Pantera's Best

Review Score: (10/10)
When Pantera crashed onto the metal scene, with Cowboys From Hell, they expanded the bounds of heaviness, power and awesome riffage. Here they refined their groove thrash sound and made it rougher, less melodic and eliminated what was left of the cheesy hair metal singing. The result was their best album and one truly powerful record.

Every song has an abundance of great riffs and solos. All dynamic ranges are covered. In a split of the second, the late Dimebag Darrel's riffs could go from acoustic and mind crushingly heavy. Listen to the riffs in Walk, after the second chorus in This Love and Regular People. Thats something you don't hear anymore.Rex and Vinnie were also able musicians who could keep up well. Phil's vocals, cover all territory from singing, shouts, and screams.

The highlights are Mouth for War, A New Level, Walk, F---ing Hostile, This Love, Hollow and Rise. All the tracks are great though.
R.I.P Dimebag Darrel
