Troma figured the last thread ran it's course so I've been nominated to start a new one. So to get started here's a song titled with Troma's favourite director:
Yeah, weird discovery, here. Doom band that was around in the early days of Sabbath but never released an album until a few years ago?
I bought a Pentagram album called Be Forewarned a long time ago. Don't remember being all that into it. I'm listening to it right now. Not too bad. What's the best Pentagram album to go for? I'm not too educated on the early doom stuff. I thought the first 2 Trouble albums were really good, though.
First Pentagram album, sometimes called Relentless, is the best. So dark and out of step with what was in vogue for metal in the mid 80s. Took Pentagram over a decade for various reasons to finally release their debut LP. Crazy. A lot of people also really dig First Daze Here, which compiles all their 70s stuff together. It's decent, but kinda overrated tho. As I said, a lot of people really love it and call it their best, so it might be up your alley too. It does have one of their classic songs, "Living in a Ram's Head," which was actually released as a single in the '70, surprisingly. The singer from Pentagram is the same guy singing on Bedemon's 70s stuff, in case you aren't aware. His wife is like 50 years younger than him too, which blows my mind.
If you're up to exploring early doom further, you need Saint Vitus in your life.
