Hanging with Phil Anselmo - 2012 Interview at Phil's House

[@DriveByGuy]

I now have a deep desire to meet Phil Anselmo and tell him how great of a man he is. He went from an asshole who's got everything to prove, and nothing to lose, to a very well defined, respectable, mature dude. Hats off to yah.

[@49erfevah]

I went in for a handshake and he went total bro hug! I was in such shock and awe, he stood there and talked with me like we had been friends our whole lives. Feeling like I was taking too much of his time, I started to walk away and he grabbed me up for another hug! Best front man ever! Class act, way more gracious than I ever would have expected! Love ya Kid!

[@JoelTenor]

I'm so glad he's powered through and is living proof of the resiliency he loves so much! Love ya Phil!

[@flosscal1]

Thank you Phil..we love you man and thanx for the music \m/

[@Rasputina29]

I've also been through a lot of shit- abuse,addiction,death,loss and so on but I came back from it all. Much like Phil has so it's been awesome 2 watch him over the years. I'm in pain every single day and his music is one of the few things that helps me through it. I just wish I could personally thank him.

[@his70chevelle1996]

He is such a sweetheart

[@goosegutz]

One of the best speakers who ever hit a rock stage.An amazingly down to earth and intelligent man. Yes he would make a great president!

[@majorccunliffe4662]

[@PyrettaBlazeGames]

[@henrikjensen3340]

Good to see him in this condition, knowing what' he has Bern trough...

[@jay64stang]

[@prestoncrowley5595]

That was a pretty good positive interview

[@priestof1]

Good luck brother

[@xmlviking]

Phil is on the cusp of religion.

[@toodyface]

You look well Phil, that's good.

[@reinholdsklinefelter3879]

I don't think he said "fuck" one single time. What the fuck Phil?

[@thewonderfulMRnoob]

Fukin' right? Fuck

[@Sardine4189]

***** I know, fuck..

[@AvyScottandFlower]

*****What da fuck is with all this fucking comments? I mean, fuck..

[@AvyScottandFlower]

Word has lost all it's fucking meaning now

[@michellesolis8766]

around 5:38 he says "fuckin" once. I'm sure he said it more times tho, lol!

[@GSHdesign]

"...ya lose ducks...." fuckin guy is a god.

[@Elayaass]

i wish i could meet him before i die

[@matejkramar8929]

my walls cracked when his voice came out

[@mattmccaffery8261]

Whats the song at the beggining of this metal heads?????

[@MrDutchman97]

What's the song playing at 5:42 if anyone knows please?

[@pointtheblame]

9:25 bad ass metal crox !

[@markheelis]

Say what you want about him, he really is a fascinating guy to listen to. He does seem like the kind of guy you could have the deepest, most meaningful conversation with. He is probably the kind of guy who never lets his friends down and would do anything for you if you mean something to him. Much respect.

[@trickznmix]

This guy has the most alpha voice I have ever heard

[@yourmum101ful]

years of smoking, alcohol and shouting at the top of your lungs does that to a man xD

[@RaduGrigoriu]

+trickznmix when Phil talks, time stops.

[@AeroFix94]

+trickznmix would love to see him in a movie, a villian or something :P

[@evilchic006]

You better respect son

[@Shanan81]

Phils a nice guy, give him a break, the past is the past!

[@MarioGarcia-tr4ev]

of course he is! i dont care about what he said in dimebash... He looks very friendly it would be great meeting him.... He's not a monster, he's a guy like us

[@mariusschlechter775]

Wickle Pinksnout Sorry, my english is not the best. Fuck vinnie he hasn't even got the balls to talk to phil in Person . I think Phil is a great Person, yeah he did some dumb things in the past but his Problem is that he sometimes doesn't think about that what hes saying and vinnie is judging phil for things phil doesn't even ment to say. That's my opinion.

[@mariusschlechter775]

***** you are my man, no one could have said this better. get' cha pull

[@justinp8946]

shazza agree! He's actually a good guy

[@11DNA11]

Funny thing is... If it was Vinnie who got killed. Dime would've forgiven Phil.

[@Septiksiren666]

"I'm Phil Anselmo and this is my swamp"

[@stevebuschemi2205]

This guy ain't no racist, he's too clever for that

[@lukeknutson3191]

This guy is awesome, Im happy to see him in such better shape and more personable then 10 years ago. I met him, and he was a really down to earth nice guy.

[@84hendrixnirvana]

"he overcame heroin"!!!👍much admiration...

[@philnoble8014]

84hendrixnirvana ....I am going into rehab 2mz to come off Methadone! I'm scared and excited at the prospect of "feeling" again after 15 years off Fog!!!!! I'm drawing as much inspiration as I can from this guy!!! 👍🏼

[@ryandoran6963]

Phil Noble How are you doing now mate?

[@paulablack1863]

Phil Noble You can do it! I know you can. I was in the same exact situation as yours and Phil's. Don't get me wrong, the path is hard and some days u will want to give up fully but don't. The sickness isn't the worst part. It's the mental part that takes a year or so to feel "normal" again. But think about it, what's a year outta your whole life. You will start to feel extremely depressed and agitated. Just fight through it and if needed, go to a doctor who can help. NOT one who will prescribe more narcotics. But one who can help with relaxing your muscles, sleep and fighting the dreaded depression that comes with it. You can conquer this, i promise... JUST DON'T GIVE UP! MUCH LOVE TO PHIL!!!!

[@myrabethlittle7093]

man I love Phil Anselmo I'm a strong heterosexual but I am not at all ashamed to say that...

[@wizanoctivagos]

Myra Beth Little same here dude, a full admiration for master anselml

[@vcupiano]

Dude is really deep and probably quite intelligent and I don't say that lightly. Makes me love Pantera even more.

[@Jake8857]

I don't think there is anybody who can express themselves as good or better as Phil Anselmo. He's fucking deep man.

[@Ramoa111]

Phil when tha fuck is your book coming out??? GODDAMMIT!!

[@IffeWar]

The guy that Phil was writing the book with is the same guy who co-funded the House Core Horror Film Festival. That same guy passed away a few months ago. So you can imagine that the book will be delayed a bit. It was supposed to come out in Jan 2015.

[@infinightsky]

You can say that again!

[@lukeknutson3191]

Fernando Ramoa considering his co-writer Corey Mitchell died last year... it seems to be in hiatus. I dont think it was even finished at the time either..

[@Riker535]

+Fernando Ramoa More thumbs up,cmon people

[@shaunsimms8839]

Fernando Ramoa never, he said he doesn't want to do it anymore

[@johnjiii4133]

Stronger than all!!!!

[@Ambitionz530]

This is my favorite interview with Phil, it shows how much he has matured over the years and how optimistic he is about life despite all he has been through. Especially after the Heroin addiction, losing Dimebag, and having to carry the burden for that even though he had nothing to do with Dime's murder. Phil is a genuine artist and I got nothing but respect for the man and admire him and his music.

[@eyeswideopen886]

Been down with the kid for since I was fourteen.. Now im 35 still stomping to the kid, Fucking legend true to form. All the best from UK..

[@jmasonrcingabout273]

My dad told me about this video, and I didn't think that Phill (screaming, roaring and giving the middle finger) would be doing yoga and talking to ducks. It just goes to show that people can appreciate the good fortune they have had and help the younger bands trying to make a place for themselves. Good on ya Phill.

[@MrUltraworld]

Phil has really bad back problems. They gave him Soma for the pain & it took over his life. He's quit the pills, but the back problems are still there. He's seems to be in a good place. Love what he's doing for young bands.

[@IncomeBeast]

A Chapter I would like to see in Phil's book: "How To Create Your Mental Callus"

[@leemackay5200]

so happy to see this man clear eyed and sounding great!!!!

[@DeathcrushEuronymous]

Phil man, you are a huge inspiration, i'm 21 and blew a disc in my back when i was 19 loading lumber. 2 years later and it still feels like i wake up in a car wreck every morning. Was stoned on painkillers for a while till i got fed up and decided to take reality as it was. People who don't have chronic back pain should consider themselves very blessed.

[@jacobpollock6061]

Phil is fucking awesome. I look up to the guy a lot.

[@howzaou812]

Love that first Down album...sooooo good.

[@unleash-hell6666]

Damn!!!!..Phil still looks fucken young!!! AWESOME bro!!!

[@stonewolves4923]

That musician/boxer analogy was gold, Phil. Well done, sir....

[@813lynch]

I am sitting here in pain from my knee,lower back and ankle damage in my left leg but i am listening to Phil and you know what,i am somewhat content listening too what he says. Every time i am down and out,i mean out...of my script,i listen to the Loyola interview & think yeah man i can do this. Just 1 fucking day at a time,not by choice but by force.

[@Thegamingground]

This Is one of THE best interviews I ever seen with Phil Anselmo. His very down to earth, up close and personal here. And I love him for that. Take care Phil, we love ya!

[@BlmGarten]

I really like the sound of his voice :)

[@johnnyrockit913]

I have all the respect in the world for this man he helped me discover metal.he's the best bar none.

[@haunebu2360]

Phil is as genuine as it gets.

[@jvickers5937]

I feel him.....Had a failed fusion surgery and never recovered.....I watch this quite a bit. It is inspring as a Pantera junky and as somebody with chronic pain...........Hard as hell to deal with.

[@DoctorLipsh1ts]

God that was incredible. Thanks so much for this.

[@GoatOfTheWoods]

Pantera and Down, thank you for everything you did

[@MrJared93]

I don't care what anyone says about Phil the guys a legend and has been a huge inspiration to millions in the world of heavy metal

[@joaojr7918]

This guy is one of the best singer i heard in my life...a complete singer, his problems was hard, he is a lucky man!

[@donp753]

You are fortunate that you are still alive brother............

[@Algorithm347]

Love the England flag in the background 🤘🏻👍🏻💪🏻

[@gehesgereaum3233]

Phil Anselmo greatest frontman of the greatest metal band, ever!!

[@Racosz]

His best interview.

[@guitarroxxer02]

It's been my dream to record some stuff with him

[@swahiliburger]

I have had constant pain behind my left eye for years after a sporting accident, interviews with people as hard and as strong as phil help me deal with it, respect to him.

[@yungpadawan1098]

Phils a top bloke, and this interview really portrays him as the man he is. I met him once 2 years ago when he was performing in DOWN and as he said, his a much more approachable guy than he's made out to be (and possibly that he was during his heroin years). Hopefully get a chance to meet him again someday.

[@grade8fabrication]

WE NEED MORE INTERVIEWS LIKE THIS!!

[@neinosdevodamo]

What a great interview.

[@sarahxbee]

That's all of it, no second part unfortunately, but hopefully there will be more like this in the future!

[@SGTASMR]

i love that headnod at the end of each answer, like thats it, next question

[@dustinzoll2535]

love this guys thoughts on life at this time for him

[@RansomedSin]

I have so much respect for this man.

[@ween69]

he has come a long way from the phil of 20 years ago ,and so has axl rose not even the same guy

[@gasmaskboi19371945]

Hahahaha. It was amazing watching him feed the ducks.

[@ulfingvar1]

Great guy, great creative spirit..good that he kicked the bad habits. All the best of luck, Phil.

[@AllhailtheUS]

Phil is just one of those intriguing cats that I would love to just sit and shoot the breeze with. He seems genuine and sincere and not an egocentric "rockstar" type...may be wrong, but he doesn't come off like that...at least not anymore. Hell, look at his crib... doesn't have anything over the top...just laid back. Phil, you're the man.

[@Mrgrimmz99]

Anyone know the band(s) he's recording with around 4:00 onward? Sounds badass.

[@Chester_Copperpot]

Most humbling interview I've ever seen of Phil. Awesome.

[@iTip28]

So many different layers to this man. phenomenal interview!

[@OkinawanSuidii]

one of the best interviews on youtube. Phil is a real dude.. love em... Algiers504

[@rihirdo]

he has got such great charisma,some people just have it naturally ,and he always had it !!

[@dylanparker50]

when he pretends his tounge got cut off xD

[@CollectiveHabits]

its crazy how he's changed so much over the years..so much more mature now lol...Phil is and will always be a Metal God in my opinion...he changed quite a few generations...turned my life around completely with Pantera..

[@adamturner1563]

Love coming back here. Seeing Blue when he was just a pup lol. Great Albums followed this footage.

[@MeekDrill]

Love you Phil

[@hetfield4president]

Thats what I experienced... there was a bunch of guys waiting at the bus in the freezing cold after a DOWN show. At first he quickly passed us and got on the bus, obviously very tired and highly intoxicated. He told us that he was jsut dropping of his stuff and would be out in a minute. I thought he would never ever step out into the cold again to talk to a bunch of dudes, but he actually did! He took his time, talked to every single one, signed stuff and made some fun. Class dude!

[@GINERDCOMMANDER]

amazing incite into phil's life. over all great interview!

[@MrPhilno1]

Love this Interview

[@gungaroid]

Massive fan! Through his music, this man has picked me up off the ground many times..

[@wrongshirts7375]

if Phil was placed into Avenger/Fast 7/ Expendables/ i would treasure that movie as long as i live!

[@dannypqliar8763]

It's so awesome to see so many people in the comments saying genuinely good things and really getting to the core of who Phil is. One thing is for sure: he's got a powerful personality, and that is how people need to live their lives - to be an individual, to make up your own mind about things, and to own it and not blame anybody else for your misfortunes. That is why he'd be such a good motivational speaker.

[@multiestonian]

I don't care what people say about Phil, i respect him and what he has written. He and all other 3 members have the privilege to call Pantera one of the greaterst bands in history.

[@noahwooldridge2644]

Even if he's not a man of faith, I see him as no less of a great person. Phil is a good dude that continues to inspire people in the metal culture and even beyond that.

[@sarahxbee]

Stephanie, will you been recording any time soon? Southern Isolation is so, so good!

[@CajunGodfather]

Phil is one of the coolies guy i have ever met

[@TheMilimanatary1]

Very inspirational. Especially with all the shit he's been through. This is the kind of guy that can now change lives. He has the reach to understand anyone in spite of who they are. You rock Phil!

[@Hammersmashed68]

Absolutely love Phil...he has overcome and conquered so much, and as a person and musician, I can't help but respect him and EVERYTHING he does.

[@mwmp1]

Phil is in my prayers. Im glad he has found happiness and glad he is still treating us with music. even if its behind the board.

[@InkedMisfit]

I would love to be on Housecore
