Reed, brings a fresh dynamism to the sound. Songs like "Live Again" and "In the Panic Room" exude an invigorating energy, while tracks like "Lady Heroin" delve into profound personal themes. Recorded under Reed’s meticulous guidance, the album bridges Pentagram's storied past with a vibrant present. It is a sonic journey that captures the essence of doom while exploring new creative frontiers.

The album not only revisits but reinvents the motifs that have defined Pentagram's legacy. Tracks such as "Thundercrest" and "Solve the Puzzle" showcase a band reinvigorated and ready to embrace both their history and future. The title track itself evokes memories of past glories without descending into mere nostalgia. As their tenth studio release, it stands as both a continuation and revitalization of their mythic status within the genre. "Lightning in a Bottle" is not merely an album—it is an experience that reaffirms Pentagram's place at the pinnacle of doom metal.
