    Leah, you stick up for Korn but bash Pantera... I am dissapoint :-S
    I stick up for Korn up till Untouchables. I like songs here and there afterwards. But I've never been a huge fan of pantera...it's just eh to me
    Everyone who says Pantera is just eh or meh? can you please give me some reasons as to why they are just meh or eh besides that? That's all anyone ever says if they dont like Pantera is theyre either heh or overrated, i never hear anyone give me a good reason. That's what leads me to believe people never really gave them a chance and is just joining the crowd in saying they are overrated cause they are not, theyre a very good band.
    Phil Anselmo sounds like he just deep throated a cock every time he sings

    Some people don't like certain food, some people don't like certain bands.
    They're eh to me because it's a little boring. I can't listen to them for more then a couple songs at a time and I can't pinpoint if it's the guitar or vocals. I've never been able to really put my finger on much besides they can't hold my interest for very long at all
    Trust me, I'm not hating or tryna be an ass at all. I understand people don't like certain bands and that's cool with me. I'm just looking for reasons besides they're overrated and meh.

    I really don't see Pantera as boring. They add alot of different styles to their music, theirs power metal, sludge, rock, groove, they even have some breakdowns and killer solo's. not every Pantera song sounds the same at all. The guitars are definately not boring, dime has a blues style metal that he plays with almost thrash style solos. their music has alot of soul and upbeats. and they even have breakdowns which they save for perfect times in songs, mixed with killer clean riffs and baddass solos. The singer is great, he has multiple styles, he has a great singing voice and can also scream highpithced like other popular metal bands, but also has a badass swagger about his voice that almost reminds me of a modern hardcore band. he i think the singer is mostly where the soul sound of the band comes from. he brings so much to the table vocally where alot of other bands have one singing style. the bass player is the bass player, he's good, but any decent bass player could play in pantera. the only thing i could see someone have an argument with boring is the drums, they are very plain and nothing spectacular, but he's better than lars.

    I understand if people dont like pantera, but i think alot of people just really never gave them a chance...

    a few songs that shows their variety in music... please listen to these songs and tell me they are boring and plain, its just not true. once again i'm not hating, i just think people havent really heard them and just folow the complex they believe about them.

    I'm not worked up, I just here people bash Pantera for no reason all the time and I'm trying to understand why. There's alot of bands out there that I don't really like, but I realize they arent bad and have done alot for the music indrusty , so I dont bash them. I said it before, I think most of the people bashing Pantera are just following others and never really heard them. I'm not mad at all.

    heres (some) of my previous statements explaining godsmack fail...

    "Godsmack is way worse, same crap over and over again. slow boring riffs, drummer sucks, cmon...Cry like a bitch?, I mean I know LB is corny, but Godsmack is supposed to be this manly metal band, they fail on all levels, tell your boy sully to sing once in a different tone... "

    "sully has one tone to all his songs, the riffs are slow and boring, the drumming is mediocre at best, and every song sounds the same <_> the only reason theyre still around is because they are a tolerable radio band and the "metal" radio stations overplay their bullshit garbage music. I stick by my story, the recent godsmack love is all becasue they are on the tour, noone ever talked about godsmack before, they will wash right out of this forum as soon as mayhem is over barely to be ever talked about again."

    I'm serious, I don't like Pantera or Damageplan. I can tolorate a few Pantera songs and like one Damageplan song. Both.sond pretty much the same for me...even though technically they're the same damn band just with a different bassist. Both are just, for lack of a better word, boring
