Pantera


Snake-Pit

Recommended Posts

For me their albums went better with each release with the exception of Reinventing the Steel which was just a tad weaker than The Great Southern Trendkill, still a great effort tho. Hope Vinnie and Phil will kiss up at the 10 year anniversary of Dimebag's death. Don't expect them to play together again, just don't blame Phil for Dime's death and give the fans closure.

I think Reinventing is their best after Vulgar. Tight as and the band just groove so tight.

I listened to them a lot in my teens, now I only listen to them when I'm at the gym. Same goes for Metallica and all other metal really.

I honestly doubt I could do a session at the gym without metal or some GN'R. I'd say Bomb First is probably the only thing that comes close.

Ha. He made a Pantera thread and posted 2 videos of 'Walk'

When really, a picture of a giant set of testicles would've sufficed :D
I've decreed a fatwa on you for that abhorrent utterance.

500 fatwas and a strongly worded letter from the Ayatollah wouldn't make Pantera any less a load of greasy metaller bollocks :lol:

GN'R at the gym? Gay.

I think there's something a bit lame per se, these people that just NEED music to workout. You either wanna do it or you don't and if you wanna do it you'll do it regardless, why this really gay ass bro-ccentric self hyping i dunno.

It's not a necessity at all, but it gives you a nice little boost.

Its So Easy into Nightrain was my treadmill jam always which then became Fight Fire with Fire into Ride the Lightning (yes I listen to whole albums at the gym, not playlists)

Yeah this. Just that little aggression you need.

I really liked them when I was around 15 or so, one of the few bands I liked at one point and don't anymore/grew out of- I'd had my fill by the time Great Southern Trendkill came out.

I don't own any of their albums anymore, but they were on of the few bands that did a very good job of covering Sabbath and come to think of it Far Beyond Driven is a fucking good album.

A real shame how Dimebag got murdered.

See thats the attitude, i just hate the whole roaring meathead thing, needing metal and your spot partner screaming at you, my bro was like down his gym some spot partner was shouting his mate 'COME ON YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!' And all this shit, he'd be fishing the bar out of his fuckin' arse if that was me.

Hammer Smashed Face is a necessity for pillow presses.

They have a great Planet Caravan cover too.

Pantera were one of the great metal acts, Darrell was a hell of a guitarist, he definitely transcends the mere 'metal redneck' box folk like to throw out. Southern Trendkill is actually my fave Pantera record, the aggression in that album is ridiculous and Anselmo recorded his vocals far away from the same studio as the other if I remember correct. Down fronted by Phil and with Rex in for a while are a great band too, a lot more Zeppelin than the Pantera stuff but some superb songs.

Dime was so amazing. So much emotion, melody, heavy without losing direction, variety, groove, and had the tone too. His riffs and solos were full of excitement. You don't have to like metal to recognize he was truly great. What a loss. Oh and I still like Pantera.
