I’ll never forget the day when it was announced that Dimebag was shot and killed at a concert 13 years ago. Has it really been 13 years? Still feels like yesterday for some weird reason. I love Dimebag and I love me some Pantera too. I was bummed when he left us and still am. Dimebag was a talented metal guitarist.
RIP Dimebag Darrell who was the guitarist of metal bands, Pantera and DamagePlan passed suddenly 12 years ago today. I’ve always been a DImebag fan long before he passed. Here’s my favorite Pantera song.
10 years ago today, we lost one of the greatest metal guitarists of all time, Dimebag Darrell. Dimebag was shot three times while performing onstage with his band, Damageplan.
I love Pantera myself. I only have a few of their albums in my CD collection but I should get more of their music. Dime was a genius guitar player and he was a sad loss in the music industry.
In honor of Dimebag’s 7th year Anniversary death, I thought it would be cool to name 5 of my favorite Pantera songs of all time. I’ve always loved this band and Dime has been one of my favorite guitarists for years.
Here are my favorite Pantera tunes:
Cemetery Gates – It’s a beautiful song. Everything about the song is perfect. The guitar playing, and Phil’s voice is very heartfelt in this tune. Love this song too much.
Cowboys From Hell – Another one of my favorite Pantera tracks. Powerful guitar riffs, vocals are great. Just a perfect metal song. These guys certainly knew how to sound true metal.
Walk – It’s just a tight as hell tune. One of their best radio singles of theirs.
Revolution Is My Name – Another one of their best radio singles, this song makes you want to get angry and break stuff.
Planet Caravan – I’ve always loved their cover of this Sabbath tune. It’s a really good rendition and a hard song to cover. Only Pantera could do it, and they made it their own song.
