Pantera

[Shady Ultima]

Why doesn't Pantera have an official thread? Is it because Dimebag is dead?

Well, I think Pantera should have a thread, they're one of the greatest metal bands of the nineties, and one of my favourites of all time.

I do have one question, is there as Suicide Note Pt1? I've only ever heard PT2. Anyways, I hope you will make this into the official thread.

RIP Dime

[Mother]

I think they do ....But because theres no more pantera it doesent do to well and it dies.

[nowitzki]

There's been a few Pantera threads, but they all seem to die which is a shame. I guess there's rarely anything new to discuss.

Yeah there is a Suicide Note Pt. 1, they are both on The Great Southern Trendkill.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I love the obligatory "RIP Dime"

[Mother]

There are rumours around that a pantera tribute CD SI in the works

Rumors have been circulating around the internet that a select number of bands have decided to record a Pantera tribute album, in memory of Dimebag Darrell. After what seemed like years of awaiting to see if the rumors were true, it seems like it has been worth the wait. 16 well-known artists have now gone into the studio to record Vulgar Display of Reinvention: A Tribute to Pantera, including some pioneer acts from the thrash scene such as Slayer, Anthrax and Testament. Although no tracks have yet been recorded, a tracklisting of what will appear on the album has been revealed to be

Anthrax - Revolution Is My Name
Fear Factory - Use My Third Arm
Machine Head - Cowboys From Hell
Hatebreed - Strength Beyond Strength
Shadows Fall - I'm Broken
Sevendust - Walk
Helmet - This Love
Chimaira - Throes Of Rejection
Grip Inc. - Mouth For War
Testament - Heresy
Children Of Bodom - Slaughtered
Soulfly - Primal Concrete Sledge
Megadeth - Floods
Lamb Of God - A New Level
Slayer - Regular People
Mudvayne - Cemetary Gates

The album will open with Anthrax covering Revolution Is My Name, one of the more popular songs from the album Reinventing The Steel (see REVIEWS). They will be joined by former bandmate and brother of Dimebag, Vinnie Paul Abbott, as he wishes to record the drum track for this particular song. This decision was reached when Vinnie Paul turned down an offer to take up the drums for Anthrax's next record, and instead agreed to help create and play on a Pantera tribute album.

"Although many fans may see it as being disrespectful to some extent, I think it's a great way for the world to say goodbye to Brother Dime properly." Vinnie continues, "And the bands I've asked to come help out are all bands I know he loved, and I know they're gonna kick *** and show us that they can continue the legacy that will never die...PANTERA!"

No release date has been set, although there is an estimate that it will appear in stores around Christmas this year.

That i got off some other forum


if its true ... how kick *** will it be to see Testament cover Heresy

[kyall_maiden666]

Yeah a Pantera thread is needed. Good one too. Show some respect.

RIP Dime

Why doesn't Pantera have an official thread?Why don't*

EDIT: Or even, why do Pantera not have an official thread?
I do have one question, is there as Suicide Note Pt1?That's the acoustic one isn't it?

I'm lovin' Pantera as of late. Domination contains probably one of the best solos ever. I might *attempt* to learn it soon.

I'm getting a Dimebag tattoo.

[Akeh]

Mudvayne Cemetary Gates :(

[Prince of Darkness]

If this thread works, we should be allowed to discuss side projects aswell.

[nowitzki]

Why don't*
No, actually he was right, a band should be reffered to as a singular thing (I think).

I really want to see the performance of Cemetery Gates at Gigantour with Dream Theater, Burton C Bell and Dave Mustaine. I have heard it might be put on a Gigantour DVD that will be released sometime.

[repcak]

Pantera is not everything.... Damageplan (although they recorded only once album) were great - i liked them and was looking for further albums, but now it seems they will never come.

[Dave de Sylvia]

No, actually he was right, a band should be reffered to as a singular thing (I think).
It depends on your personal preference.

Someone wrote an awesome Pantera FA recently or something

[Ladyshredder126]

I liked that Dime tribute that Guitar World did.
Pantera>Damageplan

Mudvayne Cemetary Gates :(

ugh.

[Thor]

Mudvayne Cemetary Gates :(
Wait a minute, they made one? That's a crime against metal.

[Squirrel]

Why doesn't Pantera have an official thread? Is it because Dimebag is dead?




:lol::lol:

[Thor]

The reason why there isn't a big Pantera thread is because there's not much to discuss about them, seeing as how both Pantera and Damageplan(I'm pretty sure) are over. What's left to discuss besides the past?

[Squirrel]

Why don't*

No, its fine the way he said it.

[Prince of Darkness]

There's still quite a bit of discussion in the Beatles thread, but I see what you mean.

Is Superjoint Ritual still together?

Make this the official thread of Pantera and all the other bands that the mambers had.

[i am the robots]

I can't get into Pantera, whenever I listen to them I just feel like they're draining me of energy.

[Nostalgia]

I like Pantera. Vulgar's my favorite album.

But the one reason that these threads don't work out too well is because it becomes a "RIP Dime" thread. We all know he died and we're all sad or were sad about it, but it doesn't need to be said every post.

[Kyle]

I love the obligatory "RIP Dime"haha, indeed. I guessed it as soon as I saw the thread title.

Anyways, Rebel Meet Rebel album comes out soon.

[BassMasterMike88]

I honestly find it somwhat sad that Pantera has had a resuregence for the wrong reason, that being Dimbag's death.

[HazMan]

Yeah man i can sense what ya mean, i was bashing Pantera and Damageplan days before he died :(

It gave me the incentive to listen to them again and i felt like a c*nt because i realised it was great music and a part of my early teenage life came from it. Funny how it takes a death to put everything in focus.

[alexmonty12]

I started liking them like a week before he died.

Damn, I didn't even know it was him at first. I don't tend to check out band members names/what they look like until i wanna google them or something, so whenevery one was like "dimbag died!" i was like "what who"

So I never really got a chance to start liking them before he died :(

[Stevie]

Nobody masturbated over Dimebag before he died, so why start now?

[Nostalgia]

I doubt many people are really emotional over his death. Yeah, it sucks he died but it's not that big of deal.

[BassMasterMike88]

Thats somthing I would put on a t-shirt, you Sir, get a gold star.

[Shady Ultima]

Alright, I just got Suicide note Pt 1... I've had it labelled wrong before.

And I'm pretty sure that Superjoint isn't together any more. I'm pretty sure that Phil is/was doing a solo project. I remember reading something about it shortly after Dimebag was killed.

I've also heard that DamagePlan intends to release a new CD. There are a lot of tracks that Dime already had recorded, the solos may be done by Zakk Wylde, who may play on the album in tribute of his friend.

And I haven't heard of Rex lately, is Crowbar still around?

[Stoo]

Phil and Rex are with Down....

I'm seeing them on the 27th of May in Glasgow.

[Shady Ultima]

Very Nice, I'd like to see that too

[Neoteric]

I like them but I couldn't listen to them all the time.

[tom79]

I haven't heard enough of their material to say if i'm a big fan, but liked what i've heard. They did a great cover of Ted Nugent's Cat Scratch Fever.

[PinkFloyd]

rip dime

[Toaster]

:lol:

:lol: :lol: if you're not kidding.

[HAIL TRUE METAL]

RIP Dimebag

[=-fukifiknow-=]

if you're not kidding.


nobody thinks your cool, ur just hopping on the hate dime bandwagon. get stuffed

[Kyle]

nobody thinks your cool, ur just hopping on the hate dime bandwagon. get stuffedThe only thing worse than the over the top praising of him.

Anyways go here;

For anyone who doesn't know, this is a Dimebag/Vinnie Paul/Rex brown side project whereby they link up with David allen coe. they have an album coming out real soon, it all sounds really cool.

[nowitzki]

Sure they did, just not as many.

Wow, that's awesome! Never woulda expected Dime and them to have a myspace though... lol. Definately gonna pick that cd up

[HAIL TRUE METAL]

dude ive been a pantera fan for 2 1/2 years now. dime was the one who got me into guitar because i wasnt as invovled with playing. now its sad to see someone die, espcially since its someone who inspired me to play guitar

[Crysiss]

nobody thinks your cool, ur just hopping on the hate dime bandwagon. get stuffed

Ahh, theres the guy that stole my old avatar. :p

I was going to do the "RIP Dime" thing but someone beat me to it:mad:


I like the 5 minutes alone solo.

EDIT: Everything I just said is so out of context of one another.

[Toaster]

No, I just find it funny how people don't feel the need to contribute anything this thread save "rip dime". We know he's dead, it was tragic, he was a great guitarist, but if he's not resting in peace by now, then he won't ever be.

[Rattlehead]

theyre just paying their respects, lay off.

pantera own. i have every album. beautiful. they are great. i was only recently shown how glam they were, and i have to say that i would have never have linked their music to what they dressed themselves up in. so i couldn't care less about it, the clothing doesnt matter to me. many people hate them because of their style and appearance, but i couldn't care less, no matter how embarrassing it can be.

[Shady Ultima]

They never really dressed glam after Phil joined the band. After that they took a cowboy approach to everything

[Rattlehead]

lol, hence the album

[lord of the strings]

pantera are good, but after awhile the screaming DOES get a little old. however, there is no doubt dime was a talented shredder, but what would've happened if he was still alive? would he be considered as good, or worse? or would he have drifted into the past like metallica and megadeth??? and is time real? whats the meaning of life?

[Stoo]

nice first post.

:rolleyes:

1. no meaning of life. humanity isnt full of facts which still makes it full of beliefs and opinions.

2. there is no real time because time is the key factor in life. time is what makes life unexpecting. thats why there is no real meaning of life.

3. if dime didnt die people would have not expressed their real feelings about dime. another reason why people make it a big deal is because people who were close to him like vinnie alex VH ect. will miss the good times with dime

[1] the second sentence isn't relevant to the first.
[2]*doesn't make sense* ...but time is incomprehendable along with every other aspect of physical science, because we know virtually nothing of it.
[3]i suppose

you started off with some good points, but then started talking utter bollocks. Metallica didn't drift into the past, unfortunately. and the Pantera thread is not the place for the philisophical questioning of life. you are mistaken.

[Jon]

Vulgar Display of Power HELL YES.

The played Cowboys from Hell in Decadence last night which was random and out of character but it was nice to have a good headbang and stuff =)

[Txus]

I like pantera in little dosis.

[nowitzki]

NP: Revolution is My Name
Such an awesome song, one of Pantera's finest.

To go with the sentence under my Avatar!

Yeah i'm a big Pantera fan, but i gotta admit i didn't get into them properly until after Dime died. I knew songs like 'Cowboys from hell', and 'Walk' but that's about it. My favourite Pantera albums are CFH, and VDoP. Favourite track s: CFH, Domination, Cemetary gates, Revolution is my name, Strength beyond strength, I'M BROKEN, Walk, ****ing hostile.

NP: Cowboys from Hell-Dimebag at his best

[gigi666]

is there a pantera song called "**** the world"???

[Stoo]

I don't think so.

[gigi666]

I love playing the cowboy from hell riff... its so fast and heavy yet catchy! im trying to learn the solo

[Rattlehead]

is there a pantera song called "**** the world"???
that would be "War Nerve". great song. "**** the world, for all its worth, every inch of planet earth,..." - is a frequent lyric, thats why you thought it was thus named.

[gigi666]

ahhh thx man :D i was searching for that song everywhere :p

[Rattlehead]

no problemo! :thumb:

[Rattlehead]

:lol: just learned what is actually said at the beginning of Domination... "Farts stink like a mother****er!".

and I've been listening to CFH album alot recently, i love it.

NP: The Medicine Man

[tmart937]

avenged sevenfold's [I]Betrayed[I] is a tribute to dimebag

[Sadbutrue16]

Pantera is kickass... fav songs: Cowboys From Hell, I'm Broken, 5 Minutes Alone, God Damn Electric, Walk, Fuccking Hostile, some more but i have a mind blank.

[XXbleedingthroughXX]

i really only like 1 song by pantera, domination. can someone like recommend me some tracks ive only heard liek 4 songs and i only liked domination

[Rattlehead]

Cemetery Gates
Mouth For War
Strength Beyond Strength
The Medicine Man
The Sleep
25 Years
10's
Floods

[Rattlehead]
