Pantera came together in the 80's created by brothers drummer Vinnie Paul and Guitarist Dimebag Darrell the band went threw some line up changes they lost their lead singer and replaced him with the other guitarist and they released an album in 1983, it was not that great it the follow up album was better but still not that great. Then in 1987 is were they once again replaced the lead singer, the first cd that was let out with this singer was insanely better then the two previews ones and much heavier. To me this is were the band finally found their best sound and starting making great music because the following album titled 'Cowboys From Hell' is my personal favourite because it has great heavy songs and some good solo's. A couple of the best tracks on this Cd were 'Cowboys From Hell' and 'Art Of Shredding'. Over the next ten years this band kept making some of the greatest music ever. It was different then most metal music it wasn't heavy but wasn't to soft it was a mix of some country and metal music and it sounded amazing. Then the band parted ways, due to members not being able to work together and in 2003 former lead guitarist Dimebag Derrell was shot at a live concert because of things lead singer said to the press. It sucked that Dimebag died because he was my favourite guitarist ever. He made amazing solo's and did some decent back up vocals. I really wished this band never broke up but the best bands never last unfortunately.
