'its more like cowboys from hell is the only good studio album and everything else is just 2-3 good songs at best surrounded by stewing putrid mediocrity"



This is a popular opinion that needs to die. I never understood how people felt that falsetto Anselmo fits better than "I will eat your fucking face" Anselmo with those deeper grooves for their overall sound.



Don't get me wrong, Cowboys is awesome but Vulgar and on is where they became Pantera imo.

"unless u meant cfh in which case kinda i guess"

No I meant this one. Sure it's got its weaker tracks, but still a landmark album.

The most overrated album to be released in a sea of far superior albums.

In my case that's objectively impossible, unless you held that opinion already long before Pantera was formed

Say what you will, but nothing gets me as pumped as this album. There are better metal albums, sure, but if I ever get into a bar fight, I'm going to politely request that they pause until I can put this album on.

Ah yes, the foundation of any true musical classic.

@Casavir - Hey man, if it gets me more pumped than any other band out there I consider that an accomplishment. Is it the quality of "Wish You Were Here?" No, but it's obviously not trying to be.

I mean, to be fair, you're kind of strawmanning me here with the Wish You Were Here comparison. If you compare this to metal from '92, there are some significant disparities in quality on Vulgar Display's part.



I mean, you had stuff like Ashore the Celestial Burden, First Depression, Extravasation, Epidemic of Violence, Beyond the Crimson Horizon, Kaleidoscope, Songs for Insects, Images and Words, Gloomy Reflections of Our Hidden Sorrows, A Vision of Misery, Slumber of Sullen Eyes, etc. Stuff that has a lot more variety and generally more interesting composition than Vulgar Display. It was one of metal's best years in spite of Pantera and not because of them.

Ok, I will say that Epidemic of Violence is better than this.



Spectrum of Death and Slaughter at the Vatican are the only other albums from that time that I would say top this in terms of that badass feeling they are trying to evoke. If we're using those rules, then albums like Images and Words don't really apply.



Anyway, I don't think there's much more to say :-/ I just like this a lot more than you

The fact that there are '92 metal albums far better than this doesn't make this one less enjoyable.

"This is a popular opinion that needs to die."



no, the infinitely more popular opinion that needs to die is that this band is good or noteworthy or "classic", and the fuckin 15 year olds worshipping dime like they never heard a proper guitarist with more than just speed on his mind, which to be fair they probably havent



and like i said child, ive held this opinion since this album came out
