Excerpt: Vulgar Display of Power is the sixth studio album by American heavy metal band Pantera. It was released through Atco Records, on February 10, 1992. One of the most influential metal albums of the 1990s, Vulgar Display of Power has been described as "one of the defining albums of the groove-metal genre." Several songs from this release have become some of the band's best known, such as "Mouth for War," "This Love," and "Walk." During the 1980s, Pantera released four albums under their own Metal Magic label. Their first three albums, featuring vocalist Terry Glaze, were glam metal records heavily influenced by bands such as Van Halen and Kiss. Having dropped Terry Glaze and welcoming vocalist Phil Anselmo in 1987, Pantera moved away from the glam-inspired music with their fourth studio album, Power Metal (1988). In 1989, the band signed with Atlantic Records' subsidiary label, Atco Records, having impressed Atco representative Mark Ross. The band began work on their major label debut at Pantego Sound Studio in Pantego, Texas, and in the following year they released Cowboys from Hell (1990). The album was a key turning point for Pantera, demonstrating a change in the band's musical direction, which was focused on bands such as Slayer, Metallica and Black Sabbath. After the release of Cowboys from Hell, ...

Pantera was an American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas. They were formed in 1981 by the Abbott brothers, Vinnie Paul (drums) and Dimebag Darrell (guitar), along with vocalist Terry Glaze. Bassist Rex Brown joined the band the next year. Looking for a new and heavier sound, Pantera had Terry replaced in 1987 with Phil Anselmo as the new vocalist. Pantera has sold around 20 million albums. Starting as a glam metal band, Pantera released four albums during the 1980s. For their fifth album, Cowboys from Hell, released in 1990, Pantera introduced a heavier groove metal sound. Their sixth album Vulgar Display of Power, released in 1992, revealed a heavier sound than Cowboys from Hell and their 1994 release of Far Beyond Driven debuted at No.1 on the Billboard 200. Tensions began to surface amongst the band members when Phil Anselmo became addicted to heroin in 1995. This resulted in the recording sessions for The Great Southern Trendkill, released in 1996, to be held separately. The ongoing tension lasted for another seven years, in which only one studio album, Reinventing the Steel, released in 2000, was recorded. Pantera went on hiatus in 2001, but was disbanded by the Abbott brothers in 2003 after concluding Anselmo would not return to the band. The Abbott brothers went on and subsequently formed Damageplan, while Anselmo began work on several side projects, including Down in which Rex Brown joined as well. Any hopes of a reunion were lost on December 8, 2004, when Dimebag Darrell was shot and killed onstage by a deranged fan during a Damageplan concert in Columbus, Ohio.
