Yeah, Rex and Jerry Cantrell are long time friends. Rex also plays bass on some songs from Cantrell's debut solo album Boggy Depot (released in 1998). I can hear the influences.
Fact: Rex Brown played bass on some songs included on Jerry Cantrell's first solo album Boggy Depot (released in 1998). I can hear some AIC (well...Cantrell's) influence on Brown's work here.
Make absolutely no mistake about it and with God as witness, the world is missing Pantera really effin bad. The world is a much better place with Rex and Phil continuing to make music.
+Bill He's known as the bass player in Pantera. Yes they are good musicians and known for writing good songs but face it Rex is no Les Claypool or Billy Sheehan.
Exactly, it has a radio rock feel, it's vintage, not 70s type of vintage, but by 2018 we can safely say that 90s era is a different kind of vintage. This is a song that I would rock in my car when night travelling!
Well damn. I've always heard Rex was a good guitarist but I really wasn't expecting him to be this good of a singer. I can't believe I haven't heard this sooner...
Rex claims in his book he played all the string recordings on the Down II album. He said he woke up earlier than the others who were passed out, and by the time they woke up he'd have most of it done. Not sure if its true, but it is what Rex claimed anyways.
@@jeremyjames1659 really? I'm gonna have to look into that lol. I've heard him say he wrote most of that album but I've never heard that he played the guitar parts as well...
Didn't know Pantera was goin' for "Classy"...🤔 🤣😏 DOWN is the heaviest band w/Pantera members since Pantera. ARMS OF THE SUN is Rex's other project I first heard (& they're badass!). This sounds like Jerry Cantrell & Chris Cornell wrote it...Gene Simmons sang it, and Slash on guitar. Meant that in a strange but good way.
No no God bless does everything the people that were in Pantera turn to gold. This is great song writing and parts placement just undeniable. Rex Brown Pure Gold
Just finished Rex's book yesterday,and after watching this i managed to spot MANY references to his personal struggle detailed within the pages of the book. - I'm super stoked that he is musically keeping busy. - The video and song are well executed and i imagine they captured what he was trying to convey perfectly. - I don't like the style of music at all,.. but sometimes it isn't about us,.. its about supporting the artists we love. Good luck to you Rex, and your kids. ♥
How so Mike? I didn't pick up on any overt 'rattish' tendencies. Perhaps a constant unnecessary element of bravado, but considering his life i let it slide.
The one and only Rex Brown💛 love you bro. 27 year old fan from south west arizona. I hope you make one more album at least. Gotta meet you one day, very soon hopefully. Zakk, Phil and Benante too
This album is turning out to be great. Well done Rex. You have really made this your own and not just carried on with something similar to your older bands. This could be one of my top albums of the year. I can hear your passion and its great
Pantera is my all time favorite band and I love all their projects after like damageplan, super joint, he'll yeah, kill devil hill,rex solo career and last but not least down
As much as what has happened sucks, if there is any good from it, it is that it truly illustrates the mindblowing level of talent that was Pantera. Love your stuff, Rex. Glad to see you still kicking ass! If you have any tour stops south of Orlando, I will beg, borrow and steal to get there. Even if I have to WALK!
I agree with a previous comment that Rex Browns' work since Pantera is arguably the best music of previous members. Saying that, I'm getting older and enjoy this type of rock more so than the incoherent angry shouty noise that Phil Anselmo has created. Hell Yeah and Vinnie have made generic adequate but not pulsating music. Just my opinion. As someone who was impressed and impacted significantly by Pantera (FBD was my first exposure) I immediately fell in love with I'm Broken single and evolved in seconds from old rock and hard rock to something that I fear may not be replicated. What an impact. Much respect to them as a collective and to Rex for creating tunes that I can medicate to 🤘
In places I can hear various influences as opposed to lazy copying. I'm a 90's rocker and this reminds me of Corrosion of Conformity for the groove riff and Alice in Chains for the mellow parts... as well as having a cool sound overall thanks to Rex being extremely talented and I think somewhat underrated due to the past company he kept. Cool sound and long live real music created and performed by the real musicians of the world 🤘
I was already impressed with Train Song, but this is just incredible. Couldn't be happier for Rex. Really looking forward to more from this album!
defo agree great song..i love my metal..but i love a nice bit of rok n rol this is a great song..
Right. For me, this track i can enjoy on repeat every day.
Rex In Chains...fucking great!
Ian Taylor kind of like how Kill Devil Hill was in the vain of Alice In Chains.
Yeah, Rex and Jerry Cantrell are long time friends. Rex also plays bass on some songs from Cantrell's debut solo album Boggy Depot (released in 1998). I can hear the influences.
haha i thought the same thing :P
Exactly.. i was thinking Alice in Chains too !
It's similar to new chains which is unfortunately crap
The legendary Johnny Kelly (Type O Negative) on drums!!
Alice In Chains meets Pride & Glory. A great combo. I'm definitely buying this album!!
KicK IT!!! Was definitely thinking it sounds a bit like Zakk Wylde vocally.
Good call. I also hear some Cornell
Fact: Rex Brown played bass on some songs included on Jerry Cantrell's
first solo album Boggy Depot (released in 1998). I can hear some AIC
(well...Cantrell's) influence on Brown's work here.
This is greatness.... I have chills all over!, Rex you are on fire, brother!
Make absolutely no mistake about it and with God as witness, the world is missing Pantera really effin bad. The world is a much better place with Rex and Phil continuing to make music.
Good on ya Rex! I will glady support anything you make. Underrated bass player! Great musician! Good luck Rex!
Um, how is he an underated bass player? He's world famous for being in Pantera, of which all four members are widely recognised for their talent.
+Bill He's known as the bass player in Pantera. Yes they are good musicians and known for writing good songs but face it Rex is no Les Claypool or Billy Sheehan.
When people talk about good or great bass players, i never hear him brought up. He's slept on a lot.
I dont like to compare but Rex might be the best metal bassist
This album has a very 1990's radio rock sound and feel to it.
Exactly, it has a radio rock feel, it's vintage, not 70s type of vintage, but by 2018 we can safely say that 90s era is a different kind of vintage. This is a song that I would rock in my car when night travelling!
Love it
what the
Beautiful track
Rex Brown. The Heavy Metal Willie Nelson

@@jeremyjames1659i believe that. Rex contributed so much in Pantera as well, and maybe not everyone is aware of it
This is the classiest thing to come from Pantera since they disbanded.
Ain't pantera. It's Rex. Folks should learn to differentiate.
@@sicmic123 And he was in pantera
Sounds like the opposite to what phil anselmo is doing.
@Becoming Godsize It's well produced. Sounds excellent, I guess not your taste?
Didn't know Pantera was goin' for "Classy"...🤔
🤣😏
DOWN is the heaviest band w/Pantera members since Pantera.
ARMS OF THE SUN is Rex's other project I first heard (& they're badass!).
This sounds like Jerry Cantrell & Chris Cornell wrote it...Gene Simmons sang it, and Slash on guitar. Meant that in a strange but good way.
Rex has been unleashed and the world deserves it
Amazing, Pantera still lives in your music
No no God bless does everything the people that were in Pantera turn to gold. This is great song writing and parts placement just undeniable. Rex Brown Pure Gold
I use to play this album after getting out of my over night job at six in the morning. Possibly the best part of working the graveyard shift.
I usually turn the sound off at the end of a joint, fresh day sunlight and it's bedtime
Rex, You do good man. I love you !!!!! So happy our music is going on !!!
The album is superb, cant stop listing to it.Thanks Rex
I am really enjoying these songs!
Glad I discovered this channel
Yet again. Rex surprised us once more!

♥
Yeah I cant get into this music either...
I read that book, too. It's really good
Yeah me too I'd heard he was a rat the book proved it
How so Mike?

The one and only Rex Brown💛 love you bro. 27 year old fan from south west arizona. I hope you make one more album at least. Gotta meet you one day, very soon hopefully. Zakk, Phil and Benante too
man this so fucking awesome
it's about time that rex brown is a leader, I see him better future with his personal project than with down
Definitely he should do song with Jerry Cantrell, this sound and vocals would fits with Jerry style
Rex played bass on a few tracks on Jerry Cantrell's 1st solo album.
Great Performance......Excelent Song..... REX BROWN RULESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Rex Brown doing soft rock!! Dont get me wrong its a nice bit of easy listening i guess he is in his 50's now. Different to what i was expecting
Absolutely beautiful, Rex.
reminds me of a metal Allman Brothers. Southern Metal, like Down, with more groove and soul. Good vocals, too. Just ordered the cd.
Wow!!!! Rex has a hell of a singing voice!!!!!!
HELL YEAH...
PsychoAxeMan talk about irony. lol
Pitchfork Matt I know right hahahaha
Vinnie stole the name for hellyeah from Rex's boat, The Hell Yeah
Hey man. Can't wait to get that new album. Gots some balls for sure. Diggin'.. Getcha pull..
The not-so-subtle Dime tribute at 3:41
Travis Anderson lol you have good eyes
can you enlighten me please? i can't see anything related to dime there. If anything the face looks like Phil on that coin, to me.
SilverBane it's one "dime" coin
Cuz it was an actual dime
ah, makes sense, poor me. thanks for info!
cool to see Rex still making tunes
AWESOME. REX is AWESOME.
Rex is king!!!!!
Love you Rex Brown
This album is turning out to be great. Well done Rex. You have really made this your own and not just carried on with something similar to your older bands. This could be one of my top albums of the year. I can hear your passion and its great
Glad to see rex still producing music
So good .
Awesome tune. Wish you luck Rex.
Wow! Rex's new music is incredible! This dude can sing! Im definitely a fan
Type o negative drummer. He nailt it as usual. Great song
Rex has some vocal skills!
Great sound & performing! Rex is back to his roots! Classic rock forever! There is something Zeppelinish in his music. Like it so much!👍👍👍
This is good music.
Thank you Rex
Gotta Love Rex
Yep..i like it..and it has the chains feel
Danny Marr kind of, right ?
Dude is fusing pantera, southern blues and a bit of Alice in chains and grunge into it really great stuff
I'm impressed!!! His solo stuff is real good.
Way more than i was expecting! well done!
Pantera is my all time favorite band and I love all their projects after like damageplan, super joint, he'll yeah, kill devil hill,rex solo career and last but not least down
Love the new stuff man! HELL YEAH REX!
I really love rex browns fashion statement,his music kept the southern blues taste,kinda remind me the origins of the blues state of America
Incrível teu trabalho, Rex! Estarei aqui te acompanhando como deve ser.... SUCESSO! bEIJOS
RIP Dimebag
And his brother Vinnie Paul
Waiting for the tours to start, be blessed be life enjoy life 😊🤘🤙
Hell yeah Rex! Get it!
WOW! This is SOOOOO GOOOOOD!
I loved your bass playing with Pantera and Down.Butt it's good you keep goin' on.Love this music.Stay alive.
I think he's made the best music of the Pantera members.
Hard to believe there's only 2 left.
Fuckin hell. Life...
not too shabby
Badass! Great song!!!!
Great!
Pretty cool, a mix of musical influences with a nice, clean vocal....surprised!
Hell Yeah!!!
Que gusto tenerte entre nosotros Rex sigue adelante viejo buena tu banda suena un Carajos ⚡👍🎸⚡

The solo kinda felt like a little bit of skynrd
This is surprisingly refreshing!
finally...something good
Domebag... Forever in our hearts. Fuckin legend.
Da Fuck is Domebag
Albert Jones When you try hard to be dramatic but autocorrect hits you even harder...
Much love Rex
Much respect
Sincerly ✌🙏🤘❤
That intro is like suicide note pt.1 :')
Alonso Alarcón Also sounds a lot like 10 Years Gone by Led Zeppelin
Alonso Alarcón Maybe Rex came up with the intro to Suicide Note Pt 1
As far as I'm concerned Dime came up with it the first time he played a 12-string.
BergmanMusic I didn't know that but now I do.
BergmanMusic That's what I've read as well.
I'm really happy Rex is doing solo stuff. Long overdue tho!
love this song. great album, i think "what comes around" is my favorite.
I always want to hear a Dimebag solo.
Nobody else comes anywhere near.
Nobody. Not even close.
Rex seems like a really cool dude.
Wow! This is suddenly pretty cool!
This is why Pantera was a some because Rex Dime Vinnie and Phil were born with music genius and this song is incredible a some job Rex love it.
Well done Rex. This is the Hard Rock I like.
Very underrated
Man this is AWESOME I want that guitar pick 🤘🏼 congrats hope you tour soon here in St Louis
Dude thank you so F'ing much for this! I love U guys
for a reason Rex Brown reminds me that old man from ghost rider the very first ghost rider
anyways Rex you are a fucking legend man
I think he.nailed his debut solo lp
U go Rex!!
It has that pantera feel. Pretty good shit.
I'd love to hear this live honestly. Hope to see him in Kentucky one day. I'll be checking it out if he does. Rock on.
That build up intro is perfect
Love it!
okay I dig this one.
Yeeeees!
