Pantera - Far Beyond Driven WITH TAB GUITAR

Pantera's
emergence as a major force in the world of heavy metal in the early
90's a very much right `in your face' affair. The band was able to
breakthrough into popularity with an amazingly powerful and brutal
style which got people listening without fail. Pantera's distinctive
groove metal style that incorporated the heavy thrash metal of the
`80's with elements of hardcore and some punk was defined to perfection
on the band's second album `Vulgar Display Of Power'. The
uncompromising and technically brilliant riffing of Dimebag Darrell,
the screams of Phil Anselmo and the brutal rhythm section of drummer
Vinnie Paul and bassist Rex were winning over more and more metalheads
day by day.

`Far Beyond Driven' continues Pantera's brutal metal
style excellently. Although not their strongest work, this is still a
great album with plenty of stellar songs you will want to play back
again and again. After keeping the aggression at full pelt with this
album, the band would then go on to experiment a little and get even
heavier! with their follow up `The Great Southern Trendkill', an
underrated Pantera album. That aside, going back to this album, `Far
Beyond Driven' is further essential listening from Pantera.

The
whole band sounds excellent on here. Phil stays mainly to a low, heavy
growl, but at a few points demonstrates his unique singing voice. He
does some death metal screams which are also awesome. Dimebag is of
course in grade-A form here and has some very complex riffs and
trademark solos. Vinnie is in top notch form on the drums and his
double bass is heard throughout and he even brings the ole' cowbell out
for some parts. Rex "Rocker" Brown also does a superb job, and although
Good Friends and a Bottle of Pills is the worst song, it does have a
real cool bass line throughout and he puts down some sweet riffs during
Dimebag's solos. Also, the cover that you see on the cd is not the
original. They had a different one, but it was to explicit for the
record company's likings so they changed it to this.

Regardless
of what they'd done or where they'd go, "Far Beyond Driven" is simply
one the best HEAVY records of the 90's, if not all time in the heavily
loaded metal canon. It's thrash, it's death, it's their influences in
hardcore, in the old-school, it's so southern it hurts. Most notable is
the fact that there isn't ONE BAND out there today that sounds like
Pantera, and those that try (hello, Lamb Of God), receive either
critical acclaim or pure hatred from the underground. In the 90's, and
even today, it's hard to find someone who doesn't enjoy or at the very
least respect Pantera. This is their "big break".

This is a must
have, classic 90s album. This is their heaviest album and is also
complex. It will definitely keep you occupied listening for all the
time changes and different riffs. So if you want something heavy and
different and you love thrash metal, go for Far Beyond Driven.
