Virginia doom metal veterans Pentagram were set to tour Australia and New Zealand for the first time next month, but the tour has been called off. As Lambgoat points out, the shows are now “on hiatus” after journalist and activist Sherele Moody and her organization the Red Heart Campaign brought renewed attention to Pentagram frontman Bobby Liebling’s 2017 conviction for abusing a vulnerable adult, stemming from a violent attack on his 87-year-old mother. Liebling was sentenced to 18 months in prison and three years’ probation for the crime, and Pentagram toured without him at the time.
