PANTERA’s studio albums will make their picture-disc debuts in a new five-LP boxed set that spotlights the band’s everlasting mark on the metal scene
“The Complete Studio Albums 1990-2000” (picture discs) will be available exclusively online at Rhino.com, Pantera.com, and indie retailers on July 21, limited to 3,500 copies worldwide ($149.98). Each picture disc features the cover image from the original album. The career-spanning set also comes with a poster featuring all four members.
The hard-hitting collection unleashes a decade’s worth of PANTERA‘s inimitable sound and fury from Philip Anselmo, “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott, Rex Brown and Vinnie Paul Abbott. It includes the double-platinum albums “Cowboys From Hell” (1990) and “Vulgar Display Of Power” (1992),platinum albums “Far Beyond Driven” (1994) and “The Great Southern Trendkill” (1996) and the gold-certified record “Reinventing The Steel” (2000).
“Cowboys From Hell” debuted in 1990 and is the album that made PANTERA heroes to headbangers everywhere. After peaking at No. 27 on the Billboard 200, the album went on to become one of the most influential metal albums of all time and was recently certified double platinum.
“Vulgar Display Of Power” arrived in 1992 and refined the band’s heavier-than-heavy aesthetic with songs like “Mouth For War” while simultaneously showcasing the group’s musical range on the haunting ballad “Hollow”. The album was certified double platinum and spent 79 weeks on the Billboard 200, longer than any other PANTERA album.
The band’s success continued in 1994 with “Far Beyond Driven”, the most extreme album to ever debut at No. 1 on the Billboard charts. Several tracks became fan favorites, including “5 Minutes Alone” and a cover of BLACK SABBATH‘s “Planet Caravan”. The single “I’m Broken” was nominated for the Grammy Award for “Best Metal Performance” — the first of four Grammy nominations the band would earn.
The new version of PANTERA, which features “original” members Phil Anselmo (vocals) and Rex Brown (bass) being joined by guitarist Zakk Wylde (BLACK LABEL SOCIETY) and drummer Charlie Benante (ANTHRAX), played their first U.S. concert in over 20 years on May 6 at the Thunder Beach Motorcycle Rally in Panama City, Florida.
The last time PANTERA played a concert on U.S. soil was when they performed at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington as part of the “Extreme Steel” tour on July 25, 2001.
PANTERA are set to hit the road throughout North America this summer along with fellow groove-metallers LAMB OF GOD as their special guests.
One of the most anticipated tours of 2023, this celebration tour includes surviving members Philip Anselmo (vocals) and Rex Brown (bass) joined by guitarist Zakk Wylde (OZZY OSBOURNE, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY) and drummer Charlie Benante (ANTHRAX).
Produced by Live Nation, the 20-city tour kicks off on Tuesday, July 28 in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania at The Pavilion at Star Lake making stops in Milwaukee, Toronto, Austin, Denver, and more before wrapping up in Bristow, Virginia on September 15 at Jiffy Lube Live.
