Pentastar: In the Style of Demons is the third full-length studio album by doom metal band Earth. It features a more rock-oriented sound than their earlier drone doom work, although in a very minimalist style. "Peace in Mississippi" is a cover of the Jimi Hendrix song. The original vinyl release of this album features an alternate take of "Peace in Mississippi".
