Bedemon

Bedemon was off-shoot of Pentagram. The band was an outlet for the songwriting of sometime Pentagram guitarist Randy Palmer. Palmer and drummer Geof O'Keefe recorded a series of demos throughout the '70s, most featuring bassist Mike Matthews and singer Bobby Liebling, but because Palmer never wanted to pursue Bedemon as a serious act, the group never recorded a proper studio album. After years of having the tapes bootlegged, a proper collection was issued in 2005, 3 years after Palmer had been killed in a car crash. Geof O'Keefe and Mike Matthews plan to continue the band.

The name "Bedemon" was formed from a combination of "Behemoth" and "Demon", which had been Palmer's inital ideas for group's moniker.
