Rate The Musician/Artist #20 - Pantera
Well Last time we had Tenacious D, who scored a decent, although none too great score of 59, starting in the bottom of the list, now lets see if this one can snap the top 10.
Pantera http://www.bmi.com/images/musicworld...tera_1_500.jpg Pantera was an influential American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas, that formed in 1981. Although initially influenced by 1980s glam metal/hard rock bands, thrash metal acts such as Slayer and Metallica as well as traditional metal bands such as Black Sabbath would prove to be influential in the band's significant change in musical direction at the end of the 1980s. Pantera subsequently became a key formulator of the groove metal (post-thrash) subgenre of heavy metal music. It would not be until nine years after forming that Pantera saw its first piece of commercial success in its major label debut, Cowboys from Hell. From there, Pantera became one of the most celebrated heavy metal bands of the 1990s. Despite the generally cold reception of the band's first four albums, critics have lauded Pantera's style thereafter; Jason Birchmeier of the All Music Guide considers Pantera to be "arguably the greatest metal band of '90s and ... one of the greatest and most influential metal bands ever." The band has received accolades such as ranking 45 on VH1's list of the 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock and fifth on MTV's "Top 10 Greatest Heavy Metal Bands of All-Time". Due to long-standing internal conflicts, Pantera dissolved in 2003. The following year, the band's guitarist, "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott, was shot and killed on-stage while performing with his new band, Damageplan. 1) Jimi Hendrix - 91 2) Johnny Cash - 87 3) Tupac - 85 4) Guns N' Roses - 83 5) Dio - 78 6) Dr. Dre - 77 7) Black Sabbath - 76 8) Metallica - 75 9) Garth Brooks - 68 10) Nine Inch Nails - 67 11) Wu Tang Clan - 64 12) The Killers - 61 13) Eminem - 60 14) Slayer - 60 15) Tenacious D - 59 16) NOFX - 59 17) U2 - 40 18) Staind - 31 19) 50 Cent - 27 |

They had 1 good album (Cowboys From Hell). They were a faggoty glam band before that. Phil Anselmo is a huge bitch. Dimebag Darrell (RIP) is wayyyy overrated now that he's dead.
If I were to rate them on Cowboys From Hell alone, yeah 8, 8.5 easily. But otherwise, they suck. |

Anselmo is a complete twat, everybody and his estranged mother knows this Oh and Southern Trendkill is their best song undoubtedly, fuckin awesome. I enjoy all of their post-glam albums, even Reinventing the Steel, but every album had atleast 2 unecessary tracks which loses them some points. |
9 definitely. The way Dimebag died alone should get them higher ratings. :shifty:
Also I have yet to see The Doors get rated, why? |
And you all together run for cover.
|
The Doors will be done eventually.

There is a method to Iceberg's madness.
