Album Notes
Pantera: Philip Anselmo (vocals); Dimebag Darrell (guitar, background vocals); Rex (bass, background vocals); Vinnie Paul (drums, background vocals).
Additional personnel: Big Ross (keyboards); Seth Putnam (background vocals).
Recorded at Chasin Jason Studios, Texas and Nothing Studios, New Orleans, Louisiana.
"Suicide Note Pt. I" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.
Pantera's fourth major-label album is as dementedly metallic as anything the band has done. Over the years, this band has built a massive following with its adroit combination of guitar virtuosity that rivals Metallica's and an attitude as dark as Nine Inch Nails'. Philip Anselmo's vocals for THE GREAT SOUTHERN TRENDKILL were recorded at Trent Reznor's Nothing Studios, and they are positively demonic. They perfectly complement Dimebag Darrell's thunderous and dexterous guitar work. Vinnie Paul's ferocious, double-kick drumming is the final garnish on Pantera's infernal sound. Pantera may be the definitive modern metal band.
Editorial Reviews
...mature speedmetal and perfect summer fun: twisted power ballads, rap-style toasting, almost radio-worthy melodies, plus all the right jackhammer drum jolts, wrestler bellows, and guitar lurch...
Spin (07/01/1996)
...It makes my brain hurt, my eyes water and my genitalia retract like a startled turtle. I cannot think of higher recommendation, considering the kind of album it is. If it made me feel all warm and gooey or tearful and lovelorn, then it would be a pitiful failure by its own lights...
Melody Maker (05/25/1996)
5 (out of 5) - ...This album is tight and well thought-out, and as a result it goes from strength to savage strength...
