In 1985, the band released their first studio album, featuring “Death Row” material and the lineup of Liebling on vocals, Griffin on guitar, Swaney on bass, and Rose on drums. Initially self-titled, the album was often referred to as Relentless due to it being renamed when it was reissued by Peaceville Records in 1993. The record’s obscure lyrical themes helped Pentagram’s reputation as a classic doom metal style band. After recording their second album, Day of Reckoning , the band folded. In 1989, 1970s-era members Mayne and Palmer rejoined Liebling with the addition of Ted Feldman on guitar and John Cook on drums. The band was working on recording a third LP, but shortly after their first performance in Maryland , they split up in 1990.
