i really liked Pantera lot in high school but not as much anymore. i can't stand the double bass sound and how polished everything is.. that being said i'll stand by The Great Southern Trendkill, Official Live and Far Beyond Driven any f-ing day!
whenever you ask someone who knows nothing about heavy metal who their favorite metal band is, their answer is always "pantera"
and the point of your comment is???
Pantera is one of my fav bands and one of the reasons why i got into metal in the first place, same could be said for alot of people, so what is so bad about that?
i am a firm believer that cemetery gates is one of the best songs ever written!
i love pantera.

My first "rock/metal" gig was Pantera way back in 1991 supporting Megadeth talking about "jumping in the deep end" saw them a few more times over the years and even got Rex's plectrum!!
London 1996 Cardiff 2000 Paris 2006 and London 2007.
I thought that people who don't know anything about heavy metal say their favorite bands are Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.
Does anyone else think that Pantera had a really unique sound? Part of it was Anselmo's voice.
Dimebags guitar too..You can recognize it anywhere..I would call it a signature sound I guess..Only album I didn't really care for was Reinventing the Steel

and that crappy drum sound! no disrespect, i really like Pantera but as i stated previously, that drum sound on their middle records sucks.
I remember putting on Greath Southern Trendkill back in the day and thinking ..."oh my od... this is the heaviest album ever made" It hurt to listen to it at the time.
Never been that much of a fan of Pantera. I like the music just fine, but don't care too much for the vocals.
I agree with that totally, I think the music is GREAT but I'm not a fan of the bulldog-with-sorethroat singing style that Anselmo (and many other metal singers) has.

by the way check out Hellyeah with Vinnie Paul on drums and Chad (lead singer of Mudvayne) its some pretty good stuff
Just a fucking badass band. Not a single weak album, imo.
Walk will always be one of the songs that gets me pumped up no matter how many times i hear it.
Their cover of planet caravan was very good on far beyond driven (underated album)

Are you saying that people who don't know anything about metal mention Metallica as a favorite band?
Are you dumb or just un-educated?
Surely Metallica aren't what they used to be, but they are without a doubt of the most influential and greatest (thrash)metal bands ever.
Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, ...And Justice For All, Black Album; All are metal masterpieces.
You CANNOT deny the influence that Metallica have had on many bands.

you are correct. i tend to block those out, but my statement was flawed.
Cowboys through far beyond are the ones i enjoy the most would have been more acurate.

Love them. I've seen them five times.

And agree with the Cemetry Gates comment, which is probably what most people who know little about metal would do, lol.;)
My wife is a dental hygeinist and has cleaned Rex's teeth before. Rock!
