Damageplan

[sixxswine]

I was watching HBB last night & saw the video for their new record.
Damageplan, they sound like an updated version of Pantera, less abrassive than Trendkill era stuff. Did anyone see the show? What did you think of the track?

I heard a couple clips a while back.. I didn't like what I heard, but that may change.

 

[SLAYER85]

i missed them on HBB, sure they will show it next week.

 

[sixxswine]

I'm sold on this band. I can't wait to hear the record!

 

[Mithrondil]

To be honest, I thought it blew compared to Phil's projects.. Dime and Vinny kick ass, but this band doesnt.

I beg to differ, Phil is "burnt out" & is grasping at straws. While his latest SJR disc is a step in the right direction, he's a thing of the past.

I think they're pretty good but not as good as Pantera though. They sound like Pantera but not as aggressive. I love Pantera's Far Beyond Driven and Reinventhing The Steel, these are one of my favourite metal albums of all time.

I've read Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Jerry Cantrell are going to appear as guests on their new album.

I can't believe Anselmo thinks so highly of himself and Superjoint Ritual. He's saying that they're bringing a heavy metal/hardcore revolution . My ass, Superjoint Ritual just suck.

 

[SLAYER85]

id ont like how phil goes around tootin his horn all the time, and a lot of the time i dont agree with him, but man o man i love some superjoint ritual.

 

[sixxswine]

Phil is simply an ass. And I like what Murai said, they do have a Pantera vibe to them & you're right, they aren't as abrassive as the Reinventing & Far Beyond & Trendkill records. I was more of a fan of Cowboys & Vulgar, just enough aggression to keep you interested & not lose you. That's just me.

 

[Mithrondil]

I didn't think it sounded that much like Pantera... I didn't hear much, but it didn't remind me of anything Pantera did ???

 

[baldyboy]

havnt heard the damage plan stuff,but as muso's ,vinnie and darryl kick ass.thats not to say that anything they do will be great,its just that its unlikely not to be good,if you see what i mean.
phil is another matter.i loved cowboys,hell we still play the title track at rehersal sometimes,and vulger was by far and a way thier best album for me,but recently i've read interviews with him and i've heard some of that superjoint stuff and it seems like he's really losing the plot.still a great singer,but losing the plot.

I heard a little clip of the Damage Plan osng and it seemed pretty cool. I'll have to hear more of them to really be a judge. Yeah, you're right, they're definitely not like Pantera used to be. I haven't heard SJR and maybe I'm glad and maybe I'm not. I'll have to download some since I'm a rather open-minded person.

 

[MURAI]

I think Cowboys From Hell is extremely overrated and did you know that they ripped off Exhorder on that eh. I do like some songs in there like Cemetary Gates and Domination though. Vulgar Display of Power is an awesome album. Songs like A New Level (got to love that solo), Walk (just straightforward goodness) and Hollow made it worth it.

Damageplan will host HBB this weekend! How about that shit?!
check out the cover for the record...

awesome, ill be watching it. i wanna see them live, even if the music isnet up to par w/ pantera, id still like to be able to say ive seen dime and vinnie in concert, cause they just dominate the guitar and drums.

 

[Psychonaut]

I haven't heard it yet. I liked Pantera quite a bit a few years ago but haven't dug them out in recent times. I'll watch or record HBB just to see what they're like. You guys got me curious now.

 

[sixxswine]

Do not forget Damageplan will be on HBB tonight(1.17.04). A good chance to hear something from the band....

 

[sixxswine]

My mistake. Damageplan will be on HBB next week...
I hang my head in shame.

 

[Psychonaut]

Good because I forgot to set the Tivo up.

 

[schindlers_fist]

I like Superjoint Ritual more, they have more of a punk metal meets doom thing going.

I like that.


Pantera way ripped off Exhorder, but their still pretty good.
