About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Thankfully, Pantera has stopped attempting to outdo each successive album in terms of start-to-finish intensity, but that doesn't mean they don't try in spots. The Great Southern Trendkill is burdened with passages in which Phil Anselmo's vocals cross the line into histrionics, making the band's trademark intensity sound dull, forced, and theatrical rather than sincere. The lyrics, which reached their apex with Vulgar Display of Power's focus on personal politics and integrity, have degenerated into half-baked rants against drugs and pop-culture media. But Trendkill is partially redeemed by trading Pantera's usual pound-then-pound-harder approach to albums for a greater variety of tempos and moods. Dimebag Darrell, while mostly sticking to his familiar riffing style, does coax some intriguing, unexpected sounds from his instrument. Ultimately, though, the ballads and slower tracks ("10's," "Suicide Note, Pt. 1," and "Floods") provide the album's most chilling, memorable moments, and rank with their best material. Longtime Pantera fans will find plenty to enjoy here, and the band's expanding range bodes well, but overall, Trendkill is an inconsistent outing. Steve Huey, All Music Guide

October 01, 2007: I've always liked Pantera more than Metallica becuase Metallica INVENTED thrash and they were indeed awesome but then they started "experimenting" and cut their hair. Whereas Pantera stayed metal all the way! Every album was heavier than the previous Pantera album. The great southern trendkill definitely keeps Pantera's oath. But let me warn you that it doesn't sound anything like Cowboys, Vulgar, and yes even Far Beyond. Dime's riffing, Rex's slaps, Vinnie's pounding, and Phil's voice all seemed to evolve heavier and more brutal than ever before, they still kept their power groove name they just put it on steroids this album, seriously, that's how heavy it is! I love it man! Pantera changed like Metallica did, but they changed for the better, this album came around when nu-metal came in fresh, but Pantera thought it still be better to just get heavier and they kept the title and people still dug it, I know I still do, Phil's voice still rambles in my head after the CD is finished... The underground in America, and Sandblasted skin, and Suicide Note Pt.2 are the songs I can't get enough of, and the melodic floods, 10s and Suicide Note Pt. 1 make you think, Dime's guitaring is brutal but at the same time you can tell it's still Dimebag playing (RIP brother)he hasn't completely changed or got slower and he still shreds your face off and didn't give up soloing like Kirk Hammett. BUY IT!!!! BUY IT!!!! BUY IT!!! Definitely buy it if you have the previous Pantera albums becuase if it's your first and then you buy the previous albums you'll be really confused!!!
