It gives Horns Up Rocks GREAT honor to dedicate our 100th post to the Kings of Heavy Metal: PANTERA!
When Pantera released their legendary album Cowboys From Hell on July 3, 1990. Everyone was caught by surprise to the fury the Pantera boys displayed. As we all know, Pantera started as a glam band and with Cowboys From Hell they left that part of their career behind, and single-handedly reinvented the steel! 20 years later, it is very hard to imagine the Heavy Metal scene being what it is today, without Pantera's Cowboys From Hell.
Cowboys From Hell contains Heavy Metal classics such as their anthem "Cowboys From Hell", "Domination", "Primal Concrete Sledge" and "Cemetery Gates". This album also gave Pantera the exposure they needed, and took them from playing small clubs to playing the "Monsters of Rock" festival in Russia in from of 1 million people. That night they outplayed Metallica, AC/DC and Aerosmith. It was evident that Pantera were ready for World Domination!
The legacy that Phil Anselmo, Dimebag Darrell (RIP), Vinnie Paul and Rex Brown created, is to this day untouched, unmatched, unscarred by trials! A New Level of confidence and power, that has influenced millions of musicians worldwide! We salute Pantera for their amazing album "Cowboys From Hell" and lets all have a couple of black tooth's this weekend, in memory of our brother in Metal Dimebag Darrell!
I want to dedicate this video segment to the Pantera boys (Phil Anselmo, Dimebag Darrell, Rex Brown & Vinnie Paul)! And to all the Horns Up Rocks familia! ENJOY
Our good friends from Sirius XM Liquid Metal will be conmemorating this amazing album all weekend long, so make sure you tune in! Happy 4th of July, please be safe because we need everyone of you alive and well, so we can keep this movement growing! \m/
