Pantera = Metal

Review Score: (8/10)
After a 4 yr. hiatus, these crazy Texas boys returned in 2000 with an album that is so straight ahead metal, it immediately stands out among today's rap-metal breatheren. No DJ's here, just hardcore metal like the blistering opener "Hellbound" and the eerie "I'll Cast A Shadow." "Revolution Is My Name," with Dimebag riffs-aplenty is one of the best songs the band has ever done, while on "Goddamn Electric" Phil Anselmo drops in Sabbath and Slayer references. A couple of the songs are throwaways, which keeps it from being 5 stars, but all in all, this amped up version of "Trendkill" was well worth the wait.
