I dont mind hair bands and 80s rock fashions but these boys from Texas just weren't known for it in later life

Excellant clip

I wasn't so fond of latter Pantera - liked CFH but the vocals got worse to my (1980s) ears after that

That's what seperates Pantera from the rest! Insane vocals

Loads of bands do this sort of thing; did anyone else laugh really hard when Papa Roach went from angry nu-metallers to whiney emos?

No - but saw them live and they were really good entertainment (supported Motley Crue)

Post by: _tom_ on August 07, 2008, 06:15:15 PM: Pantera just seemed to get heavier as they progressed, CFH has some fairly hair metally screams on it :P

Post by: Johnny Mac on August 07, 2008, 09:44:19 PM: I love dimes riffs from vulgar display of power they just blow my speakers apart in my truck and make my day strumming and drumming on the steering wheel, i love it! Anselmos vocals, I've got used to them and they do fit the mood of the music.

I'm on my 3rd pair in 18 months, good old Maplins eh!

I use an ipod transmitter and tune into 107.7 in London as its the only position I can find without some chav pirate numb nuts uttering shitee in the background.
