059: Pantera Far Beyond Driven Album Dive

Pantera had a gift for outdoing themselves with every song and every album. Just when you thought it couldn’t possibly be any heavier, they come around the corner and prove you wrong. FAR BEYOND DRIVEN, Pantera’s 3rd release (post Power Metal) blends the intensity and thrashy groove of Vulgar with the aggression and brutal heaviness of Trendkill. (No wonder it went to Number 1!!!)

JOIN US as we dive in, talk about the tracks, the production, the heaviness and the vulgar vulgarity that we all know and love courtesy of the metal band that OWNED heavy music in the 1990’s.
