I personally rank Cowboys over Vulgar. It’s what I consider one of the few perfect albums. Probably my third favorite album of all time only behind Master of Puppets and Scenes From a Memory.
I agree. Cowboys is objectively better than Vulgar. But Vulgar has catchier riffs, as the album progresses, and well, that's why they call it "CATCHY" lol. Pleases a lot more people.
It may have a more traditional thrash sound, but personally i think that leads to dimes best guitar work period. Its also so much more fun and doesn't take itself too seriously as the later knuckle dragging tough guy stuff does
Cowboys from Hell is my favorite Pantera album. And Medicine Man is my favorite track. Phil's vocals were the absolute best on it and you heard all the ranges he could do!
Eh. Depends on how we are rating the albums. If we are just going on which albums have the most S tier songs - far beyond driven and vulgar gotta be at the top for me. But I’m just splitting hairs cause all three albums are fucking legendary.
Back in 1995 I was living in New Orleans and was only familiar with Cowboys From Hell onward. My pot dealer (after getting me high) said "Have you heard Pantera's early glam stuff?". Very surreal experience.
@@harrisontownsend910 People always talk about how metal went downhill in the 90s but I couldn’t disagree more. Even regardless of Pantera, the amount of fucking badass death metal that came out of that decade is some of the best metal ever made imo
Use Once is such a monstrous album. Dude sings four songs, ON ONE TRACK, starting with one where he celebrates somebody's death but says he would rather have personally killed the man and then shot himself.
Far beyond driven will probably always remain the sonically heaviest album to billboard #1 ever, seems impossible now that such a heavy album could get there
King's X were credited to inspire Pantera's sound, and their first album "Out of the silent planet" made Rex and Dimebag instant fans. Gretchen Goes To Nebraska and Dogman are my favorite albums of theirs.
@@jakefoxx7978 All great songs you're mentioning. 'Prisoner' is one of my all time favorites, especially the counterparts between the guitar & vocals. Genius stuff in my opinion.
@@krister-guitar26 Summerland is easily the most beautiful song I've ever heard, but Ear Candy has some good tracks like "Sometimes". "Not Just For the Dead" is like walking on another planet made of music
"We'll Meet Again" off of Power Metal is one of Dimebag's best moments ever. I've listened to that solo so many times. That song the "Floods" Outro and also "Becoming" off of FBD are all set as alarms for me to wake up at different times. In some ways, I'd view "Power Metal as being "Cowboys from Hell" with the limiter off. Dimebag shreds at full power, the 80s Golden Age is still in full effect so there are a few crazy parts that are based on directly on Thrash and all bets are off on the guitar.
C tier for power metal is a hard disagree for me, this may not be the iconic pantera sound but it is very solid and dimebag's guitarwork in this is stellar
My rankings: #1: Far Beyond Driven (1994) #2: Vulgar Display of Power (1992) #3: Cowboys from Hell (1990) #4: The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) #5: Reinventing the Steel (2000) #6: Metal Magic (1983) #7: Projects in the Jungle (1984) #8: Power Metal (1988) #9: I Am the Night (1985)
I would have put "I Am The Night" a little higher, but I saw Pantera a few times when they were still slugging it out in the DFW clubs. The very first time I saw them Terrance was still singing for them (played rhythm guitar also). Then Phil joined. They had just released "Power Metal" and were still playing some of the old songs. I guess you had to be there, but some of those older "Glaze" songs translated pretty well live. And Darrel? Wow 🤯😵💫 Even in the "glam" days he was a phenom on guitar. 🤯😵 The last time I saw them live was in a big theater in Dallas and Cowboys was out. They had two great local bands open for them and they put on a fantastic show. It was shortly after that they started bulldozing their path to worldwide fame. It's my opinion only, but I think "I Am The Night" was the best of their first 3 recordings.
wow “far beyond driven” is 30 years old this year in 2024! i was 23 when this album 💿 came out and still have it on CD and it’s also the 20th anniversary of Dimes death RIP 🪦 Bro 🤘🏼🎸🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🎶🎼
A friend of mine bought Projects In The Jungle when it came out. We were in the local record store, and store employees would always spin a few tracks of all the releases they got in. My friend and I were impressed with the guitar playing on it, and my friend bought tons of obscure metal albums anyways, so he bought it. Fast forward to when I was in the military in 1990, and a metal head I was stationed with told me I needed to hear this new band, Pantera - Cowboys From Hell. I was like: "Pantera? They aren't new..." 😊
Havent heard most of their pre phil stuff but everything 88 and on is gold, power metal has one of my all time fav pantera songs, we'll meet again, which surprised the fuck outta me
I first listened to Pantera's glam albums as a joke, figuring I'd have a good laugh and never play them again. It's 20 years later and I'm still listening to them on a regular basis
It was Walk and Vulgar Display that got me into Pantera when I was a teenager. I watched that music video so many times. And the Domination live vid from Moscow gives me chills every time I watch it.
I'm african american and I love Pantera. I personally didn't care about the outrage, but people need to understand that the man was still reeling from Dimebag's death, substance abuses, the fact that Vinnie never talked to Phil and he passed away so things never got settled (he blamed Phil for Dime's death), the man was in a VERY bad situation that led him to do and say some really stupid shit all those rough years and he owned that. Its close as comparable to Bam Margera having issues dealing with Ryan Dunn's death. He has gotten older and more sober. I seen LOG and Pantera in Syracuse NY last August and it was a blast as my first time seeing them live. So honestly, given that context, I personally did not take offense, the man had demons and I'm glad Phil still around to this day.
showing the Nazi salute and shouting white power should still be a career ending move. No matter how sad you are, no one needs to do that. Metal fans are too forgiving in their quest to have fun.
@@gulliverthegullible6667 So modern vocalists siding with the people who support hamas aren't free from that same career ending thing? I mean they might as well be modern day n4zis.
@@gulliverthegullible6667 The most pathetic thing, is that I don't think Phil Anselmo actually believes in that shit. He gets together with black metalheads, like Derrick Green from Sepultura, he recently performed with him, and no one forces him to do that. I think Phil is severely disturbed when it comes to mental health, as lack of self-esteem and identity as well. A fascinating case from Psychiatry's point of view.
@@HeathenDance interesting. So you think he did all that shit because he was seeking attention or he just felt like it in his deranged mind? I still think someone like him should be shown the consequences of his actions.
@@gulliverthegullible6667 I believe his internal conflicts led him to drink and do drugs in excess. He is probably bipolar or schizophrenic. Sexual issues may have something to do, as well. Specially in a macho-man environment, where you can't show vulnerability, much less being a famous frontman of a metal band, it was too much for him to handle. Although his lyrics for the songs "Suicide Note PT 1 and 2" are already a cry for help. These individuals may have very destructive behaviours. Towards themselves and others. Even those close to them. Phil, when he was high, also used to mock Dimebag on stage. Very humilliating, in front of the fans. Phil also insulted Metallica for selling out, when Load came out. Very immature, really, from a fellow musician. Which even provoked a funny response from Lars, making reference to Pantera's Glam Days, wearing make up and what not. But I agree, such actions, even if only through words, should have consequences.
Trendkill is my favorite Pantera album, possibly my favorite album of all time, but it's probably a product of it coming out when I was 18. I remember getting my CD from the Warehouse, after I tied an onion to my shoe, which was the style at the time, then I put it in my discman, pressed play, and I think I started drooling. I don't think I felt the same way about pressing play on a new album, having never heard any of the tracks, until Mastodon's Leviathan. And I was just thinking "wow how my taste changed over that long period of time..." 8 years. Those two albums are 8 years apart.
They originally had a vocalist called Donny Hart and a bass player called Tommy D. Bradford. The first three albums was produced by Jerry Abbott also known as The Eld'n. The father of the Abbott brothers. A well known country writer and producer.
CFH gets my vote for their best album. Dimebag’s guitar work is face-meltingly awesome, especially on the intro to heresy and the solo for cemetery gates. What really puts it above the later ones for me is a palpable sense that the band had fun making it (plus Anselmo’s vocals sound the best on this one). By the way, your channel helped push me towards getting my first electric guitar in March, so thanks!
Dimebag very much enjoyed the musical stylings of one Mr. Edward Van Halen. He cited Eddie as one of his primary influences. Which is why Eddie Vam Halen arrived at Dime's funeral with that yellow and black Van Halen II guitar and placed it in Darrell's casket. It remains buried with him today. Eddie Van Halen....class act all the way,that one was.
Regarding the drastic change from glam to groove metal, another of Pantera's many controversies was the accusation that they borrowed/ripped off the groove metal sound from Exhorder. Exhorder themselves don't really have beef with Pantera but their fanbase did.
Bradley, thank you for always making me smile. School has been insanely stressful and your videos have been extremely helpful to get me through it. Thank you so much.
It Makes Them Disappear into I’ll cast a Shadow on through the fade out was a really weird, although unintentional, swan song for that band. Chills every time.
While Pantera’s influence especially on 90’s metal is undeniable, they also changed the metal fashion pretty much overnight in 1990 and all of sudden as a metal fan you could wear a tank top and cargo shorts instead of jeans and a band t-shirt.
I Am the Night is one of my personal favourites. Maybe I can enjoy it more because english isn't my first langage, which implies that I don't feel as much cringe from bad lyrics-although I perfectly understand them, and it's quite enjoyable from my point of view. I never miss an opportunity to blast it during parties, whenever someone asks me to put music on their speaker (no one understands any word that is sung, but it would certainly be fun if they did).
Thanks Bradley! I'd never heard much before Power Metal, but that and Cowboys were always my faves... Hard Ride is an absolute banger :D P.S. Proud to be Loud o Donnie Darko!!
Long Time Pantera Fan and I must say Steel is so damn underrated...I personally feel like it´s musically the most grown up album they made. It´s 200% Pantera. It is one of those Albums that grow on you the more often you listen to it. Perfection. But it´s not my favorite Album because I can´t pick just one. Really nice Video Bradley :D
My fav songs are from the two albums you said you didn't care for much: Far beyond Driven and Great Southern. Two best albums IMO. Vulgar Display is good too but I'd listen to the mumbling track "Good friends and a Bottle of pills" 20 times in a row before I listen to Walk again. I was also in a Pantera cover band so that might be why. Everyone always wanted us to play Walk and we got really sick of that song. It's also just so simple and repetitive. I will never willingly listen to that tune again. The Good friends and Pills song really didn't bother me like it did everyone else. I was pretty young when I heard it for the first time so I just accepted it as part of the albums sound. Now everyone has a video making fun of that tune. The music is actually kinda of cool on that tune.
Fun fact: Dime sang those specific lyrics (5:30) for live performances of Metallica's Seek & Destroy you can vaguely hear that in a live performance you can easily find on here from 1984 which predicted the song Dime later sang 4 years later, they were heavily influenced by Metallica so you can sort of hear where their sound comes from in Power Metal up to the actual albums.
This was a super fun one! What do you think of our rankings? What's YOUR favorite Pantera album??
Vulgar Display
The great southern trendkill problably, either that or cowboys

Vulgar Display is my favourite, but Trendkill would be a very close second.
The jump from average glam metal band in the 80s and go into CFH... is fucking MAMMOTH!

@@yessirskis7780 I’m gunna pretend I didn’t just hear you say that…..dime would be setting of bottle rockets and fire crackers at you for that

Slaughtered is my all time favorite Pantera track. So brutal.
Phil Anselmo was feeding them Death Metal as influence, in those days. It shows on the Far Beyond and Trendkill albums.
Correction: you have to listen to pantera because it’s the law.
Reinventing the steel is so good, the Terry Date mix makes that album almost one of my favorites

I never miss an opportunity to blast it during parties, whenever someone asks me to put music on their speaker (no one understands any word that is sung, but it would certainly be fun if they did).
Awesome album.
Back in the day when I first heard Walk, I thought he was saying "BREATHE, STRUT, WALK, are you talking to me, ARE YOU TALKING TO ME".
Completely agree with your tier list for once!
Thanks Bradley! I'd never heard much before Power Metal, but that and Cowboys were always my faves... Hard Ride is an absolute banger :D
P.S. Proud to be Loud o Donnie Darko!!
Long Time Pantera Fan and I must say Steel is so damn underrated...I personally feel like it´s musically the most grown up album they made. It´s 200% Pantera. It is one of those Albums that grow on you the more often you listen to it. Perfection. But it´s not my favorite Album because I can´t pick just one. Really nice Video Bradley :D
Agreed. Criminally underrated album
They got that sound from Exhorder
Hi Bradley, I'm from Brazil and man I don't understand anything you said, but with your editing and your humor I can at least understand
Thank you Exhorder for Pantera.
Are you planning to do a SEPULTURA episode?
Reinventing the steel and power metal are my favorites
My fav songs are from the two albums you said you didn't care for much: Far beyond Driven and Great Southern. Two best albums IMO. Vulgar Display is good too but I'd listen to the mumbling track "Good friends and a Bottle of pills" 20 times in a row before I listen to Walk again. I was also in a Pantera cover band so that might be why. Everyone always wanted us to play Walk and we got really sick of that song. It's also just so simple and repetitive. I will never willingly listen to that tune again. The Good friends and Pills song really didn't bother me like it did everyone else. I was pretty young when I heard it for the first time so I just accepted it as part of the albums sound. Now everyone has a video making fun of that tune. The music is actually kinda of cool on that tune.
you done well. i completely agree.
Dang you fucked everything... hey anyone, listen to every album on your own.. so much fun.
Power Metal is so easily their best and it's criminally insane that they pretend it doesn't exist.
You should totally do SOAD at some point!
Still strange how they went from Kiss with the amps turned up to inventing groove metal
Bro - I will ONLY dance like you did to Revolution Is My Name at every gig I attend. Thanks
Great Southern Trendkill and Reinventing the Steel are my fav albums by them haha underrated as hell, IMO
Fun fact: Dime sang those specific lyrics (5:30) for live performances of Metallica's Seek & Destroy you can vaguely hear that in a live performance you can easily find on here from 1984 which predicted the song Dime later sang 4 years later, they were heavily influenced by Metallica so you can sort of hear where their sound comes from in Power Metal up to the actual albums.
How you forget Vinnie Paul's name?
If you want to die, you should do Buckethead next :D (I swear he has like hundreds of albums)
might not have too but we still want too
The Glaze Southern Trendkill
This is a very good one.
Far Beyond Driven is their best album
