Pantera has one of the wildest stories in metal. They were an obscure hair metal band in the late 80s and for some reason just knew to reinvent themselves as this band. One of the founders of a new metal sound, groove metal. I can't think of any other band who was able to do this.

The seeds were there. You can hear it in Projects in The Jungle and Power Metal. They just needed Phil and also not kid themselves pretending to be glam when they were clearly not.

Dimebag is a riff master and his solos masterful. Goddamn Electric is another great Pantera song

RIP Dime (guitars) and Vinnie (drums). And yes, as teens in the early 90s, our parents did often wonder what it was we listened to. Pantera started off as a glam metal band like Motley Crue, Poison, etc. When Phil (vocals) was hired, that's when the sound changed. I'll be seeing the current Pantera lineup play this Friday with Metallica at AT&T Stadium. Metallica performs a two night set on this tour and this weekend is in Arlington, TX. Which also happens to coincide with Dime's birthday, and to play in his home town.

That whole concert must've been insane. The vibes just from the video seemed insane, and I know first hand how much ambient energy there was at a Pantera show back in the day.

"We're taking over this town" His voice is really THAT deep. Even deeper. The fact that he could reach those high notes with it in Cemetery Gates back in the day is a testament to his versatility as a singer. Anyway, I'm actually quite surprised you haven't reacted to their live performance of DOMINATION just yet. That's quite a staple for a lot of music reaction channels. You should give it a go. Like seriously. It'll blow your minds. Or one of your discs. 😅

You won't find a tighter band than Pantera!!! They came and conquered the metal scene!!! Nobody did it better!!!!

Oh YESSSS!! 🥰🥰🥰 Pantera makes me think of my dad (RIP). 💙💙💙 Whenever he finished his chemo treatments, I'd blast Pantera on our one hour drive home and he would come ALIVE in that back seat, no matter how weak he was from the chemo. He would JAM OUT, and when we would get home, he would say "Thanks Nae" with the biggest smile. Then he would go inside and have the best nap ever. 😂 I grew up listening to Pantera, and I also would hear my dad play their music on guitar (among many other bands). Thanks for reminding me of my dad and all the memories shared with him. 💗

"Domination" Moscow 91. After the fall of the USSR the students revolted, one of their conditions to play nice was a western rock concert. It was AC/DC Metallica, and Pantera. 1.6 Million kids showed up.

"Domination". Live version from Russia. I believe it was in the late 90s. They and other major bands were there for what I believe was the first concert of this type of music in Russia. There were over a million people in attendance. If lyrics are important to you, you might want to have them readily available. I couldn't tell you what he's saying 99% of the time.

The last time I met Vinnie Paul Abbott was at Home Depot in Arlington, TX on June 12th, 2018. I have pics. Little did I know he would be gone 10 days later. He had a house up on the hill just a couple of miles from mine. He was so cool and laid to rest next to his brother "Dimebag" Darrell at Moore Memorial Gardens in Arlington. Vinnie was wearing a Van Halen necklace when I talked with him. Eddie Van Halen was at Darrell's funeral and the guitar from VH ll is in his grave there. I remember seeing Vinnie & Darrell and the boys at small clubs around Dallas/Ft. Worth before they hit it big! Anyone from around here knew they would be huge in metal !!

Panera concerts were always so much fun. The mosh pits were intense, the crowd was super hyper. I remember one concert where it was in a stadium, the entire floor was standing only. I forget what song it was, but as soon as it started, mosh pits popped up ALL over the entire floor. Never seen that at any other concert.

Best description of Pantera I ever heard was, "Their music is like C.P.R. with a sledge hammer!"

“Primal Concrete Sledge” is another banger from that album.

Pantera is my favorite metal band of all time. Phil Anselmo has such a badass voice. Vinnie Paul such a powerful drummer. Dimebag probably one of the best guitarists ever. Rex, can't forget about him. Such an amazing bassist.

Back in the 90s I just happened to walk into a small club did not know who is performing turns out it was Pantera on their cowboys from hell tour... I was 5 feet away from dime ..

Please, please next rory gallagher bad penny

Pantera was a Dallas area band and for years this was the intro song for the Dallas Stars hockey team. They even wrote a song for the Stars.

Raise you hand if you never thought you’d see Pantera or Helloween here… AND ON THE SAME DAY!!! 🙋🏻‍♂️😂😂😂

I was at a Pantera show in Columbus, Ohio, at Polaris amphitheater. The mosh pit was so big that anyone close to it were getting sucked in against their will. A guy next to us said he was going to the pit as soon as the band hit the stage. Two hours later, he came back with a broken leg.

"You see us come and altogether run for cover... we're taking over this town" YES!! \m/

I first heard Pantera when I was 10, they were like nothing I'd ever heard. they changed my whole perspective. Now at age 39, I still listen to them frequently. I'd recommend Amber listen to Planet Caravan (their cover of Black Sabbath). You'll be surprised it's the same band you've just heard, honest!!

Saw Pantera in '92 in a small club in Vegas. Wildest crowd I was ever involved in. It was Amazing!

I recommend "the sleep" as a little more mellow, almost a ballad... but with literally the best solo ever made. "Mouth for war" is another banger.

I met drummer Vinny Paul at the rainbow in LA 2 months before he died. Nicest guy. HE offered to take a pic with me. Shook his Hand and told him I loved his work.

I knew them in the glam days. Awesome guys. Tragic story.

Jumping into the crowd is called "stage diving." If the other fans pass you around it's called "crowd surfing." Singer is Phil Anselmo. The band is from Texas. They started out a typical metal band playing power metal and I think they wore makeup for a short time like glam metal bands, (hair bands). They eventually found their sound and invented "groove metal."

Jay and Amber I've never really listened to Pantera but this was fire. I loved it.

I’m from Texas we all new and know Pantera, thank you Texas misses the guys

Yea this album came on the scene and mayhem erupted. 🤘😝🤘

I like all sorts of things from 50s to 00s, but THIS is MY FAVORITE BAND, Pantera don't mess around.. never sold out for the $$, if anything strived to just get heavier. The relationship they had with the fans, never seen anything like it. Such a shame there will be no more from these guys. This is a great song, but its far from the first thing I would set out to listen to from those last 6 albums.

I saw them live in Tulsa in '91. This is an accurate depiction of that concert.

Saw them in 1995. Will see them in Dallas and Austin This week for their Tribute shows. “Domination” in Moscow is an epic live performance. So raw and heavy.

‘91… freshman year of high school, it’s when I truly began to rock

U should introduce Pantera - WALK to mum its a great song with a strong message and there some crazy stage diving in that official video too.

A few decades later and I still think this is one of their best songs ever! I only really liked the songs where Phil actually sang...not a fan of the fast screaming vocals in a lot of their songs...but the ones like this...showcase how great Phil's voice was.

I've seen it in rock articles several times but the term and birth of "Heavy Metal" comes from two bands back in the late 60's. The band Iron Butterfly with their song "Ina Goda Davida" coming in at a hair over 17 minutes long has everything a rock song needs! The second comes from Steppin' Wolf with the song "Born To Be Wild". In the song there is a line that goes... "I like smokin' Lightening Heavy Metal thunder"... and from the combination of these two bands a newer darker, harder rock n roll emerged into the world. **(edit) Highly recommend checking out both if you haven't. Peace, Love, and Rock 'N' Roll

Groove Metal. They are the best of their Genre. One of the best guitarists and drummers. Their music is hard, but has awesome riffs and beats. Their album Far Beyond Driven went to number one in the mid nineties. Alot of hits, but my fave is "I'm Broken".

This was the tune that got me into Pantera. Went on to get Cowboys From Hell, Vulgar Display of Power and Far Beyond Driven albums the following day. I had no face left afterwards as it was pulverised by their music

This is Phil pre pubescent , completely different vocals in later years

I can’t wait to see y’all’s reaction to Pantera!! Lol they started out as a Glam rock hair band in the late 80’s!

I saw Pantera at the Woldorf in San Francisco. Corn opened for them. I was right there at the rail. 6 ft away they were rockin. One of the best concerts I've been to

The lead singer's scream at 6:15 blew me away first time I heard it. Never heard anything like it.

This came out in 1991 i turned 11 and my metal head cousin bought the cassette tape for my birthday.. still listening to the same tape today

5 minutes alone is one of my favorite Pantera tracks

I'm 38 now my brother is 40 he plays guitar I play drums he started at 15 when he found Pantera then he got me into them (very easily by the way). Dimebag Darrell Abbott (Guitar) Vinnie Paul Abbott (Drums) these two are the reason me and my brother started in music they are my favorite metal band ever. Drag The Waters, 10's, Primal Concrete Sledge, F**king Hostile,The Great Southern Trendkill. All great tracks as well 😎👍

I love Amber’s face when he hits that “we’re taking over this town” part. Her face is almost like a disgust but not. Or maybe a confusion or wth is that type of face 🤣

Check out "In this river" by Black Label Society. Its a tribute to Pantera guitarist Dimebag. Wasn't wrote for him but the video is dedicated to the friendship between him and Zakk Wylde.

🎯 You’re correct Amber. I did listen to Pantera in my teenage years and my parents most definitely were worried about me.

If you enjoyed Kenny Rogers singing Lady, then you have to watch the duet with him and Lionel Richie; who wrote the song !

Has a family we are, hockey fans and our team is the Dallas Stars. And every time we score, parts of this song is played. Not only that, within a few seconds of this song, is what ushers the Stars they hit the ice to start the game!!

You both need to be introduced to Helmet. Like "In theMeantime", "Milquetoast" or "Unsung"

Finally!! More Pantera. I told you that riff was infectious. This is my absolute favorite Pantera song, never gets old and will always get turned up to 11. May I also suggest Domination live in Moscow and/or Mouth For War.

This feels like music Jay needs in his life. I’m happy for him
