- All you guitar players, get ready to change your underwear. This is the titties right here. The cameraman is literally standing on the front row as Darrel decapitates the entire audience. This is not only a shred-fest of a song (please listen to the studio version too), but you can watch his fingers hitting so many notes. It reminds me of the first time I got to see them live - December 28, 1990 at a small club in Metairie called Guitar Alley. The opening band was the Slugs, who went on to become Crowbar. When Pantera walked out and started "Domination", it was like a controlled explosion - with vanilla-flavored fog choking off your air. I had never experienced a band that tight, and I had already seen Metallica and Megadeth at that point. But I positioned myself there in front of Darrell. He was literally no more than 2 feet from me. His fucking hair was almost hitting me for God's sake. It was - I just don't have the words, dude. I finally grew a pair and jumped onstage for "Primal Concrete Sledge", banging my head next to Darrell and then jumping off before security could grab me. But it was the olden days - Phil invited people onstage so it was beyond crazy from start to finish. There actually is a video of that show out there, but only two tracks (Domination and Psycho Holiday, I think) the rest got trashed during Katrina. The guy's name was Thunder Tyrant who videoed it . . I will be posting more soon
Power metal was a great album so underrated
i love power metal
Yes, truly. "We'll meet again" - one of the best Pantera's song.
Definitely!!
I wonder if any other band would cover this song for an album as a song in the album.
Vinnie's like a fucking metronome!
NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF AS LONG AS PHIL IS ON VOCALS...THIS IS GOLD👹
I Am The Night is excellent too
I don't think they were ever ashamed of it. They acknowledged it. They just moved on.
You must be a new fan who is also very young. Pantera aggressively hid those albums for YEARS! There are even interviews from headbangers ball where Phil is asked during the CFH era if the band will ever do updated versions of Power Metal songs, and he’s like “Nooooooo!”. The Pantera website back, when they were still together before the break up made no mention of those albums. It always said the CFH was their first album. They used get a lot of crap about the glam years back in the 90s. After Dimes death is when they started opening up because it couldn’t be hidden anymore with the major development of the internet, UA-cam and the behind the music documentary. So yeah, they were ashamed of their past, so they lied and hid it for years. I’m 40 years old man…all this crazy stuff was going on in my teen years so I remember very vividly/clearly what went down.
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep em coming Mike Patterson and thank you.
2:04 this riff is pretty challenging to play at that tempo
Diamond Darrell to you...
Phil is the invisible singer
So much hair on Dime
Did he cut it for Cowboys
I remember playing the Sandpiper in Shreveport. It was half rock half stripper club...lol.. thanks for posting...my entire youth was spent with Pantera, every weekend almost from 84 until 92.
I take it u were in a band then?
@@mikepatterson437 yep...met them in Plano in 84 and later played bass in Defcon and Stormbringer..many drunk nights at the Basement, Joe's Garage, the Ranch in Muenster, DCL and my first experience was when my Mom dropped me off at Six Flags with Jerry Abbott and they tore that little theater to pieces 🤘🤘
very cool - I wish I would have known them and gotten to hang with in those days
underrated song!!!
So true and as a guitar player myself, that song is an intense workout of your abilities. Most players (like myself) can't play it. And to think how effortlessly he did it while banging his head - never making a mistake - and just being a metal god onstage . . he was one of a kind, man
@@mikepatterson437 truly a gift from god dime was..🙏🏻
@@mikepatterson437 What surprises me is how tight and skilled they already are. I mean they wrote way more songs after that, but the musical skills and stage presence were already at prime - and super high - level.
Absolutely- fuck to this DAY if you can show me a more intense player, shred machine and writer, that you cannot take your eyes off of, please tell me. I have to change my underwear every time I watch this
Great video! Should be somehow legally broadcast of tv regularly along with every Beatles and Zeppelin song.
Whatever hairspray jokes... This is actually awesome!
I love this era of Pantera, thanks for uploading this!! 🍻🤘
Incredible!! This is my favorite era of dime playing!!!🤘🏼😎🎸
No doubt
Awesome footage, if you got more unreleased videos please put them out
Fuck yes!
Dude, thank you thank you thank you for uploading these!!!
My pleasure dude - so glad the finished product turned out great
Awesome shit dude!
Awesome
how did you get these videos Mike? Thank you from a lifelong Pantera fan.
Man, it was 1988 and I was at LSU. Got a cassette of "Power Metal", fell in love with these guys, and one day someone told me they had a bootleg VHS of a couple of shows. I asked if I could borrow it and check it out, and for the life of me, I cannot remember who it was . . They never asked for it back, I know that much! I would have at LEAST made a copy of it for myself to keep, obviously it was fucking AWESOME - especially at that time. But the reason I know it is the original copy is the handwritten stuff on the tape itself. Not my handwriting by a long shot. Almost looks like a girl wrote the locations and band name. But I always wanted to put this out there and I finally learned how to do UA-cam stuff and got some cool software, it was time . . . glad everyone is enjoying it. Yes more to come and also for anyone into Acid Bath, I myself filmed a show of theirs and want to upload it soon too. The sound quality on it is much better than this one
omfggggggggggggggggggggg POWER METAL
Shread city! Real intent has no boundrys! Love the abbotts!!
Mike petterson is a true hero!
Why didn't Ozzy, Dio, or even David Coverdale snag Dimebag in 1987???
This was their best album. Was all downhill after this.
absolutely brother! however, it wasnt like steep downhill, but yeah their finest for sure
cold
yes! pantera was the best with terry on 3 albums and phil on this album
Great except for focusing on a guy not even playing when the solo was going on. WTF?
Dude you are so correct . . not knowing what that cameraman was smoking, right? And right smack where Darrell's soloing
Fuck ya love this old shit I have never seen thus stuff!!!
🤘🔥🤘
When Phil had hella a lot of hair
Ya tenían la base, Dimebag ya era grande
Wtf I don’t want to see that dudes face we want to see dimes fingers especially on the solo
I love finding more footage before cowboys from hell!
Mustaine did right before So Far So Good So What . .
It would be great if pantera does not feel embarrassed about this album.
Metallica has kill em' all, and they proud of it.
I really don't think they were. They acknowledged it but just moved on from it. There's an interview out there on YT with Dime and Vinnie at Dimes house and they ask them about this era. They didn't seem embarrassed by it at all. Even Dime said, "Man I wouldn't trade my gold spandex for nothing!"
Yea put old videos.
Que mal camarógrafo solo filma a Dimebag
Their looks were glam thats for sure. But their music really wasnt. Too dark and aggressive for true glam. Especially this album! IMO.
You know vicious rumors and bands like destruction or Bathory looked the same then ?
Its classic heavy meta' look then , not glam
PM was Terry meets CFH
@@aarontrainor9918 Its phil on PM
INCREDIBLE!
Glamtera is the best Pantera... period..
