HIP HOP FAN'S FIRST TIME HEARING 'Pantera - Strength Beyond Strength' | GENUINE REACTION

[@gamleskalle1]

Still the heaviest album being nr. 1 in USA Billboard charts back in 94.

[@lsu1992]

The mfer DEBUTED at #1.

[@donaldlamendola1392]

I've always thought this was the album they found their true sound and Great Southern Trendkill is the one they mastered it.

[@lsu1992]

@@donaldlamendola1392 I agree 100%. The Trent Reznor production of Trendkill was the missing puzzle piece in perfecting the Pantera sound.

[@SamThredder]

​ @lsu1992 Reznor never produced Trendkill, Terry Date did. Anselmo just recorded his vocals at Reznor's studio

It doesn't get more in your face, head ripping than this. Pure unadulterated no f's given. Just destruction. This album is amazing. Enjoy.

[@eliot2283]

“A New Level” has always been my favorite Pantera song. It’s super heavy without being overly thrasy. I still think it’s their best song so I’m not sure why hardly anybody reacts to it.

[@joshuamasserant8215]

This opening song is far different than anything you'll ever hear/experience again in your life. This song is super unique and different in many awesome ways. It sets the perfect mood for the next song Becoming.

You should check out the first album by Down “NOLA”. Phil from Pantera is the singer. It’s like southern/blues metal with some groove. Doesn’t go as hard as Pantera, but it’s heavy and moody and awesome.

[@Fettman89]

I was showing some friends Metallica live in Seattle '89 and it was before the show started and them like walking to the stage, and I was explaining to my friends, " Metallica was on top of the world, no one could touch them." And just as I said that one of the security guys patted Lars on the back as he walked by and one of my friends in the purest deadpan voice said, "That guy just touched him." I couldn't stop laughing for like 5 minutes lol. You're comment just reminded me of that so thought I'd share.

I have the intro for I'm broken as my ring tone, I never want to answer my phone though 😅

[@jeffreyresnick9801]

Absolutely no doubt about it, This is one of the most thrashiest songs they've ever recorded. Almost teetering on industrial metal, ala Ministry, or Mushroom Head. Love to see you react to both those bands,mos def. Getting back to this shredder, the band is on fire,and Dimebag is ON POINT! Speaking of Dimebag,(RIP) I commented on your killer reaction to Cowboys from Hell from Pantera, and Suggested for your reaction to Dimebag's best friend's band, Zakk Wyldes' Black Label Society, and their live video of "In This River" which Zakk specifically wrote for Dimebag, after his tragic demise. MB, I wouldn't ask for your reaction to this song, if i didn't think it would blow your mind and send chills from Zakk's incredibly emotional and dagger-like guitar work. And since I know how much you appreciate masterpiece musianship, this performance will NOT disappoint. Trust me, this one's Playlist worthy, brother. Don't doddle, just do it,and turn it up! Still loving your reactions ,and I'm absolutely chuffed to be on this journey with you. Thanks, rock on! 🤘👍👌✌👊🤘

[@chaospoet]

I'll never forget the first time I heard this. This is the first song on the album. I was so excited for a new Pantera album that I made the mistake of cranking my stereo, which was ungodly loud, in a small bedroom, up as loud as it could go. I literally screamed like a scared little girl and jumped backwards so hard I nearly put myself through the wall behind me. Was not expecting this to kick in that fast and hard. Scared the fuck out of me.

[@WeerdMunkee]

I saw Pantera 4 times live. Twice on the Far Beyond tour, and twice when they were supporting Great Southern. They did not miss a note or a beat. They were PERFECT and even explored some improv!! Watching Dimebag Darrell throw his guitar around his entire body, catch it and never miss a note was something to behold!!

I love LOVE to see you do these two songs from this record , Su1cide Notes Part 1 and Part 2 . ( I tried to censor the word ya feel me ? ) But the first song is slow and soft while the second song tears through you like you were torpedoed through a razorblade factory ! But you almost need to do both back to back on the same vid for the epic effect . But that's on you bub . Just a suggestion . I know every Pantera fan would love that .

I'm Broken is my favourite track from this album!!! that shit slaps

Yeah...Pantera is touring right now reformed with 2 original members and two massive metal names to replace the Abbot Brothers Zakk Wylde from Ozzy Osborne's band/Black Label Society on guitar, and Charlie Benante from freeking Anthrax on drums...those 2 guys go way back with Pantera so there is really no one better to join the band as sort of a tribute to the old days...there are a lot of very recent live videos from their 2023 concerts all over the world...they sound really good. I know a lot of purists didn't want this to happen without the Abbots, but I think it's great to hear the old stuff again live...

PanterA's last album Reinventing the Steel came out in 2000 and they broke up in 2003 so 21 years ago. Phil is the only one who looked different everyone else looked the same just older. PanterA is Groove Metal which is similar to Thrash Metal. Groove Metal is heavily influenced by Thrash Metal, but is focused more on heaviness as opposed to speed. 🤘🤘

Can you believe this album went number 1 on the billboard charts in the U.S. in the first week with zero radio play or promotion ? I mean this beat out stuff like Whitney Houston and pop groups . I know I bought it the day it came out .
