Pantera

---

anybody here like pantera? im fucking crazy about them

i recently heard avenged sevenfold try to cover 'walk' and it was shambolic. seriously. that synester gates guy tried to do a dimebag solo and flopped it. a7x are okay but theyre no pantera.

yea, i love themwait...no, that was a lie. i dont actually have a clue what ur talking about

fair enough...theyre a metal band that disbanded in 2003, and the original lead guitarist was killed at a gig of his new band Damageplan in 2004 by a guy who shot up the stage. they pretty much revolutionized metal ( couldnt stop my chemical romance from forming though, but who says theyre metal )

they were a good band but I wouldn't say they revolutionised anything. What they did manage was good timing. They were there as that style of metal was gaining more acceptance and as the era of 80s glam metal was, thankfully, dyeing.

They were a great band! Some of the solos in their song were really weak, even for metal standard. Atreyu, I think, is better. Opeths accoustic stuff is the greatest! some really well-done lyrics

I never really liked Danzig's solo shit. It's almost hard to beleave that he fronted the Misfits, who were awsome!Rollins is god... Black Flag has been with me in my darkest hours!

fucking love them. along with metallica,static-x,soilwork,dragonforce,inflames,red hot chili peppers, megadeth,system of a down, and the list keeps goin.its shitty how dimebag died. R.I.P

I alwasy liked Danzig, especial shit like Her black love, Heritic,Devils Plaything.Is it just me or does anyone else here a bit of Jim Morrision in his voice in some shit he does ?Not alot, but once in a while its there.

he is more than a bit Morrison now. Like I said, little worth listening to, post-Misfits.

I love Pantera. I actually got to see them live. Good times.
Phil's new band is cool.

yeah, hes kind of got a jim morrison quality at times,danzig is a prick though. he got punched out for running his mouth at a younger guy backstage to show off. the guy hit him once and he just went down.

Folks tend to like what they grow up on. That said, most guitarists these days can't play half as well as they did in the older metal bands (Jimmy Page, Uli Roth, Michael Schenker, etc). Same thing for most of the glam-rock bands as well. Jeff Beck and Joe Satriani are still doing a pretty good job of covering the bases...but since they're older dudes without the image (and generally only do instrumentals), they don't get much air-time. But they play rings around modern metal bands. I think some of you guys would like 'em if you gave 'em a listen.

yea there cool

Yes there awesome, But they still can't beat my top favorites (Dragonforce, System of A Down, Disturbed, and a ton of other's.) But yes they rock :laughing:

I love Joe Satrianis new CD! Super Colosal! Damn great solo!!Oh! and his song, "Ceremony" has the best effect on guitar!!Sadly, I can only play the intro

Having talent and/or being a prick have nothing to do with being able to take apunch.I like his shit, thats all that matters to me.I like Brett Hull too, and he a prick, so are alot of talented people. Like em for what they do, not what they are.

Yeah, Satriani's latest is his best since "The Extremist" :grin:

I appreciate those guirist, being one myself, but I just can't stand the style of music.

i never got into Rollins but ive heard a lot of Danzig and im a Megadeth fan,and Grvtykllr, im not saying the misfits suck because danzigs a prick- i fucking love the misfits, im just saying danzig acted like a prick and got his.

Misfits are great!Do you listen to Opeth? Or As I Lay Dying?Or.... even better, Black Flag!
