no I wasn't inferring that Pantera were nu metal at all. I was just trying to work out what you meant by saying they changed the direction of metal riffs (or however you put it) - surely the obvious thing that FOLLOWED on from Pantera's approach was nu metal if anything.
p.s. yeah maiden pwn

Haha, so much trouble over a guy who has been dead over a year. He didn't do shit for metal and well, if he had I could see there being some reason to mourn his death. People like Quarthon and Schuldiner deserve to be mourned, not some one like Dimebag.
EDIT: Dimebag did not master his instrument at all, not even close to it.

You fucking loser. So your argument is firstly that Maiden should split up (justify that to anyone who has seen them live recently), which is bloody irrelevant.
And then - THEN - your argument is that you beat me because GEORGE BUSH is your leader? You fucking retard.

Well to be a band, you gotta make good albums too, which they haven't done much of. Maiden could tour until 2100 probably, but they'll still be writing horseshit songs compared to 1988. They should have split in 91, even though I liked the Blaze albums. It would have saved everyone some heaadaches, and they'd still be rich motherfuckers.
But who am I to say a band SHOULD stop? I'd rather just not listen to them, or buy all the greatest hits and live albums we've been deluged with lately just so somebody can make a few more bucks.
But you're right, it's irrelevant.

Why not, noone else seems to correctly categorize metal bands.
Pantera=nu-metal(?!)
Iron Maiden=hair band(?!?!)
Black Dhalia Murder=metalcore(?!?!?!)
Amazing how opinions change in a short year since my own troll of this community after that degenerate fuckup died in a storm of well-fired bullets.
Douchebag Darrell was not a "master" of his instrument. He was a subpar, alcoholic, mediocre guitar drone who had nothing whatsoever to say artistically. Making mainstreamified, saccharine, easily-digestable "metal" does not qualify a person for the demigod-like status you occluded one-dimensional fanboys are confering upon him. Get your heads out of your asses, wake up to the fact that there are plenty of other, far better guitar players out there who are actually doing something which is artistically worthwhile, instead of polluting metal with generic recombinant garbage, and quit wasting bandwidth.

dimebag was a good guitar player, not a virtuoso, not even close.
i agree that he is overated, people call him the best ever, thats just stupid.
I don't listen to pantera anymore, but i remember when i was 12 years old, when vulgar display of power came out and back then that was something i never heard before (those days i listen to maiden, halloween, guns and roses and that kind of music i dont like nowadays eheh oh and metallica of course).
pantera open the doors for me, for great metal bands, first sepultura, machine head(this one is shit of course but burn my eyes was a good album) and those big names of the early 90s, then carcass, kreator and lots of death metal, thrash, the good stuff.
pantera was a important band for me because of that, i think they are average nowadays (13 years later eheh), still they have good songs, some classic songs like cemetary gates, and like it or not, they are a big name in the history of metal.
but like most big names in the history of metal, i think they are overrated.
but i respect them as band. as persons i dont care really. its a shame that he died, but its life, so move on.

I love how the only flames people around are capable of using are either sexual attacks, or suicide encouragement.MadeInNewJersey said:
