Actually, Terrence (or Terry) went on to live Finn's dream life. He became a dad and had 2 kids. Appearently he had his own little re-union with Vinnie Paul of Pantera back in 2010. By the looks of it he's doing fine, he aged pretty well and his singing actually improved since then.
That’s great to hear!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA i should add, he is still a musician just not that successful + he won on deal or no deal big times once then blew the prize money on poker (according to his bio on his official page)... but he still posts happy posts on facebook, so i assume he's doing fine.
Interestingly his wife has a PhD and works a pretty high up job at NASA
The Abbott brother's dad's recorded their first albums
I love POWER METAL
Reinventing The Steel has some INSANELY amazing riffs.
This album has aged perfectly.
Agree, it's excellent. Hellbound is an incredible opener to give an idea what the album is all about.
Best album in my opinion, what would have came after?
@@Cowsaregonagetme That's really a tough one, but I'd have to go with Far Beyond Driven. How about yourself?
At the time, it was kinda meh, but 20 years later, it shines. It was Pantera locked into what they did best. It was the first of the "real" Pantera records to not be radically heavier and different than the last. They didn't break new ground at all, but they didn't need to.
Had they kept going, it would have been the last album before a string of 1 or 2 skippable records.
Side note: throes of rejection is meh, but... The solo is the best Dimebag solo. Hands down.
Saw em 5 times. Miss em... But I'm torn on the Zakk/Charlie tour. Especially given the current condition of Phil's vocal chords.
Steel is a good one for sure and a little underrated
Cemetery Gates is a masterpiece! It’s one of the greatest ballads ever. As a matter of fact, there’s no bad songs on CFH. Dimebag shreds on the whole thing and Phil actually sings with impressive range.
The whole song is absolute perfection in song writing and this guy has the nerve to call people posers lol.... hating arguably one of panteras greatest songs is absurd to me
Cemetery Gates is corny
@@TeaNoSugar87
In what way? What exactly do you not like about it?
Agreed. I'm surprised he's so generous to Hollow when Cemetery Gates is so much heavier and more technical. I'm also surprised he dissed on The Sleep, which is an underrated avant-garde song with a jaw-dropping guitar solo. Overall, I agree with his album rankings though.
@@concernedliberal4453
I love the whole album. It’s the only one in their discography that I enjoy all the way through. Each song has its own character and doesn’t sound like anything else. The Sleep does indeed have a great solo! Phil has gone on record saying it’s his favorite.
CFH is a perfect blend of some of their favorite early influences. You can hear Judas Priest, Metallica, Van Halen and ZZ Top all woven into it. Phil’s voice was also at its peak in terms of versatility.
Btw…
No one can deny that “Hollow” is bone crushingly heavy at the end!
Rex is a stupidly underrated bassist.
I rate great southern trendkill higher than most, I love that record.
Over the last 15 years for me Trendkill just keeps getting better and better. Top 2 for sure
It is, I can’t seem to choose what I like better, Trendkill or Vulgar
@@AnthonyLeeBand same here
One of the main reasons why Floods' guitar solo feels so great is because of how fucking insane the bass line behind it is too, and I find it extremely sad than so few people seem to notice it
I agree. Maybe even the second best behind vulgar. Trendkill is supremely heavy
For me, great southern trendkill is a perfect album. So heavy and fucked up in all the right places. So many southern sounding riffs. I heard Scott Ian once say they're like ZZ top on steroids. And I honestly think great southern trendkill has riffs all through it that show that.
If ZZ Top and Lynerd Skyned were an evil metal band.
Seth Putnam from AxCx even does some screaming on that record
@@maxh9579 never heard of him, what songs does he do vocals? Because it sounds like Phil the entire time
@@rossmusic25 Read that it's on 13 Steps to Nowhere
Trendkill is the pinnacle of Pantera for me also. I saw them on Vulgar, Driven, and Trendkill tours, and the live show was an improvement each time, and by Trendkill they were destroying it. Also, think that #1 on Billboard was top 200, so not quite the same, but still a huge accomplishment for a heavy band in the '90s.
Their Extreme Steel tour was so nuts. Pantera, Slayer, and Morbid Angel in a single night.
I was there in Detroit
When I saw it the tour had Soulfly and Morbid Angel. Saw them open up for Black Sabbath on the reunion tour. Deftones, Pantera, and Sabbath.
Damn, I wish that one had come to NZ
I was at the Chicago show
New Haven. So good. Static X was great too.
I actually genuinely like Power Metal. You can hear where it's not just worlds away from CFH. Over and Out is heavy. Phil was a definite upgrade even during his Halford worship years.
Yeah, being a fan of classic heavy metal and Phil's old singing style, I think it's a shame that album got buried because it has some bangers.
@@xenos_n. Totally! Also, Vince and his Dad did a damned good job with the production. Sounds really professional for an unsigned band in that time.
Glad i am not the only one who likes that album
I discovered Pantera at age 11 by asking the sales assistant at a CD store to suggest something similar to The Offspring, I still remember him taking out Pantera Far Beyond Driven with a grin...the rest is history. In my top 5 of all-time favorite bands.
Now that’s how you upsell
@@ryanjones8217 😂😂 In South Africa of all places. I still remember it was in La Lucia Mall.
Love story’s like this…
I would look out for that sales assistent and make him a present or something like that. at least thank him for pulling out the FBD cd
I like early Offspring, before Americana. It's more punk.
You can tell the rhythm section of Pantera had been playing together for A LONG TIME. They were so in sync with each other it's crazy
Great southern trend kill is my number one.
@@shawnjasso832 damn shame they never played it live
I remember seeing Slipknot as a teenager in 2000/2001 and they played "Walk" in between sets and the whole crowd sang so loud. It's a concert memory that will always stand out.
I love the irony of how it seems like all the Djent bands only credit Meshuggah as a founding pillar of that sound, but Pantera’s grooves, odd rhythmic phrasing and super bendy riffs are an obvious influence
Funny Phil actually came up with the riff for Mouth for War. He actually plays guitar and is pretty good at it. He makes riffs for the bands he plays with these days.
The most underrated Pantera song is Regular People. The series of riffs before the vocals kick in still makes me throw whatever chair I’m sitting in across the room
💯
“Most regular people would say…”
ITS HARD
Any streetwise sonofabitch knows
DONT FUCK
WITH THIS
All the way!
any street wise sonofabitch knows...
I’m a Dallas native, Pantera is the band. I got to meet VP Abbott because my dad’s step brother knew the Abbott brothers when they were all in high school and would have jam sessions, seriously the nicest guy, he asked me who my favorite band was and 7 year old me said “Judas Priest” and he got so happy at that. I’ll never forget that, we didn’t meet him as fans but as a friend of a family member. Sad that all of them are gone now. Also never forget Pantera wrote “Puck Off” for the Dallas Stars. Their memory and legacy is still felt in Dallas to this day.
thanks for sharing that story, it's cool
My ex had a similar story. She liked them ok but I was the super fan and then after a few dates, she tells me she had drinks with them after their vulgar tour in Melbourne. I was sceptical until she showed me the photos of them all drinking at a bar..
Other ppl have the best stories.
I used to live in Arlington....now live in Cincinnati
I became a Pantera fan because of the Dallas Stars. I remember hearing the song when I was a kid I thought it was so cool. I vaguely remember Vinnie and Dime playing the song on a float during the championship parade
@@curlofburl yep, they wrote that song because Vinnie and Craig Ludwig were golf buddies and floated the idea. The song actually got finished and sent to them during the finals in 99 when they were in Buffalo and has been there since. The Abbotts were major supporters and friends of the Stars.
Still think “Cemetery Gates” is their best song. I’ve listened to everything else & love it all but that song just hits something inside. It’s perfect. From Phil’s vocals to Dime’s unbelievable playing on it. 🎸😎
You are right my friend
It's a poor representation of the band they became
@@integrity101 it is not. ‘This love’ is another great ballad that *is* Pantera.
The greatest heavy ballad I’ve heard.
I agree 100%!
He's still credited as "Diamond" on my copy of Vulgar 🤣
I wonder how many kids got into Crowbar (and by extension sludge metal) because of Phil wearing that long sleeve
The Great Southern Trendkill is definitely Pantera's best album. I'd fight anyone to death about it.
Hell yeah, Floods all day.
It's really a toss up for me, either Trendkill or FBD, I really can't choose one over the other.
Epic for sure.👌😎✨
Lmao...stand ur ground
best riffs for sure. I think the only thing about that album is Phils vocals aren't good. other than that, best.
Phil wrote the Mouth for War riff so that may be why it’s less conventional as you were saying. Great ranking btw. Mine is similar but Driven was my first Pantera album so it’s always my #1
I didn't realize Phil wrote any of Pantera's riffs. Learn something new every day.
I do recall him saying he wrote all the riffs for his band Phil Anselmo & the illegals, but he hires a guitar player to play the shit because he can't play well consistently.
@@cletusyeetus9077 Yeah it's crazy that he wrote Mouth for War, definitely one of my fav of their riffs. I could have seen him writing something like Walk, since it's a lot simpler (effective, but simple)
@@CompleteProducer84 same, yet that stroke of brilliant simplicity was all Dime's. Totally not what I would have thought if someone would have told me Phil wrote a riff on that album.
Far Beyond Driven is the no. 1 Pantera album.
Yep Far Beyond Drivin will always be number 1 for sure, 🤘
"We'll meet Again" from Power Metal is a GREAT song. It has a STUNNING solo from Dimebag and I like the atmosphere the song has overall. It sounds like something from an 80s Horror Movie at times, and It has elements on there that merges into what they'd develop further with Cemetery Gates. I love it as it is, but Id imagine them re-recording it, with a Cowboys from Hell sound, it could have been incredible.
Agree! Best song on power metal
Agreed
Absolutely agreed
Suicide Note 2 still puts goosebumps on my arms.
The opening track of FBD is…it’s perfect.
I objectively rank the albums the same. Personally, subjectively, I go RTS, CFH, TGSTK, VDOP, FBD.
FBD vs VDOP is close. Listen to the first four tracks on each. But VDOP is so iconic it borders absurd and has to be #1.
Oddly enough, I’ve probably listened to TGSTK the most (living in NOLA, Floods get a lot of spins). While it isn’t their best, it’s certainly their heaviest. That said, there are a couple of slower songs too that still throat punch the listener. In a weird tonal, mood, atmospheric way, it might be the most consistent album.
Such a life affirming song. Makes ya wanna live.
I straight up broke my low E string on my guitar playing “Good friends and a bottle of pills”. The riffs reinforced by Rex on the low end is killer. RIP Dime.
Power metal was a pretty cool speed metal album. Underrated IMO
Power Metal is one of PanterA's best albums, We'll Meet Again can rival any other PanterA song and the solo from that song could possibly be Dimes best work.
Power Metal 10/10 for sure!
ez bait
My 3rd fav Pantera album! So underrated/under appreciated
Best Phil vocals of em all
I think Ola Englund could do a good job on guitar, he's always nailing Pantera riffs and covers 🤘🏼
Now, we need a video on "No skip albums". I completely agree about "Appetite" being "the tits". I've loved it since 1988. I saw them open for Aerosmith, and they blew Aerosmith out of the water. Just damn epic.
Back in Black is a perfect "no skip" album.
Led Zeppelin 2
I was in college when FBD came out. Loved Pantera, Danzig, and all the great Thrash stuff from the 80s and early 90s.
Me and my friend Brian went to the record store the day this album came out and we both purchased the CD. We get into his car and put it in right away. When the 1st song started playing and it opened with that short guitar riff and blasted into the utter hardcore fast song that it is, he and I immediately looked at each other and burst into laughter. Not because of the song being funny or bad or anything, but how utterly awesome it was and the ballsy decision to open an album with that song. An album that followed Vulgar Display of Power, which was an enormous breakthrough for them
Vinnie Paul was as good a drummer as Dimebag was a guitarist. He was so incredibly precise. Everything was where it had to be, no blast beats and most of all he didn’t abuse the double bass
He did blast beats once, on use my third arm, and its fucking sick
Great Southern Trendkill has alway been my favorite Pantera album. So dark, so heavy, so good!
I had a friend that gave me like 200 cassettes that he burned from his albums and the first Pantera albums were included, I remember how much I hated them and the C.F.H. came out and I was blown away. Been a fan ever since.
For me Id probably go
1. Far Beyond Driven
2. Vulgar Display of Power
3. Great Southern Trendkill
4. Reinventing The Steel
5. Cowboys From Hell
6. Everything before CFH
CHF is great but the other 4 albums are untouchable in my mind. The sound on those albums is one of my favorite things that's ever existed musically. Sucks I never got to see them live, feels like a bucket list thing that I'll never be able to complete, even if I were to attend next year.
I agree on the Reinventing over Cowboys.. but it's such a hard thing to rank in the sea of greatness that is Pantera. Immortality Insane and Avoid the Light happen to be two if my favs.
Great video! It's just too hard to rank these albums, as they just didn't make many bad songs... if any. Very subjective.
I saw them once before the blew up on the Vulgar tour, at the Mirage in Minneapolis... stellar show.
FBD worst! Are you insane?
@@TheRemulosEpsolonProgramme 🤦♂️
But Cowboys is just so clean sounding. The production is amazing!
Yeah I've seen em I think 5 times
So hard to remember last few times I saw em cuz I was shitfaced(I've seen Tool 2 times according to my friend but I dont remember)and I've seen Down and Damage Plan once each
Thier live show was so much more than a regular metal show. When they took a break between songs Phil would talk to the us. Sometimes they would throw swag beer at us. Once they turned the lights onto the pit and played suicide note pt 2 in darkness. Another time they brought Jason Newstead up and they played Metallica songs. There will never be another band like them.
The Great Southern Trendkill is a masterpiece. Easily my favourite of theirs
I’ve always really loved The Great Southern Trendkill. That said, everything from Cowboys from Hell on is at least very good. Far Beyond Driven is my personal favorite.
I remember back in the days when I was 14 and MTV was good, I would stay up late and secretely turn on the television to watch the metal videos (I just started playing electric guitar) and when I first saw the video to Mouth for War it blew my mind. Still one of my favorite songs almost 25 years later.
I remember reading in a magazine a long long time ago that the song "Floods" was ranked as one of Dime's best solos
Well done, Finn. I think we’d all like to see more of these Worsts to Best. Blink, Metallica, Sabbath, A Day To Remember for SURE! We know it’s been done before, but we value your opinion
Great video Finn! I would love to see more deep dive videos like this from you where you do this to your favorite artists. Definitely would love to see a ADTR deep dive from you! Or even if you could do those for less known artists to get to know their discographies more.
So Glad you did this Ranking, My Two Personal Favorite Albums here were Cowboys From Hell and Vulgar Display of Power.
Great video Finn! Far Beyond Driven still hits so hard to this day, Pantera we’re really on another level.
Always blew my mind how in sync the brothers were. Unbelievable
The Great Southern Trendkill is by far my favorite album. That album just has so much fire behind it. It's proof agony translates to great music. Take notes Metallica.
i agree totally
Me too, it’s also the most underrated. I think it’s the most hardcore album out of their entire discography. TGSTK is my favorite album for sure.
I don't think Metallica sweats it too much. They literally have albums that have outsold Pantera's entire discography.
meh.. not many song here that are actually good. First two albums are easily the best
Thank you so much for uploading almost daily Finn these videos are the highlight of my day. It’s better than classic mtv
Definitely gonna jam Pantera now. Dime was the reason I picked up my chops on guitar.
Thanks man been wanting to get into Pantera this helped alot 👍
Thank you for this video, brought back happy memories!
A quick story on why reinventing the steel sounds that way:
When the band sat down to record this record they came to the table with I believe 3 songs each from their discography that was their favourites. Also anselmo wanted to more anthemic style vocals not for radio play. Also I’ll cast a shadow was about the impact they left on the metal scene in the 10 years they were popular and the impact they’ll leave
Weird, I’ve been watching Pantera videos all morning. Really looking forward to this one!! The Sleep is suuuuper slept on (no pun intended) The high notes Dime hits in the solo give me goosebumps every time
Ha same I’ve been on a binge this weekend. Hella excited to see them next year!! 🤟🏻
@@lisalove991 Same! I was only 6 when we lost Dime, this is the closest I’m gonna get to seeing them most likely.
Yo Finn, I think you got something with this deep dive. You’ve got the following and taste to enlighten us 😂
I’ve always liked Pantera but just realized how many bangers I’ve been missing out on
So happy someone finally mentioned how damn heavy and amazing ''slaughtered'' is. I remember being 9 years old digging through my older brothers CD collection just to listen to that album and slaughtered in particular. Always thought I just consider it so good because of nostalgia.
love your second account deep dives! Best regards from Germany
Whenever I see someone asking "what is the heaviest riff?", I always answer Slaughtered! I think it's heavy as eff!!
The first four records are essential to understand their journey , also the developping musical options .
The thing you like only hardcore metal and skip a song once its more melodic or more deeper doesn't mean that suck .
I agree 100% with this list! VULGAR is one of the best metal albums of all time but I have to say, "Slaughtered" from FBD is BRUTAL!!!
Slaughtered is the best on driven. Becoming too.
Great video dude!!
Agree 100%! Great job putting this together!
The evolution of Pantera is funny. Most bands have a banging start and they start to get "less good" after 3 or 4 albums, while Pantera was just getting warmed up in that time. Which also shows their persistence and drive to be something else from what already was, but also kept them grounded by not taking success for granted.
**cough** Metallica **cough**
Finn, I legit agree with you on this entire ranking. and yup, Mouth For War is my favorite track also. that main riff makes me pound my steering wheel every time I drive and listen to it.
Ya gotta it spot on, brotha! Great video and insight about all songs and discography. I’m a mega Pantera head! It will be my favourite band for the rest of my life!
Please do more of these deep dives! There are definitely some bands whose discography I’d love to dive into. I just don’t have the time these days!
Reinventing the steel was my introduction to Pantera and they're one of my favorite bands of all time every song on that album is a banger imo
You gotta read Rex Browns book man. Fills ya in quite a bit. Especially for Reinventing the steel. They were broken at that time.
Cheers for the recommendations mate. I do need some guitar inspiration and this might scratch the itch
Dude thank you so much for this one, was thinking about give their albums a shot but didn't know where to start 🙂
Dropping the rhythm guitars in the solo is Dime repping early Van Halen. The early VH records which he and Vinnie were heavily influenced by had Eddie panned hard left and the bass on the right with Ed (pretty much) doing everything without overdubs.
I love those songs where they dropped the rhythm guitar for the solo, because those are the ones where I can hear exactly what REX is playing. He was amazing, sometimes matching the drums, sometimes the guitar, and sometimes matching none.
Yes bro! Thank you for giving a shout out to how awesome Slaughtered is.
It’s weird because there are distinct phases. The pre-CFH, peak, and post FBD. It took me a long time to appreciate Great Southern Trendkill but I loved Reinventing the Steel right off the shelf. Great video!
Also worth mentioning- Trendkill was them at their most messed up. IIRR, Phil didn’t even leave New Orleans to record vocals because he was so strung out and ashamed. Reinventing the Steel was supposed to be them with all of their issues worked out which worked until it didn’t.
For me both Cowboys & Vulgar Display are no-skip albums. Also speaking of no-skip albums for me The Jester Race/Whoracle/Colony/Clayman by In Flames fit the bill perfectly, along with Rust in Peace by Megadeth, ...'Justice by Metallica, Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park, and Holographic Universe by Scar Symmetry to name a few.
Linkin Park is mega gay.
Far Beyond Driven is a no skipper too, skipper.
I used to love Jester Race and Colony etc when I was 16 but nowadays I can't really listen to those albums, I don't think In Flames held up all that well with time compared with other bands from that same time. Dark Tranquillity, Sentenced, Amorphis, At The Gates all aged much better I think. The first Haunted album as well is stupidly good.
I love them all (even the first four). I have to put Trendkill as my hands down number one. So heavy, and so dark.
The Sleep is one of their best songs, the lead is iconic
Agree with this list completely. Made me happy to hear you’re a 311 fan too. Love those dudes.
I actually think RTS is kinda my favorite Pantera album. It's heavy as a lead shit, but grooves and just pumps at a very solid pace the whole way through.
My top 3 favorite Pantera albums are as follows:
3. Cowboys From Hell
2. Far Beyond Driven
1. Vulgar Display Of Power
Agreed 👍
Awesome review - very enlightening to hear the early stuff even though it was on the better side of terrible. Would be cool to see Them in 23 but I can’t take crowds to good anymore. Thanks Finn! We’ll ride your rocket to the moon 🌙
I have been watching your channel for awhile but this is the video that made me subscribe. I am a guitar player and HUGE Pantera fan! I knew you would pick Vulgar Display for best but I am torn between that and Far Beyond. The only thing we disagree on is Cemetery Gates. Great video, keep it up!
"The Sleep" is a 10/10 song with Dimebag's BEST solo.
Always just assumed 'F-ing Hostile' was their most popular song, but realizing now that I had a good friend (metal/hardcore) who played me (punk) music he knew I would like.
“25 Years” is and always will be my favorite Pantera song.. such a sleeper
I like this, as a casual listener of Pantera and someone who wants to check them out more it's a great video.
I would love to see more of these, and my recommendations - Green Day or Blink (since you stated you like both).
Trendkill for me. Not as many anthems as Vulger or FBD but I legit thinks it's the most solid overall.
I saw Pantera 16 times. My favorite album is Great Southern Trendkill. It was also their best tour with White Zombie. Great Southern Trendkill was years ahead of its time. As a comparison, Metallica had just released Load. LoL
Trendkill is ahead of its time. I'd been a huge fan of Pantera from Cowboys on, and thought Trendkill sucked when it came out. Fast forward 25 later it's my favorite Pantera album.
Thanks for making this Finn. You said everything I think in the order that I think it! Also thanks for shouting out how fucking good and underrated Vinnie was. My favourite metal band, no question.
you hit the nail on the head with this one!
"Over and Out" is an amazing song in my opinion.
"Good Friends and a Bottle of Pills" is obviously their masterpiece.
I am sportng wood just thinking about this.
Yes
Worst song they ever made, excluding 80's albums.
Off topic Finn you always talk about snare sound 311 back in the day great snare sound love the content thanks man
Right away I'm intrigued and want to hear more about your love for 311. They were one of the first bands I got into when I started looking for music outside of my parents' collections. I'm not very familiar with their more recent output, but I still occasionally listen to Music, S/T, and Transistor to this day. I remember their early albums as positive, fun, and interesting musically. They are a band who I think successfully managed to blend genres without veering into parody or cheese. They don't get a lot of love these days, though!
Same here, 311 are amazing, especially their 90s stuff. Transistor is my personal favorite.
I always loved Power Metal. Also, I've got Projects in the Jungle on vinyl. The Great Southern Trendkill will always be my favorite.
I love Panera
Panera bread eh
@@T.Maximus vulgar display of chowder
Reinventing the meal
I'M BRIOCHE!!!!! INHERIT YOUR CARBS! I'M BRIOCHE!!!!
My favorite album is The Great Southern Trend Kill. I don’t hear that from many Pantera fans for some reason. I think it has the most in your face hardcore sound out of them all.
I would like to see more deep dives, great content
Reinventing the Steel is mid but it perfectly captures grilling on a hot Texas summer day or sweating at Six Flags back when they still had the confederate flag as one of the flags
Great southern trendkill is one the most underrated metal records of all time imo
What's really cool about cemetery gates is at the ending when Dimebag and Phil are matching each other's pitches.
I remember buying the “3 From Hell” DVD from Best Buy back in 2010 and I watched it religiously forever.
This video made me happy. Thank you
TGSTK is their strongest album start to finish, in my opinion. I love that record. FBD has my favorite sound of all their records, and Becoming, 5 Minutes Alone, and Strength Beyond Strength are my favorite Pantera songs. The live version of Cemetery Gates on the 101 Proof is superior to the original album version. It's so Pantera. I just love the shit out of it.
Shedding Skin is my shit too
Lets get real now: Live 101 Proof is their best record. I know it doesn't count, becaus it's basically a best off, but there' no better introduction to their music, plus it has two great exclusive songs, one of which is arguably their best track imo.
So fucking glad you acknowledged Becoming! Absolutely agree that it's insanely underrated, probably my all time favourite Pantera song, fucking love it 🤙
My personal favorite is The Great Southern Trendkill. Hits on a different level and cuts deep.
Cowboys from Hell is number 1 for me but do more of these album ranking videos they’re fun to talk about!
TGST, don't even have to see the list.
Numba 1 I mean.
Came into this video certain my order would be different than yours. However, your list exactly matches mine. Cheers!
I politely disagree, and it’s probably because I really got into them when Far beyond driven came out. However, I first got into them via their home videos haha. Anyway, I love cowboys and vulgar but I have really come to appreciate reinventing the steel. Tracks like ‘it makes them disappear,’ ‘I’ll cast a shadow,’ and ‘yesterday don’t mean shit’ are so under rated.
Agreed it wasn't til recently I actually paid close attention to that album and I've gotta say some of the riffs on that album are top fuckin notch. Grew up on all the pantera albums but this one got the least amount of play til recently
@@joshmclaughlin2488 I think the last two tracks on the album are some of my favourite Pantera songs. It's a shame it all came to an end. However, with this new tour I'm sure it will give a new generation the chance to know more about the band.
