It was my first thought, bit of a canned, tinny sound, but cranking up the volume made it sound better (some music is like that, it’s interesting).

One of the better examples of a genre that’s not my favourite.

I remember buying this on cassette at a Circuit City because my car only played tapes.

It’s mostly not crap, though side 1 is stronger than side 2. “Becoming” is on my jogging playlist.

These guys approve, of course:

"Whatever happened to that album?"
"I broke it, remember? I threw it against the wall and it like, shattered."

The rhythm guitar often sounds like an electric can opener. I wonder if Terry Date mic'd one up.

We're headed for social anarchy when people start pissing on bookstores.

I fucked my YT algorithm searching for old Phil interviews where he had the labradoodle hair because I am curious if his voice sounded back then they way it currently sounds. That would be funny. And, hey, knowing my predilection in the 80s for bourgeois sleaze rock I have no room to be hypercritical. It'd still be funny tho.

I don't know the record, I only know "Walk." *cues FBD* Oh, I thought this was like their first record *cues first record* It's called...let me see here...Metal Magic

I always found it funny that such an accomplished band had the guitar tone of a Crate practice amp.

Check out the Power Metal record. They were in full Priest ripoff mode. My friend swears Projects in the Jungle is great, but I've never bothered.

I have seen Pantera twice in my life, both times for free as a friend bailed and I'd pretty much go see any live music.

I think it was 95 or so, and I had never seen such a dumb crowd who wanted to fucking mosh so bad. Kids were moshing in the parking lot, they were moshing in line waiting to get in, and I swear to god they were moshing in the bathroom as I was waiting to piss. That is my memory of going to see Pantera.

I think this would make a pretty good Pantera video.

To get out into the weeds a bit...

The solo section of "Hard Lines Sunken Cheeks"?

It is one of the instances of "A Guitar Solo Should Be A Small Song Of It's Own..." Total keeper. Also starts in about the last place you would expect for it to.

"Throes Of Rejection"?

It is a favorite as far as "I'm About To Shred..." solos go. Even though it is a bit heavy on the "Last Half Of Fair Warning..." bit.

Hadn't listened to it since then. Production is a bit dated IMHo.

NC but to be honest I enjoyed Cowboys from hell more.

Anyway, I just don't care for that band since my teens.

If this was an intentional joke?

I applaud your effort.
