Philip Anselmo on 25th Anniversary of 'Vulgar Display of Power' - Loudwire Legacy

[@NateRiversforRever]

Phil's slow talking is just him in story telling mode.

[@GarrickWatkins]

No that's Heroin mode.

[@Rodrigombia1990]

He quit heroin like 2 decades ago, you dumbass

[@GarrickWatkins]

Actually he admits using H during the DOWN II sessions. So who's the dumbass now?

[@GarrickWatkins]

Rayene+ Yeah take up for this ego maniac washed up asshole, who fucked off the best musicians in his time. The Abbot brothers. His new bands couldn't even hold a shit stained candle to Pantera. The band he destroyed for being an asshole, and a heroin addict. Try again.

[@diseasefaktory]

set video speed to 1.25!

[@Original-Juice]

I like to slow the interview down to 0.5 speed to test the Bass on my speakers

[@parthmehra8630]

[@brandonguindon1056]

Oh yeah Phil has always had a good mix of power in his vocals.

[@Jarhead1313]

1.5 is where it's "normal"...

[@EverGreen1888]

People saying he's talking 'slow'?? He's actually being articulate while telling a story without a script. There are no nervous filler bullshit like 'am, am, ah 'uh'...'you know'. The sign of someone who thinks about about what he is saying before saying it and confidently so... In regards to the album...he's 100% right. Being from Europe (Ireland)...very few people had heard about Pantera until Vulgar came out but not because we 'hated' Pantera but because we just hadn't heard of them. Their record company wouldn't have sold Cowboys here without the band being proven and vise versa for European bands

[@lebheidenstrm5392]

Agreed good sir. London here; I remember hearing Mouth For War on MTV, my first exposure to them, and a few months later saw them at the Marquee (1991). For £10. Incredible show and from that moment on they were one of my favourites.

[@airgunnyhighway]

Amen.

[@billrobertjoe]

But he is saying umm and shit

[@damianjohn5995]

Evergreen Frat guy had a heroin addiction that he has been open about for decades so please before posting long stupid shit get a clue

[@evanabbott2737]

Exactly🤘

[@khanage8712]

I was so hoping Phil would say: "Vulgar Display of Power took Pantera, and the world of metal, to A NEW LEVEL, OF POWER AND CONFIDENCE! THAT'S RIGHT!!!" 🎸🎸💥🔥🎶💪

[@TopljiviSir]

ahahahahaha

[@kornfreak78]

Greatest. Metal. Singer. Ever.

[@kevinruiz3061]

kornfreak78 D I O

[@kornfreak78]

Aye, Dio was amazing. But for me? Dio is among the LEGEND status. Dio, Ozzy, Lemmy.. among others. Guys like that are in a whole other level.

[@kevinruiz3061]

kornfreak78 very true ..

[@Jrizzle7426]

he is up there for sure. his energy was unmatched. he was as much of pantera as dimebag to me and it breaks my heart that it all ended so tragically. bot only with dimes death but how ugly it got between them beforehand. but it almost feels fitting that a brutal end to the most intense metal bands of all time. i love ya dime and god bless you phil. legends. rex and vinnie are bad asses too but they took backseat to the power that was the frontmen

[@alienthompson]

I'd say he's definitely in the top five with Dickinson, Halford, and Dio!

[@thewoolycontacts]

phil 's sharpness/ quickness in the way he talks has gotten so much better compared to 3 - 4 years ago. great job, phil!

[@Restoredd]

His interviews took forever to watch haha he talked like a fucking sloth back then, glad to see him getting back to kicking ass

[@LambOfLucifer]

It's called Soma! Google it.

[@n.b.8616]

LambOfLucifer i thought that was just a smashing pumpkins song

[@LambOfLucifer]

It is a very powerful muscle relaxant. Phil used the drug for many years and it definately slowed down his speech. Added to the fact that he is a southern man, and they naturally tend to have a slow deep southern accent as they age. As for the speed he talks at, that is totally deliberate. It is a man attempting to really focus on what he says, as he has had alot of issues with media in the past.

[@texasturner2313]

Vulgar Display of Power is arguably the most groundbreaking record in the history of Metal. Pantera is easily top 5 all-time. Just think of how much they accomplished in a short period of time.

[@AJL1116]

Texas Turner they where around a long time before then.

[@rickyg8462]

Texas Turner Vulgar is awesome but I really like the production of FBD...Terry Date did a fabulous job in creating the sound of the album

[@bobbenbrown123]

I like Cowboys from Hell better TBH

[@integrity101]

15 years together isnt THAT short of a period, but yes i agree.

[@JohnnyJackson-yh9vw]

Vdop was pure pantera at their best. Songwriting guitar drums. All of it i like fbd but it it didnt have the tightness as vdop did

[@martinajakovljevic1608]

You have my full support and love, Phil. Pantera fans are with you. #onelove #IKnowYouHateHashtags

[@AakashBalajiCyborg]

This love

[@sludgedisciple]

I saw Pantera for the first time when they were on that Suicidal & Exodus tour, I want to say it was 1990? . And I ran into Gary Holt from Exodus at the bar before the show and he told me to check this band Pantera out. The rest is history. It was fucking awesome. I will never forget that shit.

[@motherofoblivion7497]

such a deep and majestic voice, I wonder if he's ever thought of becoming a voice actor. imagine his voice on void from berserk

[@Artty-fl8ul]

Hell yeah! He'd make a great Decepticon!

[@RichRobinson]

Huge sounding voice. He would make a great voice actor.

[@glendadennison1280]

Best band to ever punch a whole in the music industry! EVER MAN!!! ,😎👊 When Phil shaved his head, we did too, in High School. Long lifer follower of Pantera and PHILIP!!! 💋💗

[@elliot3200]

Can't help the feeling of getting sad everytime I see one of the bands members. Damn! it's just fucking heartbreaking how Pantera has ended so early. Not even mentioning the level of misfortune and tragedy on how Dimabag has left us...

[@austindanquer92]

Phil is the man. As far as heavy metal goes, nobody could touch them. 🤟🏼

[@Gorthaur-Bauglir]

Love how Phil talks, he is creative and extremely engaging

[@Doomzdayxx]

The band he's talking about embarrassing is Megadeth btw. They toured with Pantera in early '92, when the album was new

[@zeelong1589]

fuck i miss pantera

Still Rocking them in 2021:). Getcha pull!!

[@phunkymonkiee]

lol I'm listening to this on 1.25x speed right now. And it's better, for sure. But he still sounds like he's speaking real slow and in a foreboding manner.

[@aj101pf69]

They Killed it! The live show was fucking awesome! I got to see them several times in their prime and there will never be another band like pantera ever again.

[@GUNsandGlorey123]

When Phill says that vulgar display of power is a better record than cow boys from hell i couldnt help but think all your records are the best

[@2aja4u]

5:33 that good ol' smirk

[@Archangel112]

I don't think he's ACTUALLY slow, I think he's just very confident and likes to take his time when speaking. Atleast he's not rushing like a nervous little pussy! Also, can you imagine playing on the same show AFTER Pantera? xD That would be devastating!

[@southerndoomsday6688]

Yeah. In his interviews back in the day he used to talk a little slower and smarter like he does now. And after all the drug and alcohol abuse what can you expect? I hope he gets better with time though.

[@elspookso8414]

Phil's obviously a confident guy, but this is what years on the downers does to people. Watch the Pantera home videos. He's a shell of his former self these days.

[@violentinstincts]

no dude, that's heroin.

[@elspookso8414]

Sky Vins... No shit lol

[@didncozosksma4466]

@@elspookso8414 Nah this is probably the best Phil since those days, the heroin days of Phil was when he was a shell of his former self, that guy was a disaster.

[@mattpalmer3093]

If you making comments about Phil talking slowly your missing the depth of what he is saying. He might talk ‘slow’ but he is articulate, concise, on point and honest and what he says is well thought. And that is more than most

[@sickistartform1]

Who else feels like a BOSS, just for being a Metal head and knowing what Phil's chatting about ;) Living in the time, the era it all happened !!! Awesome ... and, YO, phil just finding the right words for such a monumental happening. This is KZbin, and you get judged for this kinda thing ... 3:03 ... spot on, Bro, spot on ... 5:20 ... recognise, learn, and understand ...

[@daveyboy8907]

Yep the good ol days before the pc culture and the pussy's that call theirselves men nowadays....

[@HeartFeltGesture]

I agree with Phil. No one will surpass Pantera. They took heavy to infinity. I came from a love affair with Metallica, and then I heard Pantera Vulgar Display and it blew my mofo mind at age 18, it was a perfect match for where I was at and I recognized the musicianship to be world class.

[@IsoSubject5]

[@JPX64Channel]

if you have asked me 15 years ago who would have died first, i would have said phil 100% sure, i mean he died and revived in 96 and was still going on with the dope after that, he survived because both his good genes and because his (late) will to stop.

Poor guy looks like he's in a daze throughout but still as funny and as compelling as ever. Good to hear him pay tribute to the masterpiece.

[@nickshale6926]

I saw Pantera open for Megadeth at the NEC Birmingham in 1992; and Phil is correct - they absolutely smoked em. Turned me into a fan that night.

[@analozada9475]

Agree...CFH was a great preamble/transition album, but the pure essence of Pantera showed perfectly with VDOP. Then, FBD was the super hardcore, refined, well crafted masterpiece that knocked my chonies off, and kicked my ass from head to toe, and the rest is history! 🙌🖤🔥🤘🔥💪🔥👊 Every time I listened to Far Beyond Driven my testosterone levels increased! Lol 💪🔥🤘🔥👊

[@ruari76]

I seen them support Megadeth in Dublin at the SFX in 1993 on the Vulgar album tour......and they destroyed Megadeth, NO CONTEST !!

[@alexkalfakis5723]

That's because Megadeth are such a boring, lifeless live band. All show-off, zero substance. Pantera had soul, energy and balls of steel, and that's what a band truly needs to put on a great live show!

[@EonSlumber]

Alex Kalfakis there is not one single megadeth song that you can mosh to. Swear.

I saw Pantera a half dozen times, the show where Sepultura and Biohazard opened for them was amazing. Pantera was the best band, but Sepultura gave them a hard run. If Pantera didnt come out with a super strong performance, it would have been Sepultura's night ... and it almost was ... they were that good. Biohazard was really good, but they were a nice break from the absolute metal assault of those 2 bands. Like a hardcore sorbet.

[@bobbenbrown123]

I saw Pantera in 1995 3 times with Sepultura, Type-O-Negative, and Prong respectively. All 3 shows let's just say the other 3 opening bands were a moot point and after thought! Pantera kicked ASS ALL 3 times!
