Gary Floyd Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Without Beavis and Butthead, the "This Love" video isn't the same
AboveAverage484 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 "This dude's dad must have kicked his ass when he was a kid." "Dammit, Pantera, didn't I tell you to mow the lawn?!" "Pantera, get your ass in there and get me a beer that isn't warm!"
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Pantera is a band that doesn't really mean much to me anymore, but I still saw the bastards live like six or seven times, and every time but one was balls-out awesome.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Was Phil strung out the one time it wasn't balls-out awesome?
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Ozzfest when I was seventeen, and yes, he was likely quite strung out. Oh, and
NoCalMike Posted February 20, 2009 Report Posted February 20, 2009 Pantera was a good gateway band. You went to one of their concerts knowing little about Metal, but by the time you exited, you had a bunch of new bands you heard about from others to go check out. I think I was 15 when I saw them, and at the time they were probably the heaviest music I listened to, this was back in 1995. They brought me to Slayer, and the rest was history!!!!
Corey_Lazarus Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Pantera is probably the best gateway metal band I've ever heard of. Dime was, no matter how cliche it is to say this now, an amazing guitarist, and Phil's voice is pretty much one of a kind. But listening to the full albums of both Great Southern Trendkill and Reinventing the Steel is such a chore, since both have a few good songs (which also happened to be singles) but mostly kinda filler. <3 GWAR
Red Baron Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 Fuck Nardwaur. Oderus should have knocked him out.
Corey_Lazarus Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 I just love Brockie's answers to everything. Nonsensical and hilarious.
The Metal Maniac Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Ozzfest when I was seventeen, and yes, he was likely quite strung out. Oh, and I've actually held that record in my hands. Still upset I didn't have the money to afford it, just for the laughs.
Gary Floyd Posted February 22, 2009 Report Posted February 22, 2009 Didn't Phil Anselmo have something to do with Soilent Green's Sewn Mouth Secrets and Eyehategod's Dopesick? I know the whole New Orleans scene is incestuous, so just a question.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 Important Metal Albums of the Decade Update: 1. Electric Wizard-Dopethrone 2. !T.O.O.H.!-Order and Punishment. My mind is officially blown. Best non-Dopethrone album I've heard in years 3 and 4. Isis-Panopticon, Oceanic 5. Sleep-Dopesmoker 6. Dying Fetus-Destroy The Opposition 7. Cephalic Carnage-Lucid Interval (No love for this one? Album's fuckin' amazing) 8. Agoraphobic Nosebleed-Altered States of America 9. Red Sparowes-At The Soundless Dawn 10. Pelican-The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw
Corey_Lazarus Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 I'd put Municipal Waste's Hazardous Mutation in there for pretty much starting the thrash revival that's going on today.
goatsack Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 Phil's voice is pretty much one of a kind. pretty much one of a kind? he's just copying kyle thomas
NoCalMike Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 http://www.mayhemfest.com/ Headlined by Slayer & Cannibal Corpse.......................and Marylin Manson Lots of kickass bands going to be there. This thing sounds like it is going to be as big ass Ozzfest(As far as the size of venue, and number of bands), just with a better overall lineup!!! It comes to Sacramento July 10th...I am soooo fucking there!!!
PLAGIARISM! Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Count Grishnackh getting released from prison
Gary Floyd Posted March 12, 2009 Report Posted March 12, 2009 Count Grishnackh getting released from prison Odds that he'll be killed by an angry fan probably not few and far between. At the moment, I'm really liking Obscura's Cosmogenesis at the moment, though Blut Aus Nord and Fen's new albums are the best metal albums of the year so far. Edit: Now that I think about it, Cosmogenesis is the best metal album of the year thus far.
NoCalMike Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Just realized that they Mayhem Fest KICKS OFF in Sacramento......hopefully the bands aren't phoning it in because the next night the tour hits the bay area.
Gary Floyd Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 So, any thoughts on Mastodon's Crack The Skye? It's their proggiest album yet, and holy fuck is "The Czar" fucking incredible.
Urban Warfare Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I'm not a huge fan. It's decent, but its far to much of a departure from Blood Mountain and Leviathan for my liking.
