Aqua Blue Vinyl LP with limited edition release. About the album Between records like 'Relentless' and 'Show ‘Em How,' Pentagram have never wanted for self-awareness in terms of album titles. The gauntlet thrown down by 'Lightning in a Bottle' is very much in this tradition. The 10th Pentagram album sees founding frontman and doom figurehead Bobby Liebling leading a new cast of players that includes guitarist/producer Tony Reed (Mos Generator, Big Scenic Nowhere, etc.), drummer Henry Vasquez (Legions of Doom, Saint Vitus, Blood of the Sun, etc.) and bassist Scooter Haslip (Mos Generator, Saltine). It would be hard to overstate the energy the new band brings to songs like “Live Again,” “Solve the Puzzle” or “In the Panic Room,” but 'Lightning in a Bottle' is unmistakably a Pentagram record, of course in Liebling’s unremittingly charismatic performance and the groove conjured to back it. 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 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. It’s not all brooding, even if it is doom. 'Thundercrest' is brash and the nodding title-track brings to mind past glories without actually reliving them. The central message, any way you want to look at it, is that no matter how much the band has been through over the last half-century-plus, they remain a singular force. 'Lightning in a Bottle' might not be the first Pentagram reboot, but it brings fresh ideas and dynamic to one of doom’s most classic, formative acts. Track listing TRACKLISTING: 01. LIVE AGAIN 02. IN THE PANIC ROOM 03 I SPOKE TO DEATH 04. DULL PAIN 05. LADY HEROIN 06. I'LL CERTAINLY SEE YOU IN HELL 07. THUNDERCREST 08. SOLVE THE PUZZLE 09. SPREAD YOUR WINGS 10. LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE 11.
