Beginning life as Pallas Athene, they dropped the latter moniker and began hitting the club circuit at the beginning of a grassroots revival of full-blown progressive rock; which, at the time, was extremely unfashionable due to the overwhelming influence of pop and New Wave. They eventually secured a successful headlining run at London’s Marquee Club (a hotbed for the neo-progressive revival). A highlight of their set at that time and also a highlight of the early Marquee shows (until the Marquee threatened to ban the band if they did not stop playing it) was a track called “The Ripper”. A fifteen-minute epic about child abuse, insanity, rape and murder, the climax of “The Ripper” featured lead singer Euan Lowson dressed half as an old man, half as a woman, acting out a chilling rape on stage (it should be remembered that the infamous Yorkshire Ripper case was still, at the time, a relatively fresh news item).
Releasing a self-produced LP entitled Arrive Alive (recorded in Scotland in 1981), Pallas was courted by EMI records (who had just signed contemporaries Marillion) and went into the studio with Yes/ELP engineer Eddie Offord to record the LP that would become The Sentinel.
