Thank you for making a music thread. (that doesn't have to do with weiner metal) Star and flag.

I wish Phil got shot instead of Dimebag.

One of my all time favorites. I know that on this forum most people hate everything about these guys, but for me, CFH to FBD are the beez neez. they always had good music and a great guitar sound. That said...hate away...........

I've always disliked Phil but never minded Pantera too much. Your average Pantera fanboy pissed me off more than Phil any day.

Walk on home fagget!

Yeah, I'm one of those annoying Glamtera fans. I will say that I appreciate and understand the importance and such of the more well known Pantera (even I can't resist headbanging), but I prefer the glam era.

Hot and Heavy

Just go home and listen to Judas Priest Faggot.

Projects In The Jungle and I Am The Night are solid and fun albums. Metal Magic doesn't quite do it for me (Biggest Part Of Me is probably weakest excuse for a power ballad I've ever heard)

No!

When I was a kid, Pantera was the first band I encountered that had a grossly noticeable typical fan. I like them to a point & I definitely recognize Dime's slickness on guitar.

Their half sandwich/soup combos are perfect for a rainy day. I'm a bacon-turkey bravo man myself.

Panera: Vulgar Display of Flour

No Pantera joke will ever be as good as the Patera threads

???

This mostly sums up my feelings about this band. Phil is still an epic fucking tool though -- Phil's biggest fan is definitely Phil.

Right there with you on that. I'm not knocking their more famous era, but I'd take Power Metal or Projects in the Jungle over say Far Beyond Driven. Just a matter of musical preference.

they were one of the last of the arena days. no one could tear it up like they could.

agreed. ^

i would give anything to go back in time and see the Pantera/White Zombie show i went to at the brand new age of 15. i barely remember it, just how terrified i was of the floor.

Was there....Worcester Centrum, right? Back when zombie was still white......and relevent lol Pretty cool stage show too, w/ the lowering gigantic puppets and tv screens playing old horror movies on the sides.

Can't you see
I'm easily
Bothered by
Your faggotry?

August 26, 1996 with Anal Cunt and Deftones. my first show ever *sniff*

i remember being scared as shit at a slayer show in 1998 at the old lupos...i was in 10th grade and as soon as AoD started i got slammed backwards into one of those huge support beams that were in the middle of the floor and was blacked-out for a few seconds...

I miss being young and attending violent shows. I remember shit getting pretty real at a few Fear Factory shows during the Demanufacture era. My ex-girlfriend got hit square in the face and blood leaked like a faucet from her nose at one of their shows. This was before we got together though.

When I saw Meshuggah in NYC at one of their first U.S. shows, the whole place went off.

its funny i used to LIVE for chaos at shows and getting fucked up etc...now its like my pet peeve when people go crazy around me...i stand in the back and guard my beer like an old man / faggot these days.

Pantera @ the strand w/ Crowbar opening = my 1st show...I was 14yrs/old yikes! Got Dime's autograph before the show on the inside of my Far Beyond Driven cd. Not many can even compare to that one on my shows attended list.

I never enjoyed being punched and I don't understand folks who do.

my first hardcore show was Cold As Life hosting All Out War and Buried Alive (and it was the first or second Walls of Jericho show) at a place called the Magic Stick which I think is still operating. It was like stepping into a different world.

One of my first metal bands, so they will always hold a special place in my metal heart. That being said, don't listen to them much, if at all these days, but when I do, I listen to Domination. CFB is a great album, no doubt about it.

*CFH

I have the 2010 anniversary version of CFH but the EQ on the high frequencies is so exaggerated that it's unlistenable unless you've spent decades grinding your hearing to shreds already. Feels like icepicks in your ears. Stick with the original version. The bonus live disc is kinda neat though.

that place was the best. i saw Type O Negative there in 99, that dude that everyone used to call Undertaker took some dude out hard into one of those beams during Love You to Death.

Appreciated. CFH is probably my favorite album of theirs if I had to pick one, but all their albums are really good.

Got to see them in 99 opening for Black Sabbath in CT. The band's ability to play both tight and drunk remains unsurpassed to this day, and Dime's guitar playing has always been phenomenal.

Pantera is one of those bands where for whatever reason they sound way better when you're listening to them than when you're thinking about going to listen to them. Better that than the reverse.

The Great Southern Trendkill is the album on theres I reach for most often these days.

Totally remember the.undertaker dude.. I think I seen him at the most recent FearFactory show back when mechanized came out

this is so true...its really weird how that works.

Obviously

Cowboys from Hell is a pretty fucking solid album, no fucks.

Couldn't say I really like anything else by them i've heard though.

when i was an impressionable 15 year old in 96, this album taught me how to hate.

hahahaha oh man. for many years after Dime's death i barely listened to Pantera, but over the past few years i've been listening to them a lot, and the thought that always enters my mind is "why don't i listen to them more?".

I always liked Pantera. Stopped listening after Trendkill, though. First 4 songs on FBD always blew me away, plus Slaughtered is heavy as shit. First saw them at The Channel touring CFH, opening for Wrathchild America and Annihilator. As far as Anselmo albums, though, Down's NOLA destroys anything Pantera did in my opinion. Most annoying Anselmo moment for me: Superjoint Ritual headlining NEMHF when his drunken rambling between songs was at an all time douche-chilling level.

pth

haha thats exactly how i am now too... nothing made me happier than being in a pit and just going nuts...now i get all angry and have to stand in the back so i can enjoy my $5 beer.

The good ol days.

MY Laural's are playing bass in ozzfest 2012 everyone for wily's Zircon Machines OV War.. ..

bennyhillifier

Immortal you say?

Pantera is the shit man. Good angry metal. Fuck Thundersteel and his "old school" metal. What a lowlife loser.

In all our appreciation, we forgot to talk about the band Ever as instructed.

I also found a Dime guitar pick. I used have a bunch of them. He wants you to cal 1-900-263-3224. I doubt the number still works.

I was at that 2000 ozzfest and got arrested. I had barely turned 18...zip tie handcuffs on a golf cart.

Someone photshop immediately, possibly on top of RossSki.

pussy faggot

This ^

I was at all of these as well... Damn I've seen them a bunch of times.

Wow, Pantera and Neurosis was a show?

Yes, they had the projectors behind them and everything. I don't think a majority of the crowd knew what was happening. They were touring for Through Silver In Blood. I saw Neurosis two other times touring for that album. At the middle east with Eyehategod and at Saint Johns Gym in Clinton on some Relapse showcase. The funny thing is that's the last time I've seen them.

hahaha St. John's Gym. i saw Fear Factory and System of A Down there in like 98.

Anyone go to see Pantera at the Rocky Point Palladium? It had to be like early to mid 90s. Sound was actually killer there.

I saw Cypress Hill at Rocky Point...

I rode the Free Fall like 10x in a row that night too because my boys older brother was the operator and let us just stay on it and brought us up, then dropped up and then brought us right back up and dropped us again over and over...it was awesome

Haha, I was at that Cypress Hill show. Two things I learned there:

1. Rap is even more pointless live.
2. Black guys can roll a blunt in the palm of their hand.

http://youtu.be/UkAhvGgGTg8

I found this interesting, I havent really paid attention to anything pantera since watching VH1's behind the music. (the documentary made with all the footage of sam black church live @ axis spliced into it)

Shit Andrew.... Were you near the lawn when you got a arrested? I remember a bunch of guys near me smoking a shit load of weed and some guys getting arrested taken away in a golf cart. Please tell me that was you bahahaha

Fuck I think I may have even smoked with you. I was wearing a cannibal corpse shirt. I remember smoking with someone in a neurosis shirt at that show. I have no idea, but could have been anyone. Most people there were nu metal fagz

Didn't Anal Cunt play that show as well? '96-'97ish correct?

I think A.C. Opened every Eyehategod and Pantera show.

I remember Seth saying something one time about opening for Pantera in I believe it was Worcester in 1996. White Zombie was also on the bill and Rob Zombie had his period and threw a huge bitch fit which caused White Zombie to go on like 15 mintues later than scheduled all because Pantera chose A.C. to open instead of Powerman 5000.

this is essentially what happened, yes.

how do you remember what you were wearing? ...if I was wearing a Neurosis shirt, it was a white Pain of Mind shirt with red NEUROSIS; thats the only Neurosis shirt I've ever owned; and I did have it when I was in highschool so... MAYBE.

I dunno, I remember some death metal kid talking to me about CC. I dont know what happened to my old CC shirt because I had lost it shortly thereafter. I will LOL so hard if we had met before we knew ewho eachother was. The wheel weaves as the wheel wills.

you two faggots get a room about it

blood and bloody ashes, that would be something...

also, lets get a room.

profit!

If we got a room, will there be a lot of blow?

... Jobs?

wear your best Neurosis shirt

I'm listening right now to Reinventing The Steel. Fuck you it's awesome. Sure it sounds like they went into the studio piss drunk and recorded everything in one take in some spots, but it's part of the albums charm.

WIMPS AND POSEURS LEAVE THE HALL
