Pantera - The Sleep (HQ)

R.I.P. Dimebag Darrell
Artist: Pantera
Track: The Sleep
Album: Cowboys From Hell
Lyrics:
Understanding what has
Happened before us
We are confined to a
Darkened hidden tomb
The conquering of our world
As we knew it
Rise above this pit
Of sorrow and pain
Among the few
We are the avant leaders
We've got to live
Through this trouble and decay
This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?
Unsure and scared
We are planning our reprise
Revolves around this world
We don't know anymore
The odds against us
Yet we're stronger and prevailing
Learn from mistakes
Counting souls for sale
This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?

I think this is one of the most overlooked solo's in metal history

[@TheJesseGladSaget]

steve sullivan Most definitely. Especially the 2nd one. That shit is fucking epic.

[@dugp1862]

Dude not even the solo. Which kicks ass btw, but the song structure is so different for any worthy metal band at the time. Love the sludgey verse...sick. And when you think it's over its not. Dime keeps you guessing. Genious.

[@pumba5419]

Damn right it is! It's my favorite... everytime that first not hits it I get goosebumps. If I die this song has to be played at my funeral

[@MetalMe76]

steve sullivan.....almost tears every time I hear this solo.....never be another soul piercer like this one played on any instrument EVER!!!

[@TheSinistarr]

Makes my lady parts tingle.

[@jeighth2721]

This masterpiece contains one of the greatest solos from the all time greatest metal guitarist of all time

[@Wrathofkala]

Most underrated Pantera song IMO....

[@crazyerko]

Dime will not be forgotten as long as I live! I will name Pantera as my favorite band forever

[@Infernal_Elf]

Rest in peace Dimebag Darrel you will never be forgotten

[@edwardsixx5017]

the great solo of the world of the all mighty dimebag ... so much emotion gectha pull ...

[@MarcosT.C.]

Rip Brothers Dimebag Darrel & Vinnie Paul, marcaram a historia do Metal 💪🤘 para sempre em minha mente e meu coração! Viva o Pantera!

[@justiceloomis4594]

Pantera never gets old, miss ya darel

[@cavemanbricklayer4008]

Solo has pure emotion man hes making that guitar talk

[@K31R616]

When I opened my eyes after 'airing' the solo, all I saw was Dime smiling back at me...

[@brimstonevalar6053]

same

[@boltaction8437]

That solo makes my heart cry 😢 Every time. Dime bag is such an inspiration to me 🤘🤘

[@angelclementine4718]

I wonder what it was like for the band actually writing this song. It's amazing something so beautiful and true came from them; it shows a deeper part of who they are/were as people. Every song they wrote meant something. Doesn't matter if it was about heroin addiction, media, or being a fucking cowboy... these guys are the best. Probably one of the greatest Pantera songs ever written here, too... the way the guitar comes in and out... insane, wow. Dimebag will always be the man, no matter what.

[@musicman1977]

Vincent “Vinnie” Paul Abbott....RIP, give a big hug to Dime for all of us! Metal for life! Feel sorry for your Dad and Rita...

[@nuteipachuau77]

One of the best guitar solos in metal history

[@Squiggleee]

I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG

[@carolyncorley8059]

Dime's solo in this is my ringtone!!

[@MadNut321]

+Carolyn Corley Thanks for the idea :)

[@johstybach]

My ringtone is from pantera, too.

[@TSMSL406]

marry me babe

[@bronsonespinoza5879]

Pantera one of the best bands of all time. Rest in peace dimebag and vinnie paul. Pantera forever. Mad respect.

[@pillarsofserpents]

That chorus riff is so damn catchy. It just has so much power to it.

[@hedsik]

+regression its the solo that's gets me. it seems to creep into your ears and into your brain to savour forever. and ever.

[@pillarsofserpents]

+James Williams - the solo is definitely damn cool. but doesn't get stuck in my head for days like that chorus riff. ha.

[@hanniballecter7282]

+regression hell yeah dude ... i agree .. the back up riff .. while he plays the solo.. is insane

[@Meshuggapeth]

The chorus takes it to the next level, but it's the verse/main riff that instantly hooks you into the song and keeps the groove going.

[@gu4ass]

Dime's guitar is fucking agressive ! i love it yessir , rock On

[@ashenone3675]

fuck man I can't even listen to this solo without getting the feels

[@robertholl1974]

what a loss. a senseless tragedy. another great guitar player taken from us. makes me sad now to hear him or see him. rock on brother! R.I.P. Dime

[@brimstonevalar6053]

Dimebag solo is amazing..

[@michaelglindmyer3336]

To me , Dime’s best solo

[@aubreyball6128]

How could anyone dislike this song...

[@DavidRamirez-bm4by]

virgins

[@dugp1862]

Vagina ears

[@Njesrah79]

Still kickin in 3017

[@HisDudeness1986]

Lyrically, and in many ways musically and artistically, I always found this album to be the apex of the band's work.

[@ivanpejanovic7627]

+His Dudeness Well, in terms of lyrics i would say Great Southern Trendkill. But on CFH Phils wokals were godlike, and for me this album has that clean sound that i like about it.

[@toddbeck7352]

Yes, I agree. Saw them play it live in 89 at a club in Houston

[@SeptemberSeventeenth]

No words for this, gets deep in to my mind, can't explain it. Amazing

[@Luke-ofStoke-Factor]

REST IN HEAVEN VINNIE AND DIMEBAG LEGENDS FOREVER. 2004 + 2018.

[@Madman6505]

This question haunts my mind: why would anyone thumbs down this?

[@oskorei123]

I like to think they were just drunk as shit listening to Pantera and the screen was swirling all over the place. They had a 50/50 chance of hitting the right button and just missed.

[@emilienfalcimaigne8065]

No other explanation possible

[@vapordreams983]

5:12 gave me chills

[@duartmkt]

the solo take us to the heaven

[@zolikar1]

Rest in peace Vinnie Paul! \,,/,

[@Garo.11]

Dimebag was a God amongst mortals... holy fuck the riffs and solos....

[@DrizztJL]

HEAVY METAL PROM DANCE SONG \m/

[@jasonschrantz342]

best record of 1990. dawned the end of the 80's synth pop bullshit. this was a full year before anybody knew who nirvana was. these guys got me through high school in the early 90's.

[@frankberg4266]

rust in peace is a contender. just my opinion tho

[@johstybach]

Frank Berg I would tie them. Tornado of souls and the sleep Both the best solos ever in the same year

[@11DNA11]

1990 was a great year for metal overall. CFH Rust In Peace Painkiller Just plain metal done right :)

[@musicman1977]

11DNA11 Don’t forget Danzig’s Lucifuge, a blues metal masterpiece, though I don’t really know if anybody in the metal community really cares about his band, they kick ass!

[@11DNA11]

More of a Misfits guy myself :) Although Danzig still has cool tunes :)

[@11DNA11]

The solo is so fucking underrated. Talk about having feeling when you play :)

[@cavemanbricklayer4008]

Beautiful guitar work

[@oldmategio]

[@SeptemberSeventeenth]

[@lukemccoy2848]

[@HamburgerMolester]

most under-rated solo....take THIS to the ballad-box......

[@mactire1288]

Love that fucking trumpet solo Fuck yes

[@mikechristianson3606]

honestly, they need to end the tension between them. Dime would want that, he wouldnt want this.

[@rickyrankin6580]

One of there best

[@gazimbo3176]

100% the best metal song ever, it is my opinion and you cant change it, even if you think i am wrong you are, by default, wrong. the structure and dynamic of this song is unreal, and as for the solo, well it is the best solo ever written,no other guitarist could Wright that, no one will ever Wright anything as good, ever, period. hold on to this guys and girls, there will never be a band like this, stay true.

[@hanniballecter7282]

+desolationrow. lol .. i think floods is way up there too... with cementary gates . and the sleep

[@cfhpantera160]

bud you said it perfectly rest in peace brother dime

[@ismaeldeleija8165]

For me the best metal songs are Tornado of Souls - Megadeth (thrash metal) and The Sentinel - Judas Priest (heavy metal) but this one is close, its a really good one because of that amazing solo!

[@MarioPerez-ms4tq]

One of the best lyrics in pantera.fosu el cubichehavana!👍

[@killerdove123]

2:34 - 4:39 Epicness

i cry when hear the solo the cemitery gates

[@paulmurray954]

you werent even born when he was alive dude

[@johstybach]

+paul murray Does that really matter? I mean it certainly contributes, but if you are crying about it and you are from a younger generation, that just shows how legendary his legacy was.

[@johnnyappleseed856]

Yup Diamond Darrell knew how to jam.

[@StONed-mb1iv]

Vinnie, may your sleep be metallic like. Called on to another drumline. R.I.P.
