Much love. Colour means nothing when it comes to music or life. I love metal and the golden era of hip-hop music and I'm white. But even if you liked One Direction it means nothing. You should feel welcome everywhere you go. If I saw you at a Pantera concert we'd be headbanging to one of the best metal bands of all time. My bro saw them many times and said he had nothing but respect for anyone that were there. Even if they fought in the mosh pits. Like Nas said ''Not for popularity reasons, but for the love of the art''
Just to be clear. They aren’t together because the guitarist was murdered on stage playing with the new band him and his brother started after Pantera broke up. His brother, Vinnie Paul, the drummer died last year of heart failure. RIP Abbott brothers
Hard to believe these guys were loaded on Heroin, Booze and Weed....and could STILL play top notch....Hardest metal band Ever, don't care what anyone says.
Saw them at the 1998 Dynamo Open Air festival in The Netherlands. They started the set with Walk. The whole field turned into a giant mosh pit. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Been to multiple Pantera shows, and was always in the front. Let me tell you, Pantera mosh pit were the most insane pits!!!! The energy level was high, and the atmosphere was amazing. Lost count at the number of bodies flying over me, and people landing on my head, while I was headbanging. Loved every minute of their shows!! Miss them greatly.

Word! This is favorite Pantera album. And I started lifting weights and just got physically and mentally fit to take on shit. I'm 43 now and I feel I need to do the same thing again. Lol
Had the privilege to see them 3 times in 91, 94 and 96- the last one at a club show for the release of Great Southern Trendkill. The show in 94 was at the Sunken Gardens in San Antonio. Only concert I ever went to where chairs were torn out of the concrete and bonfires were set in the lawn seats! Amazing shows, all of them. RIP Dimebag and Vinnie
I was at a Pantera show in 1997 here in Texas ( I still have the ticket stub with Machine Head and Coal Chamber) and was aggressive as hell.. it was definitely step in or step away because these guys did not fuck around.. there was always a sense of "if you are half assed about us, go to a a safe spot."

Crazy, I saw them with Anthrax and Coal Chamber in Dallas. We came in during Coal Chambers set and a dude was being rolled out of the pit on a stretcher. Anthrax played caught in a Mosh and the gates dividing the pit from the people in the stands broke open. When Pantera came out people started throwing flaming shirts and setting off fireworks in the pit. I had some friends that saw them play with White Zombie and Type O Negative at Reunion arena(basketball and hockey venue). He said they were ripping up the wood planks that covered the ice and were setting them on fire and using them to crowd surf on. They also had to pay for damages to every venue they played in, which I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if it totaled in the millions by time they called it quits.
Awesome band. Vinnie Paul was a drumming god. Dime bag was killed miles from my home in the north side. Both brothers.. Both ledgends. Sucks they are dead.
I saw Pantera live 9 times. They had no equal to the amount of energy that they exude. The shows themselves were electric (in many ways), and the songs would take on a whole new level when you were standing there beholding them. The pits were a lot more mellow than some people remember, if you fell over (which I did many times), people will and would go out of their way to make sure that you got back onto your feet; perhaps as a way of saying "i'll knock you out, but only if you are standing on your feet." I had a huge guy (probably 6'4"+ and 300 lbs.) pick up me (5'7" 150 lbs.) and swing me around by my head in the pit. When he put me back down, he laughed at me, because I didn't miss a beat and kept on moshing. He screamed loudly, "Go get 'em, Little Man!!" and I did. That was at Ozz Fest at Polaris Amphitheater in Columbus, Ohio, the first reunion of Black Sabbath with Ozzy. There was a riot when Ozzy didn't perform (he had laryngitis), and the crowd rioted. There were riot police, helicopters, the crowd set the pavilion on fire, they flipped a car, they destroyed a few shop booths, and tore down the wall in the back..... good times. I brought a piece of the wall home as a keepsake. That was just 1 of the shows, and I will never forget it. R.I.P. Abbot brothers, you are missed.
Got my first taste of Pantera live at The Ranch in Muenster, TX in 1985. Caught dozens of shows over the next couple of years in Muenster, Ft. Worth, and Dallas. Great memories!
Pantera got kicked out of the City of Amarillo, Texas! They rented 24 hotel rooms and knocked out all the walls in between each room to make 1 big party room!
I saw Pantera when I was in 7th grade( was a 18 over show but I was kind of a drum "prodigy" as a kid and knew the venue manager because I had opened for other bands there. It was wild. Had the best seat in the house , front row of balcony right next to the stage. Hit a joint and had a beer , thought I was hardcore. That show and Slipknot (in 99) changed my life.
Even my hip hop buddies liked Pantera, they were practically mainstream too. They ruled the Earth in the 90s and no Metal band since has had as big an impact.
Pantera, neurosis and biohazard. In Buffalo around 1997-1998. What a show. They closed the set with planet caravan. Pantera was THE BEST metal band. They shredded harder than anyone else, they partied harder than anyone else and they were 50X more humble than anyone else. Dime was and is THE epitome of what a heavy metal guitarist should be. He could play anything and he would play anything to perfection. Vinny, what more can you say about Vinny? Rex held it all together and Phil? That dude was the frontman of the 90’s. Nobody could ever match his intensity or his wit. He was very much in touch with the crowd and demanded a lot from patrons of a Pantera show! RIP Vin and Dime for the world is much more boring without the Abbott brothers.
The founding members, 'Dimebag' Darrel and Vinnie Abbott, are unfortunately no longer with us, but vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Robert 'Rex' Brown are still out there. Phil's current band, Philip Anselmo and the Illegals, are playing Pantera set on tour right now. I was lucky enough to see them live twice, last time on the Reinventing the Steele tour in Dallas with Soulfly and Morbid Angel. Like you see in the clip, they were pure energy live. I actually met Vinnie and Dime at a after party following a Rob Zombie concert in Dallas. Two of the coolest most humble people in the world. I won't lie, I cried my eyes out when Dime died, the wold lost a lot when he was taken from us.
In the early 90’s, specially in the clubs, some bands can turn the whole experience up to 11, but Pantera turned it up to 30 ! Nothing you could fully describe. You’d definitely have to experience, and survive ! Nobody could shut down these over occupied clubs, in fear of a riot, and the oxygen levels were even low, making it hard to breathe since everyone in the club being physical, took up more oxygen, and it wasn’t replaced quick enough. Imagine at least half a dozen people stage diving at any one time. It was that “ ultimate party band “ that propelled them to rock god status.
When my brother died last year I must have played the song 80,000 times my brother was a phenomenal guitarist who loves Pantera as well as I do I hope wherever they are now they're shredding together
I agree I miss pantera badly... I grew up with these guys, along with made in the Megadeth, Metallica Judas priest , Ozzy Black Sabbath, there rock gods in my book🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻☠️☠️👍👍
Pantera single handedly saved 90s metal. When grunge came along I needed something to hang on to. Long Live Metal \m/... it saves my life every day I shit you not.
It's just Texas swagga' mah' brotha'!! Dimebag Darrell was a one of a kind Guitarist, Groove for days, and his brother Vinnie on Drums!! They are no longer with us and the world of Metal will always remember them... R.I.P. saw them in '92.
I saw them at my first Monsters of Rock festival at Donnington U.K. back in '94 along with Therapy?, The Wildhearts, Terrorvision, Skin, Sepultura, Zakk Wylde's band Pride & Glory, Headswim, Extreme, Cry of Love, Biohazard (where there was a mass stage invasion & the plug got pulled!) & headliners Aerosmith. At one point I was crowd surfing while wearing a stars & stripes inflatable American football helmet. people were throwing all kinds of stuff, like bottles of piss, but when Pantera came on people started throwing joints onto the stage like some kind of mass offering, later I threw my Pantera T-shirt up on stage & Phil, the singer caught it, showed it off, laid it over the moniter, then later threw it back into the crowd where the moshpit turned into a pack of wolves, tearing it apart trying to claim it, or at least get a piece. Fucking amazing day!
Seen pantera 6 times. Met dimebag once. The most brutal show ever. Broken nose and chipped tooth. Also caught a plastic cup.dime threw. and it was the show, the walk video was filmed at. Amazing show.
I was lucky to meet them and see them over a dozen times. Definitely my favorite live band of all time. But my favorite concert was in 2006 November 5th at the Worcester Palladium. I got to see Celtic Frost. My bday was midnight. I ended up getting the set list autographed and the music from the show on cd. A friend got me it for my bday.
In the 90s I saw Pantera with Megadeth and White Zombie at an outdoor venue. It was an amazing experience! I was walking back from concessions or the restroom or whatever, in the main aisle, between the pavilion seating in front of the stage and the general admission "lawn" seats. A mosh pit erupted out of nowhere and swallowed me whole! Lol my glasses got busted and everything...it was AWESOME!
You're not talking about Pine Knob/DTE are you? If so, I was also at that show. We were at the bottom of the lawn against the railing, at least until the railing was pulled out of the ground. There was a pit right in front of us in that paved area for the entire show. A skinhead about three feet in front of me punched some dude in the face so hard I could feel it through the ground! No way in hell was I jumping into that mess!
@@JoseValdez-tb9nf As far as I'm concerned, it's STILL Pine Knob. That was one hell of a show, but I'm not 16 anymore. Don't think I could do any pit these days, let alone a Pantera pit.
That’s really cool that you can “hear” their unique sound compared to every other band out there. Pantera plays a sub-genre of Metal called Groove Metal. Great reaction video.
This song was initially something Dimebag came up with to use as a loud,rude alarm to wake Vinnie up. Then it evolved into one of the most badass metal anthems of all time!
Brother, This is hands down by far my favorite song. The riff, the way the vocals are tracked. Just pure fuckin adrenaline for me. Plus 92 to 94 Vulgar and Driven era was the best years of my life. I miss this band so much. Its a Damn shame Phil wasted so much time with whatever he was up to and. A billion times more a waste Dime being murdered on stage. ROCK ON DUDE......Play this song late at night in your car with the windows down and the volume high as it goes. Adds like a whole nother gear and 100hp to your car.
I saw Pantera ones in Seattle ´95. I was not in the standing crowd but seated. But they were crazy on stage and the athmosphere was really intense. Loved it. I remember people throwing some weed on stage and Phil would light up! So happy I got to see them 🤘👌
I saw them back in 97. My friend got his nose broken in the pit! I was lucky and managed to not break anything lol. He had the biggest grin on his face walking up to me with blood running down his face I was like dude, your nose!!! I took him over to the rest room so he could see it and wash off. We got back and he ran back into another pit! It was a great experience!!!
Got to see them 2 times back in the day. Awesome shows, they really gave it all. Also, by far the most pot being smoked than any other show I've been to,. and that's including the Greatful Dead. Shit, their back drop was a giant pot leaf live. Contact high for every one.lol. but true.
I was in a pit, at the Aragon Ball Room ( Brawl Room ), in Chicago....It was Crazy Energy, but I wished I watched the show closer....I was in the PIT , for half of it......I got a bloody nose, but really got to enjoy the show, involved with others, and the Energy, and Power of Pantera, raging us on LIVE!....( side note ) one of the dudes, that hung with me in the PIT, the whole time, was a Brother! =D
hahhahahahah... no fuckn way. Thats awesome bro. Thank you for sharing! Thats one thing I have read from some of the comments. All the guys that were in the pit, "felt" the show but did not "see" it.
Got to see them in Columbus Ga. early 90s Cowboys From Hell tour. They actually opened for skid row. The first song was Cowboys From Hell and when it kicked in the floor EXPLODED!!!!! My girlfriend got elbowed in the mouth and I think I might be the guilty party . Awesome show!!!! When skid row took the stage we just found a seat
T, ONCE AGAIN, YOU HAVE THE BEST RUclips CHANNEL, OTHERS TRY TO IMITATE YOU, BUT THEY DO NOT COME CLOSE BROTHER, KEEP ON ROCKIN, PEACE TO THE WORLD, COUSIN FIGEL
mosh pits were a healthy and therapeutical form of violence that had an unspoken code of conduct. you hit and get hit but you knew it wasn't ever personal. pantera pits were in a league of their own though. the ferocity and severity was intimidating to say the least. in their 3rd home video 3 watch it go theres a short part where a black kid with a visibly broken nose says " broken nooose with panteraaa in chicagooo" in all smiles. it was such a great unmatched release that you had no choice but to come out happy and floating from all you left behind in the pit.
nice 'reaction' video mate....cool to see how into it you were. You obviously know your music, the era and how they put a sound like this together. Your comments are bang on mate. I was lucky enough to see Pantera down here in NZ in the early 90's..and I can tell you, as a guitar player, seeing Dimebag play live was such a treat.....unique in every way. His sound, riffs..everything..you can tell its him. As you alluded to with the band in general. I like what you do bro...subbed. Have a great xmas and holiday season. Cheers
Shout out to Beavis and Btthead back in the day playing this video on their show and exposing me to Pantera! Y'know, when I think of it they were like the original reactors :P
Pantera is in another level no other band sound like them back in the day and even now, is a shame how they finish the thing smh... Great reaction btw please react to one song of them that just two or three people react to until this days is call it "Regular People" of the álbum Vulgar Display of Power (1992) that song is pure greatness and is so underrated... Cheers man!!
Sure. And yes you're 100% correct this band had a unique sound but most. Importantly they had the attitude and aggression not many metal bands had during this time.
I was 17 when I saw them @ Ozzfest 2000. Just, the best. Better than the album versions; their live show was off the hook. I remember a knock-down-drag-out type fight broke out in front of me; these two dudes were beating the shit out of each other. They eventually got dragged away by security all bloody and shit. After the song was over Phil did not hesitate to keep the peace saying that "This hear is about love and family and we don't need to be fightin' and shit, it don't belong here. So shut that shit down right now, you can get crazy without hurtin' one another" One of the best shows ever. Pantera forever. \,,/ \,,/
Had the pleasure to see Pantera once in Sweden (we didn't get them very often over here) in 2000 when they did the Reinventing the Steel tour and it was just... Wow... So incredible. Phil was a mess because of his drug abuse. But it was it was one of the greatest shows I've been to regardless. Pit? There wasn't a pit. The entire audience was bouncing up and down and head banging. But I guess the whole venue was one giant mosh.
I had the privilege of seeing Pantera live 3 times. Twice at Wendler Arena (now The Dow Event Center) in Saginaw Michigan and once at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills Michigan (where they were the opening band for Black Sabbath). With Pantera it didn't matter if they played in front of 50 people or 50 thousand, you knew you were at a Pantera show!! I actually cried when I heard that Dimebag was murdered. Here is a link to a live performance of In This River by the band Black Label Society. The singer/lead guitar player of BLS uses the song as a tribute to his good friend Dimebag (he wrote the song before Dimebags death). I think you will really like it: ruclips.net/video/6eK3sd7XcX0/видео.html
Their pit was insane. I remember seeing them on ozzfest 2000. I was standing on the lawn by the barricades. When they hit the stage people in the grass tore the barricades down and rushed the the seating area to get to the pit. If you have ever scene the trailer for world war z. The rush of zombies running at you. That's what it looked like. They played a great set. Godsmack had to follow that. And fans it the grass were throwing chunks of grass into the pavilion. They threatened to walk off stage. if they didnt stop throwing the grass. They played as well. Good night over all
@@timish71 Great story tho.🖒 I saw that tour. At my show Everyone was sitting down until Godsmack played and it started to feel like a concert. Then Pantera opened with Yesterday Dont Mean shit and the place went crazy. Ozzy was cool too, but Pantera was by far the best live act
There's no actual official film clip for this one that I know of,but I want to see your reaction to "Strength Beyond Strength ",the first track off "Far Beyond Driven "(same album that "I'm Broken " is from). IT IS THE BEST WAY TO START AN ALBUM EVER
Saw them with the original Black Sabbath members in San Antonio in 2001, wish the Brothers were still here with us , so many great musicians came out of Texas but these two were special
Update: It was just announced Pantera front man Philip Anselmo will be supporting SLAYER on their farwell tour with a *FULL SET OF PANTERA* songs. This is everyones opportunity to hear Pantera songs performed live by the singer for the first time in *EIGHTEEN YEARS* i haven't missed a tour by Anselmo in two decades. Ive heard Phil play 3 total Pantera songs in that time. *THIS IS RARE.* Go, have fun!!!
@@TheAdventuresofTNT I am serious. The tour is in November. Tickets go on sale *Friday.* Philip H Anselmo & The Illegals is his band. They will be opening the concert. So if u go, do *NOT* arrive late. I was fortunate to see Pantera live a few times. This certainly will *NOT* be the same. It *will* be a great tribute to the band and all their achievements. Slayer opened for Phil & Pantera on their final tour in 2001. Now, 18 years later Philip Anselmo will open for Slayer on their final tour. I highly recommend anyone even remotely interested in Pantera or Slayer music go to this tour. Especially if u didnt see Pantera.
Not the same, I’ve checked out some of their performances, Phil isn’t what he used to be, and the Illegals musical chops are nowhere near anything remotely close to Pantera. See the Slayer show for them as one of their final performances ever!!!!!!
@@KidPedu71 Phil sounds awesome in 2019. You guys never quit with his voice. Christ people been saying he lost his voice since 1991 😂 Some nights his voice is fried some nights its killer.
I saw them almost every weekend here in shreveport-bossier. Before they got big and I never seen them again. Being a drummer I was always talkin to Vinny Paul.
I remember when Carl's Jr. put out a commercial with this song playing in the background. I immediately went out and got me Carl's Jr!!!!! Someone is a marketing genius ;-)
@@jayray6488 eyehategod's a whole other level from Crowbar though, as far as shock value to new listeners. Crowbar's super Sludgy, but the grooves are tasty as fuck & actually really palatable for those unaccustomed to skull-fuckingly heavy music. Imo they're the ultimate starter band for Sludge. eyehategod is..well, eyehategod. :p Still a great listen, but WAY more abrasive, & 5x as likely to turn off virgin ears. It's like the difference between Metallica & Slayer.
I partied with them in 1992 on the Vulgar Display of Power Tour. I have backstage passes in Portland Oregon at the Roseland Theater. Smoke a lot of joints and had a lot of laughs. If you don't like the show
I got to see them here in Cleveland back in either 91' or 92' memoey is a little hazy anyway in a little known establisment called Flashe's 😆 Ah the good old days
I had the pleasure of seeing them with the Deftones and White Zombie in 95. Best show ever. R.I.P. Vinnie and Dime Bag. Great reaction. You should check out Hostile from Pantera.
Pantera is the greatest metal band ever!

Pantera had a rawness that they never lost. Never watered down or over-produced. Their sound was SICK.

I brought a piece of the wall home as a keepsake. That was just 1 of the shows, and I will never forget it.
R.I.P. Abbot brothers, you are missed.
Got my first taste of Pantera live at The Ranch in Muenster, TX in 1985. Caught dozens of shows over the next couple of years in Muenster, Ft. Worth, and Dallas. Great memories!
Pantera got kicked out of the City of Amarillo, Texas! They rented 24 hotel rooms and knocked out all the walls in between each room to make 1 big party room!
DAMN!!!! Now this is what im talking about. Stories like this are what you don't find anywhere. Thanks for sharing. Thats insane.
OMFG!! LMAO
I know Phil at least was effin nuts.
They were some hard rockin' Mo Fo's. What a senseless act for dimebag Darrell to be murdered onstage after parting ways with Pantera.
RIP Dime and Vinnie---brothers in Metal \m/. forever
Oh yes, what was I thinking..? Fuck I forgot Vinnie was dead too...😢
I saw Pantera when I was in 7th grade( was a 18 over show but I was kind of a drum "prodigy" as a kid and knew the venue manager because I had opened for other bands there. It was wild. Had the best seat in the house , front row of balcony right next to the stage. Hit a joint and had a beer , thought I was hardcore. That show and Slipknot (in 99) changed my life.
Even my hip hop buddies liked Pantera, they were practically mainstream too. They ruled the Earth in the 90s and no Metal band since has had as big an impact.
Pantera, neurosis and biohazard. In Buffalo around 1997-1998. What a show. They closed the set with planet caravan. Pantera was THE BEST metal band. They shredded harder than anyone else, they partied harder than anyone else and they were 50X more humble than anyone else. Dime was and is THE epitome of what a heavy metal guitarist should be. He could play anything and he would play anything to perfection. Vinny, what more can you say about Vinny? Rex held it all together and Phil? That dude was the frontman of the 90’s. Nobody could ever match his intensity or his wit. He was very much in touch with the crowd and demanded a lot from patrons of a Pantera show! RIP Vin and Dime for the world is much more boring without the Abbott brothers.
I saw that same line up in Saginaw Michigan, must have been the same tour.
The founding members, 'Dimebag' Darrel and Vinnie Abbott, are unfortunately no longer with us, but vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Robert 'Rex' Brown are still out there. Phil's current band, Philip Anselmo and the Illegals, are playing Pantera set on tour right now.
I was lucky enough to see them live twice, last time on the Reinventing the Steele tour in Dallas with Soulfly and Morbid Angel. Like you see in the clip, they were pure energy live. I actually met Vinnie and Dime at a after party following a Rob Zombie concert in Dallas. Two of the coolest most humble people in the world. I won't lie, I cried my eyes out when Dime died, the wold lost a lot when he was taken from us.
Pantera was one of those few bands where each guy was close to or equal in intensity and talent. Top notch vocals, guitar, drums and bass.
In the early 90’s, specially in the clubs, some bands can turn the whole experience up to 11, but Pantera turned it up to 30 ! Nothing you could fully describe. You’d definitely have to experience, and survive ! Nobody could shut down these over occupied clubs, in fear of a riot, and the oxygen levels were even low, making it hard to breathe since everyone in the club being physical, took up more oxygen, and it wasn’t replaced quick enough. Imagine at least half a dozen people stage diving at any one time. It was that “ ultimate party band “ that propelled them to rock god status.
Love Pantera infinitely. GETCHA PULL
When my brother died last year I must have played the song 80,000 times my brother was a phenomenal guitarist who loves Pantera as well as I do I hope wherever they are now they're shredding together
I agree I miss pantera badly... I grew up with these guys, along with made in the Megadeth, Metallica Judas priest , Ozzy Black Sabbath, there rock gods in my book🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻☠️☠️👍👍
This song has a very special place in their musical history and has always rocked me away
Baddest riff ever!!!🤘🏽
Saw them 7 times, might have been the only black person there, never felt out of place once
Pantera single handedly saved 90s metal. When grunge came along I needed something to hang on to. Long Live Metal \m/... it saves my life every day I shit you not.
It's just Texas swagga' mah' brotha'!! Dimebag Darrell was a one of a kind Guitarist, Groove for days, and his brother Vinnie on Drums!! They are no longer with us and the world of Metal will always remember them... R.I.P. saw them in '92.
I saw them at my first Monsters of Rock festival at Donnington U.K. back in '94 along with Therapy?, The Wildhearts, Terrorvision, Skin, Sepultura, Zakk Wylde's band Pride & Glory, Headswim, Extreme, Cry of Love, Biohazard (where there was a mass stage invasion & the plug got pulled!) & headliners Aerosmith. At one point I was crowd surfing while wearing a stars & stripes inflatable American football helmet. people were throwing all kinds of stuff, like bottles of piss, but when Pantera came on people started throwing joints onto the stage like some kind of mass offering, later I threw my Pantera T-shirt up on stage & Phil, the singer caught it, showed it off, laid it over the moniter, then later threw it back into the crowd where the moshpit turned into a pack of wolves, tearing it apart trying to claim it, or at least get a piece. Fucking amazing day!
You nailed it mate. TY for listening all the way. This way we feel the song, the way they wanted you to. Well done from Australia
Seen pantera 6 times. Met dimebag once. The most brutal show ever. Broken nose and chipped tooth. Also caught a plastic cup.dime threw. and it was the show, the walk video was filmed at. Amazing show.
Daaaammmmnnnn!!!! When I did my reaction to walk I knew that show was legit crazy.
My boys!! Aggressive Power Groove
I was lucky to meet them and see them over a dozen times. Definitely my favorite live band of all time. But my favorite concert was in 2006 November 5th at the Worcester Palladium. I got to see Celtic Frost. My bday was midnight. I ended up getting the set list autographed and the music from the show on cd. A friend got me it for my bday.
I’m in the Mouth For War Video! That was an awesome day!🤘😁
Java Wax really where?
In the 90s I saw Pantera with Megadeth and White Zombie at an outdoor venue. It was an amazing experience! I was walking back from concessions or the restroom or whatever, in the main aisle, between the pavilion seating in front of the stage and the general admission "lawn" seats. A mosh pit erupted out of nowhere and swallowed me whole! Lol my glasses got busted and everything...it was AWESOME!
Hahahaha......dope! Great story. Thanks for sharing.
You're not talking about Pine Knob/DTE are you? If so, I was also at that show. We were at the bottom of the lawn against the railing, at least until the railing was pulled out of the ground. There was a pit right in front of us in that paved area for the entire show. A skinhead about three feet in front of me punched some dude in the face so hard I could feel it through the ground! No way in hell was I jumping into that mess!
Hell yeah it was Pine Knob back then. There was no pit and then there was a pit and I was in the middle of it
And thanks TnT. That was a real event. During Megadeth the crowd tore up the lawn area. Dirt clods and grass raining down like a volcano erupted!
@@JoseValdez-tb9nf As far as I'm concerned, it's STILL Pine Knob. That was one hell of a show, but I'm not 16 anymore. Don't think I could do any pit these days, let alone a Pantera pit.
That’s really cool that you can “hear” their unique sound compared to every other band out there. Pantera plays a sub-genre of Metal called Groove Metal. Great reaction video.
Fun to watch, thanks for reacting to the video version! Fascinating!
This song was initially something Dimebag came up with to use as a loud,rude alarm to wake Vinnie up. Then it evolved into one of the most badass metal anthems of all time!
I was 23 when this album came out. Many a beer was had to these great tunes.
Brother, This is hands down by far my favorite song. The riff, the way the vocals are tracked. Just pure fuckin adrenaline for me. Plus 92 to 94 Vulgar and Driven era was the best years of my life. I miss this band so much. Its a Damn shame Phil wasted so much time with whatever he was up to and. A billion times more a waste Dime being murdered on stage.
ROCK ON DUDE......Play this song late at night in your car with the windows down and the volume high as it goes. Adds like a whole nother gear and 100hp to your car.
I saw Pantera ones in Seattle ´95. I was not in the standing crowd but seated. But they were crazy on stage and the athmosphere was really intense. Loved it. I remember people throwing some weed on stage and Phil would light up! So happy I got to see them 🤘👌
hahahahhaha.... nice!
Finally PanterA!! Fuck yeah brotha, keep blasting that shit. React to Pantera -domination live from donington🤘
I saw them back in 97. My friend got his nose broken in the pit! I was lucky and managed to not break anything lol. He had the biggest grin on his face walking up to me with blood running down his face I was like dude, your nose!!! I took him over to the rest room so he could see it and wash off. We got back and he ran back into another pit! It was a great experience!!!
Seen them twice. So brutally awesome.
Sooo lucky dude.
Got to see them 2 times back in the day. Awesome shows, they really gave it all. Also, by far the most pot being smoked than any other show I've been to,. and that's including the Greatful Dead. Shit, their back drop was a giant pot leaf live. Contact high for every one.lol. but true.
I was in a pit, at the Aragon Ball Room ( Brawl Room ), in Chicago....It was Crazy Energy, but I wished I watched the show closer....I was in the PIT , for half of it......I got a bloody nose, but really got to enjoy the show, involved with others, and the Energy, and Power of Pantera, raging us on LIVE!....( side note ) one of the dudes, that hung with me in the PIT, the whole time, was a Brother! =D
hahhahahahah... no fuckn way. Thats awesome bro. Thank you for sharing! Thats one thing I have read from some of the comments. All the guys that were in the pit, "felt" the show but did not "see" it.
That's where they filmed the video for WALK.....ARAGON
Domination live in Moscow. First time the kids heard western music and a million people shredding
Got to see them in Columbus Ga. early 90s Cowboys From Hell tour. They actually opened for skid row. The first song was Cowboys From Hell and when it kicked in the floor EXPLODED!!!!! My girlfriend got elbowed in the mouth and I think I might be the guilty party . Awesome show!!!! When skid row took the stage we just found a seat
From Argentina.... the best for you
Pantera ruled man, RIP
T, ONCE AGAIN, YOU HAVE THE BEST RUclips CHANNEL, OTHERS TRY TO IMITATE YOU, BUT THEY DO NOT COME CLOSE BROTHER, KEEP ON ROCKIN, PEACE TO THE WORLD, COUSIN FIGEL
mosh pits were a healthy and therapeutical form of violence that had an unspoken code of conduct. you hit and get hit but you knew it wasn't ever personal. pantera pits were in a league of their own though. the ferocity and severity was intimidating to say the least. in their 3rd home video 3 watch it go theres a short part where a black kid with a visibly broken nose says " broken nooose with panteraaa in chicagooo" in all smiles. it was such a great unmatched release that you had no choice but to come out happy and floating from all you left behind in the pit.
nice 'reaction' video mate....cool to see how into it you were. You obviously know your music, the era and how they put a sound like this together. Your comments are bang on mate. I was lucky enough to see Pantera down here in NZ in the early 90's..and I can tell you, as a guitar player, seeing Dimebag play live was such a treat.....unique in every way. His sound, riffs..everything..you can tell its him. As you alluded to with the band in general. I like what you do bro...subbed. Have a great xmas and holiday season. Cheers
You should do THE ART OF SPREADING...By them you will definitely enjoy it and I luv your reaction to Metal its awesome keep up the good work my friend
This song got me onto pantera and beyond
Shout out to Beavis and Btthead back in the day playing this video on their show and exposing me to Pantera!
Y'know, when I think of it they were like the original reactors :P
I said the same thing in my judaS priest painkiller reaction
Pantera is in another level no other band sound like them back in the day and even now, is a shame how they finish the thing smh... Great reaction btw please react to one song of them that just two or three people react to until this days is call it "Regular People" of the álbum Vulgar Display of Power (1992) that song is pure greatness and is so underrated... Cheers man!!
No one comes close to pantera
Sure. And yes you're 100% correct this band had a unique sound but most. Importantly they had the attitude and aggression not many metal bands had during this time.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT You got that right for sure!
The Adventures of TNT or today
I was 17 when I saw them @ Ozzfest 2000. Just, the best. Better than the album versions; their live show was off the hook. I remember a knock-down-drag-out type fight broke out in front of me; these two dudes were beating the shit out of each other. They eventually got dragged away by security all bloody and shit. After the song was over Phil did not hesitate to keep the peace saying that "This hear is about love and family and we don't need to be fightin' and shit, it don't belong here. So shut that shit down right now, you can get crazy without hurtin' one another" One of the best shows ever. Pantera forever. \,,/ \,,/
These reaction videos are so much better when the reaction is a good one lol \m/
Good lookin out on the videos bro👌keep em comming!!!
one of the best metal bands of all times...hands down, fortunate to see them a couple of times back in the day. RIP DIME & VINNIE
I love how Phil made it cool to be shaved if you were in to metal
Favorite song by Pantera as far as hearing Rex really getting after it. That bass sound is fucking FAT
Had the pleasure to see Pantera once in Sweden (we didn't get them very often over here) in 2000 when they did the Reinventing the Steel tour and it was just... Wow... So incredible. Phil was a mess because of his drug abuse. But it was it was one of the greatest shows I've been to regardless. Pit? There wasn't a pit. The entire audience was bouncing up and down and head banging. But I guess the whole venue was one giant mosh.
i love low budget videos. do one for "this love" if you havnt.
I grew up on pantera for 18 years
I had the privilege of seeing Pantera live 3 times. Twice at Wendler Arena (now The Dow Event Center) in Saginaw Michigan and once at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills Michigan (where they were the opening band for Black Sabbath). With Pantera it didn't matter if they played in front of 50 people or 50 thousand, you knew you were at a Pantera show!! I actually cried when I heard that Dimebag was murdered. Here is a link to a live performance of In This River by the band Black Label Society. The singer/lead guitar player of BLS uses the song as a tribute to his good friend Dimebag (he wrote the song before Dimebags death). I think you will really like it: ruclips.net/video/6eK3sd7XcX0/видео.html
Hard to perform when half the band is no longer with us. R.I.P Dime and Vin.
Pantera is one of the best bands out there! Great reaction vid! React to Megadeth Holy Wars... The Punishment Due Original Version.
Their pit was insane. I remember seeing them on ozzfest 2000. I was standing on the lawn by the barricades. When they hit the stage people in the grass tore the barricades down and rushed the the seating area to get to the pit. If you have ever scene the trailer for world war z. The rush of zombies running at you. That's what it looked like. They played a great set. Godsmack had to follow that. And fans it the grass were throwing chunks of grass into the pavilion. They threatened to walk off stage. if they didnt stop throwing the grass. They played as well. Good night over all
Hahahaha......nice . That had to be a wild experience. Thanks for sharing bro!
Godsmack played before Pantera on Ozzfest 2000.
@@integrity101 your right I got that backwards.
@@timish71
Great story tho.🖒 I saw that tour. At my show Everyone was sitting down until Godsmack played and it started to feel like a concert. Then Pantera opened with Yesterday Dont Mean shit and the place went crazy. Ozzy was cool too, but Pantera was by far the best live act
@@integrity101 loved ozzy's intro dressed as britney spears in that video.
There's no actual official film clip for this one that I know of,but I want to see your reaction to "Strength Beyond Strength ",the first track off "Far Beyond Driven "(same album that "I'm Broken " is from). IT IS THE BEST WAY TO START AN ALBUM EVER
r.i.p. Abbott brothers. check out 5 minutes alone
Yeah, another brutally heavy song of the same CD.
Saw them with the original Black Sabbath members in San Antonio in 2001, wish the Brothers were still here with us , so many great musicians came out of Texas but these two were special
Yeah, back then, we had Head bangers ball on MTV, the only good thing ever to come out of MTV 😂
Hahahaha.... I was thinking about headbangers earlier today. I want to do a show similar to it.
Lol early 90s feel. It was the 90s.. great reaction. Check out 5 minutes alone when you get a chance.
Update:
It was just announced Pantera front man Philip Anselmo will be supporting SLAYER on their farwell tour with a *FULL SET OF PANTERA* songs.
This is everyones opportunity to hear Pantera songs performed live by the singer for the first time in *EIGHTEEN YEARS*
i haven't missed a tour by Anselmo in two decades. Ive heard Phil play 3 total Pantera songs in that time. *THIS IS RARE.* Go, have fun!!!
Seriously??? Now I'm definitely getting tickets!
@@TheAdventuresofTNT
I am serious. The tour is in November. Tickets go on sale *Friday.* Philip H Anselmo & The Illegals is his band. They will be opening the concert. So if u go, do *NOT* arrive late.
I was fortunate to see Pantera live a few times. This certainly will *NOT* be the same. It *will* be a great tribute to the band and all their achievements.
Slayer opened for Phil & Pantera on their final tour in 2001. Now, 18 years later Philip Anselmo will open for Slayer on their final tour.
I highly recommend anyone even remotely interested in Pantera or Slayer music go to this tour. Especially if u didnt see Pantera.
ruclips.net/video/OKWPi0I5If0/видео.html
Not the same, I’ve checked out some of their performances, Phil isn’t what he used to be, and the Illegals musical chops are nowhere near anything remotely close to Pantera. See the Slayer show for them as one of their final performances ever!!!!!!
@@KidPedu71
Phil sounds awesome in 2019. You guys never quit with his voice. Christ people been saying he lost his voice since 1991 😂
Some nights his voice is fried some nights its killer.
I saw them almost every weekend here in shreveport-bossier. Before they got big and I never seen them again. Being a drummer I was always talkin to Vinny Paul.
GOD! I love Metal! 🔥😛
I remember when Carl's Jr. put out a commercial with this song playing in the background. I immediately went out and got me Carl's Jr!!!!! Someone is a marketing genius ;-)
Far Beyond Driven really brings the high velocity.
I never got see Pantera in concert!
Phil wears crowbar shirt in this video, so react to CROWBAR!!
that's a slippery slope! He is also wearing an EyeHateGod shirt. Don't know if my mans ready for that shit.
@@jayray6488 eyehategod's a whole other level from Crowbar though, as far as shock value to new listeners.
Crowbar's super Sludgy, but the grooves are tasty as fuck & actually really palatable for those unaccustomed to skull-fuckingly heavy music. Imo they're the ultimate starter band for Sludge.
eyehategod is..well, eyehategod. :p Still a great listen, but WAY more abrasive, & 5x as likely to turn off virgin ears.
It's like the difference between Metallica & Slayer.
Hell yeah nothbands are in down with Phil Kirk and Jimmy pantera miss you guys
Phil produced CROWBARS ALBUMS.
I partied with them in 1992 on the Vulgar Display of Power Tour. I have backstage passes in Portland Oregon at the Roseland Theater. Smoke a lot of joints and had a lot of laughs. If you don't like the show
Totally awesome. Thanks for sharing your story. They seem like a bunch of chill guys you can grab a beer with.
The greatest of all time. Thanks for sharing. Respect from Baltimore.
Energy is universal!
best song on a workout playlist
I saw Pantera in gritty ole New Mexico and it was Fuckin awesome
I got to see them here in Cleveland back in either 91' or 92' memoey is a little hazy anyway in a little known establisment called Flashe's 😆 Ah the good old days
Panteraaaaaaaaaaa eternal in my heart 👊👊
You should really watch the pantera home videos. It wont disappoint man🤟🏾
That whole album was a beast!
Pantera set the sound on MTV .....
I had the pleasure of seeing them with the Deftones and White Zombie in 95. Best show ever. R.I.P. Vinnie and Dime Bag. Great reaction. You should check out Hostile from Pantera.
Stick with Far Beyond and go with Strength Beyond Strength or Slaughtered
They invented "groove" metal!!!
