All, that is, except those of the legion of Pantera fans who have followed the band from Dallas bars to the world's arenas.

Three of their albums -- Cowboys From Hell, Vulgar Display Of Power and Far Beyond Driven -- have sold over six million albums worldwide. These numbers, however, don't begin to tell the story that will matter in the long run, the story that matters to their millions of fans. The real story is in the power of Pantera's music -- savage, searing, soulful rock 'n' roll that stands unchallenged in its intensity. With a fiercely independent attitude, they have accomplished their success with little support from radio or MTV and without catering to the momentary whims of "the industry." Immune to the tyranny of trend, they have become the outspoken standard-bearers of musical integrity, D.I.Y. spirit, and rebelliousness. Philip Anselmo (vocals), Dimebag Darrell (guitars) Vinnie Paul (drums) and Rex (bass) have taken their uncompromising music straight to the core of hard rock fans who demand that if a band talks the talk, they damn well better walk the walk.
