As we all know, the life of the guitar god Dimebag Darrell ended during a tragic incident where a son of a bitch killed him during a show of his other band Damageplan, in which he too played guitar along with his brother Vinnie Paul, in December 8th, 2004. Millions suffered his death back in those days and we all still do for he was a unique guitar palyer and person, as all the people who knew him acknowledge. He may not be with us in flesh but he will be alive forever through his music.
Here is their official thread.

Mine's Far Beyond Driven also.. Almost all of the songs in this album are great.. I think this album is considered by many as groove metal.. Anyway, stand-out tracks for me in this album are the opening song Strength Beyond Strength, Becoming, 5 Minutes Alone, I'm Broken, and my favorite Shedding Skin.. Thanks to Phil and the rest of the dudes of Pantera for the great metal music.. RIP Darrell Lance Abbott (Diamond Dimebag Darrell).. We'll miss you guys..

Have you guys seen the YouTube video of Dimebag when he was 17 years old? Watch it here. That solo is incredible. You can definitely hear the Van Halen and Randy Rhoads influences.

'Shattered' from "Cowboys from Hell" is one of the best Halford impersonations i've ever heard! Phil Anselmo is definetely one of the best vocalists in metal history, i mean just listen to the ending for "Cemetery Gates" when he screams "GAAAAAAATES" and then "The Great Southern Trendkill", with that monstrous growl, and then to most other Pantera songs, where he has such a great razor-sharp voice.  Although IMO Phil is overshadowed by the death of Dimebag Darrell, Darrell has still some of the coolest riffs i've ever heard, especially in the song "Cowboys from Hell". Now i've began to notice how good their drummer is, too! only the bassist remains

Written by Valentin B on 28.01.2008 at 14:07 I agree man, except I don't consider him to be good anymore. In his prime, yeah, definitely he's up there with the greatest metal vocalists of all time because of his extreme range. Not only that, but the his stage presence (before the heroin) was also fucking energetic.

Written by Dangerboner on 31.01.2008 at 02:21 yeah i saw a documentary about pantera once, and he was fuckin insane! back in 93 or 95 i think a pantera show would have been just so awesome! i also like the "Cowboys from Hell" video where they play on a stage and every 10 seconds or so some guy comes from backstage and jumps in the crowd

Written by Lucas on 11.08.2008 at 21:44 Ehh yeah, totally agree... at least I totally disagree about Pantera being the first thing people think about when someone says Metal. First time I heard that statement.

PLease stop the cheesiness concerning dead artists... it's not like you people actually knew the said artist in real life.
