Pentecost III
Pentecost III is an EP by the British doom metal band Anathema. It was recorded in 1994 but, due to a merging between labels Peaceville Records and Music For Nations, was not released until 1995. By this time, Darren White had been ousted from the band, whose remaining members were already working on their next album, The Silent Enigma. Pentecost III was re-issued as on one CD with The Crestfallen in 2001.

Notes
- The album's liner notes state that "Pentecost III is dedicated to Tony Doyle, to Lin Mari Lowles, and to all the people who shared the grief of the terrible tragedy that befell us all this year 1994". Tony and Lin were two old friends of Anathema. Tony died from heart complications in his early twenties and on the way to the funeral, Lin died in a traffic accident.
- The track "Memento Mori" contains the hidden track "Horses/666". On the Pentecost III/Crestfallen EP re-issue this hidden track is moved to the end of "They Die", the last track on the disc.
- Album artwork: painting by Frederic Leighton "Perseus and Andromeda", 1891.

gollark: I read about some other company trying to make newer supersonic planes, hopefully that goes somewhere.
gollark: Ah yes, very expensive time zone hacks.
gollark: I suppose they work as a more obvious reminder, though? Some people have (generally software-based) clock things which constantly count down life expectancy or something, which seems like a great way to generate existential crises.
gollark: You're always slightly aging, and can worry about *that* instead of specifically birthdays, until someone comes up with really good life-extension or immortality.
gollark: I had mine last month. It's not like you age suddenly one year at a time, though.
