This week we climb into the sub-basement for a look at the stumbling but triumphant 50-year history of D.C.-area doom overlords PENTAGRAM. Hear the uncanny testimony of unlikely internet sensation Bobby Liebling with stone-cold Pentagram classics spanning several decades, plus related bands Place of Skulls and The Limit, and tributes by Ogre, Bewitcher, Reverend Bizarre, Darkest Hour, and Gatecreeper.
