Holy shit
HOLY SHIT
I never got too far into Pantera, just knew their hits. But holy fucking shit, this album is fucking insane at how disgustingly heavy it is. This is more violent than many death metal bands.
>>
PanterA getting heavier with each album from Metal Magic to Re-Inventing the Steel definitely bucked the trend of most metal bands and should be commended.

Groove metal is to sludge what jump-up is to neurofunk

>>129685486
Yeah, Dimebag and Vinnie truly are the godfathers of modern metal. They have just as much influence as the greats (The Big Four, Sabbath, EVH)

I had a shirt with this album cover on it, it faded over time to the point only the pantera logo was visible
no idea what happened to it, probably became a cleaning rag
I don't even listen to metal anymore

Groove Metal has always been heavier than any non-brutal Death Metal.
>>
>>129695221
Not always true. Pantera was just on the heavy end of the spectrum

Everything that ruined metal is documented in this one album. This album paints a picture of AC/DC shirt wearing pickup truck drivers heading to the meth house after swigging too much malt liquor while watching a marathon of Maury and Dog the Bounty Hunter. It's this single piece of drunken bafoonery that sapped all the creativity out of metal by showing people that they too can make money by playing groove based rock with faux-aggressive vocals and throwing pot leaf designs on t-shirts. It is the prototype for Korn.

Lyrically, everything that's wrong about metal now is found here. Phil Anselmo in all his heroin addled wisdom thought that, instead of coming up with something interesting to talk about, the mundane themes about the "tough street life" would resonate more with the hip-hop culture of mainstream America and, unfortunately, he was right. This was one of the key elements that were needed to allow angry suburban youth and meth head trailer park dwellers to relate with the stupidity of Pantera.

This is barely metal aside from some guitar playing techniques. Pantera is really just groove based rock in how the focus is placed on sparse 2 note rhythm riffs being played for a "swaggering" hip-hop derived feel that will allow suburban kids to "get down with it". It is an urbanized version of banging on rocks in a wasteland. By removing all the intellectual aspects out of metal and dumbing it all down to a series of chugga chugga noises and hillbilly solos.

When the home videos are more memorable for the jokes than the music, you know this band wasn't good. Unfortunately, jokes and some pot leaf design t-shirts were all it took to sell this "cool" album about "real street topics" to the impressionable morons of the day. The birthplace for Limp Bizkit rests in this album

Is pantera groove metal? I like how Dime has some swing to his playing. Can you recc some other bands with a similar style?
>>
>>129696836
You’d like Ted Nugent, Sodom, anything 90’s Dio
>>
>>129691271
I think we established he's based
>>
>>129696836
Exhorder. Once Phil heard the Slaughter in the Vatican '87 demo he decided to stop the glam shit and do groove metal instead. There would be no Pantera without Exhorder.
>>
>>129685486
I don't think Floods is that good
>>
>>129698612
i wish they would just come out and say "yes we 100% aped their style"

Pantera is male chauvinism music and you've to be semi-braindead to enjoy them.

Agreed. Especially since Exhorder don't really care and are friends with them.

You sound gay as fuck. Enjoy that.

Groove Metal on average is heavier than most basic forms of Death Metal.
>>
>>129699564
Nah. Lets go one for one. You post a heavy groove metal song and I'll post a heavier death metal song. I'll even stick to 90s OSDM.
>>
>>129695710
There’s always some fag like this who constantly brings up Vulgar as “the definitive” breaking point when Metal took the biggest shit ever and ruined an entire generation going forward. Fucking KEK. Vulgar is awesome and has some of Dime’s best solos he ever recorded. Get fucked, turbo nigger.

The retard calling me a retard. It says right on the fucking picture its a blog post you dumb fuck piece of shit
>>
Pantera, Gojira, Meshuggah and Lamb of God are heavier than any Melodic Death Metal or any OSDM not named Deicide.
>>
Utter shite like Pantera is a major reason why white men have no cultural or artistic impact anymore.
>>
>>129700565
I agree about the melodeath part but you clearly don't know much OSDM beside surface level stuff if you believe that
>>
>>129700051
>I like floods but I don't like Phil's vocal effects
In general or the stuff on that song specifically where he sings in a very falsetto voice and sounds like a woman.
>>
>>129695710
Y'all niggas are crazy. Vulgar Display of Power is one of the best metal albums of all time.
>>
I got my dick circumcised as an adult man because it's my body and it's my choice. It was at a pantera concert, and Phil Anselmo himself bit my foreskin off with his teeth on stage. And then he said "...well, you're a cow MAN from hell now"!
>>
>>129700965
People who claim this usually don't listen to very much metal.
>>
>>129700965
>>129701235
its not the best pantera album.

>Is pantera groove metal?
yeah although people are starting to call them southern metal too.
>Can you recc some other bands with a similar style?
the closest band I've heard is lamb of god, but they don't really do what you're looking for. you might also check out black label society and corrosion of conformity although they sound even less like pantera.

gojira is for redditors and machine head are for... ifunny.com

>>129701614
Cowboys in Hell was their only better album.

Pantera fans barely listen to any metal at all so their opinions on the genre or its fans are worthless
