NEW "DIMEBAG DARRELL: Riffer Madness" Instructional DVD Is Available Now!

The "DIMEBAG DARRELL: Riffer Madness" DVD has been unleashed! Here is the description from Alfred Music Publishing, the publication to blame for this awesome release!

"This long-awaited DVD tribute to the godfather of modern Metal is finally here. Based on Dime's best-selling instructional book, 'Riffer Madness', this DVD is hosted by Dime's co-writer, good friend, and protege, Metal maestro Nick Bowcott. It features long lost one-on-one special footage of Dime teaching some of his most classic licks. Nick Bowcott helps pass Dime's torch to the next generation. He takes 97 of Dime's critical riffs and patterns and uses them as a jumping-off point to help young guitarists play their favorite guitar parts and, more importantly, understand the creativity, attitude, feeling, and intention underlying each pattern. Nick also covers killer rhythm guitar, power grooves and pick squeals, psychotic syncopation, holes of silence, chromatics, diabolical dyads, and much more! The DVD includes printable PDF TAB, an exclusive interview with Dime's wife, Rita Haney, and two long lost lessons filmed by Dime."

Riki Rachtman: Connection of DIMEBAG's Murder & Randy Blythe's Murder Charges + Feud With Mustaine!

David Alan "Riki" Rachtman can be blamed for helping to revitalize the Heavy Music scene in the 90s. Every Saturday night in the early 1990's, there was a wonderful show called Headbangers Ball, hosted by Rachtman, that highlighted the heaviest, most intense and popular Heavy Music bands in the music scene.

Not only did Rachtman host MTV's Headbangers Ball during its prime era, but he has also been an ambassador to Hard Rock and Heavy Metal ever since. At present time,  Rachtman hosts a NASCAR-themed radio show called Racing Rocks (heard on over 120 stations across America) and Nascar 24/7 Live. While Rachtman is not actively working in the Heavy Music scene today, he is still a huge fan of our music.

Recently, Rachtman called out Mustaine for treating him differently depending on the situation. When Mustaine and Rachtman would hang out, Mustaine acted like a friend. But when Mustaine was alone, he would talk smack about Rachtman in public (read more HERE).

Since we all love to hear about Mustaine's controversial ways, we decided to get Rachtman on the phone and let him explain exactly what happened. During a very honest interview, all of a sudden we started discussing the untimely death of "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott (whose 8th death anniversary is today) and the connection of such a horrible incident with the current legal battle that LAMB OF GOD's Randy Blythe is currently facing.

Without further due, here is our exclusive interview with Riki Rachtman.

5 reasons why YOU should come to our Dimebag Darrell/Hurricane Sandy benefit show!

1) Saturday, December 8th, marks the 8th anniversary of the day that we all lost our guitar hero: Dimebag Darrell Abbott. What would Dimebag do if he was still around? Play music super loud and party all night long. Don't let him down and come put back some $5 Blacktooth Grins (Dime's favorite drink)!

2) The victims of Hurricane Sandy need all of our help, which is why we will be raising funds all night long! Part of the proceeds will be donated to two of the bands performing on Saturday night: ALEKHINE'S GUN and DIMEBAG NYC, who lost all their gear to the hurricane.

3) We have Marc Rizzo from SOULFLY and CAVALERA CONSPIRACY performing at the event for the second year in a row with the Marc Rizzo Band. Dime is Rizzo's favorite guitar player ever, so he is stoked about performing in the name of his guitar hero.

4) DRIVEN MAD's debut show in Brooklyn, NY! And we can't forget that it will be the last show this year in which you will get to see IKILLYA and THINNING THE HERD!

5) It will also be the first and only Horns Up Rocks show in Brooklyn, NY in 2012. This marks our return to The Trash Bar after a whole year! Last show we did there was the first "Holiday Tribute Show For Dimebag Darrell" in December of 2011. Get there early to enjoy the open bar (7 - 8 PM).

PANTERA: Full Concert Footage Of Last Show Ever In Korea!

12 years ago, after Pantera released their last major label album 'Reinventing The Steel' (March 13, 2000), everyone was caught by surprise due to the musicality displayed by the Pantera boys. Perhaps not their heaviest album (even though it is heavy as hell), on 'Reinventing The Steel' Pantera took their music into yet another level and many say that this album gave birth to the NuMetal movement.

As we all know, Pantera started as a glam band and it was 'Cowboys From Hell' (released on July 3, 1990) they clearly left shaped up their signature sound. But if there is one factor that was kept intact by the band, was that their live shows only got better and better. Here is full concert footage of Pantera's last gig ever in Korea during the "Extreme Steel Tour". Crank it up and watch it go!

PANTERA's 'Cowboys From Hell': 22 YEARS STRONG!

22 years ago, when Pantera released their legendary major label debut album 'Cowboys From Hell', everyone was caught by surprise to the fury displayed by the Pantera boys. As we all know, Pantera started as a glam band and with 'Cowboys From Hell' (released on July 3, 1990) they clearly left that part of their career behind, and single-handedly reinvented the steel! 22 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 front 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 Abbott (RIP), Vinnie Paul and Rex Brown created, is to this day untouched, unmatched, unscarred by trials! CFH is defined as 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!
