Pantera - Behind the Music Part 1

Pantera was an American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas, formed by the Abbott brothers, Vinnie Paul (drums) and Dimebag Darrell (guitar) in 1981. Bassist Rex Brown would join in late 1981 with vocalist Terry Glaze. In 1987 Phil Anselmo became the group's lead vocalist. In 2003, Pantera officially disbanded. Any hope of a reunion was lost in 2004, when Dimebag Darrell was shot and killed on-stage at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio on December 8 while performing with Damageplan.

Phil Anselmo (Ozzfest 2002):

Phil: "Hey man...nice hair. How long did it take you to do that?"

Kid: "20 minutes"

Phil: "20 minutes? You fucking faggot!"

If Pantera and Metallica got together in the early 90s it would be the sickest concert and biggest drinking party of all time.

@JaemsKolousek turns out i was wrong, he never went off his meds. that's because he was never on meds to begin with. he refused treatment and medication for his schizophrenia. but either way, you're dead wrong.

[msng9808]

@JaemsKolousek it's the complete opposite actually. dime's murderer was a schizophrenic and was supposed to be on medication to control it. the problem was that he went off his meds causing him to go crazy and shoot dimebag along with a bunch of other people. if the guy would of stayed on his meds, dime would probably still be alive right now, so bring your propaganda elsewhere.

@stugots708 Psycho Holiday

[JaemsKolousek]

The guy who shot D-man was on psych drugs. This is the hidden plague destruction of our society. the cause of death of a majority of our artists. Learn the truth. This is the real target. Watch ALL videos at CCHR.org.

Unfortunately the scum doctors/psych's keep giving these chemicals to psychopaths and it turns the rest into psychos. Be aware. From a life-long shredder. Do something like educate others instead of sitting in the beautiful sadness of it all.

TO DIMEBAG: Creative genius

@thnk4urself for your information dude, i was there when dave was showin the guys that slidin chord riff they use on a tune they called ride the lightning man.. a lot of songs they changed lyrics to and added their names on the songs.. i remember james playin simple power chord riffs , mainly because he just started playin rhythm, he would play it one way an dave would swig his beer and rephrase it n a minute. i dig metallica, megadeth is just better tho..in musical terms of course
