Pantera vs. Slayer

[BlueBalls]

Pantera are my favourite band of all time. So its them for me.

Slayer are a great band.

 

[L3ggy]

Neither.

 

[Legzman]

Pantera rules slayer sucks

well damn! I wouldn't go that far, but ok!

 

[dvda74]

I went with Pantera. Dimebag's guitar work alone puts them on top.

 

[nothingandless]

i go with Pantera. i like slayer, but they took time for me to like. i liked Pantera the 1st time i heard them. both are good, though.

listen to this band: converge. you metalheads.

 

[L3ggy]

I've got to admit Dimebag is a pretty good guitarist, but he is no Steve Vai or Robert Johnson.

 

[Fonzarelli]

Pantera has 2 great albums and 1 that I used to listen for a while back then, but haven`t really even thought about much since (this being the Far Beyond Driven ofcourse). The rest of their stuff never meant much to me.

Slayer sucks...big time. That shouting really annoys me and their lyrics are just childish - even in heavy metal terms. And hey, this coming from a guy who lists Venom among his favorite bands :1orglaugh
Ok, I never paid much attention to them, but from the little I did, I got an impression that they were just some wanna-be-tough-guy posers without much sense of humour....

Totally different styles to bro!

Pantera rules but slayer aint no joke. dime bag may he rest in peace.

I don't know much about Slayer at all. But I don't think they could having that compares to Vulgar Display of Power.

 

[Nash]

Pantera for me.
Anyone into Vinnie Paul's "HellYeah"?
I saw them live and met them last year at an autograph session.
Vinnie was drunk off his ass,signing some peoples items twice.

 

[Chrism86354]

i like slayer a lot but dimebags guitar playing was just ridiculous!

 

[BlueBalls]

Although I perfer Pantera, those of you who havnt heard Slayer's Rain in Blood album should do so asap. Ranks up there with Vulgar Display of Power maybe even surpasses it. For power and speed which is what a good thrash album should be about.

I know that, but both of them plays the guitar.

 

[cobelo]

I like both, but I choose Pantera, for two reasons:

1: Their "production-sound" whith triggered-like bass drums, V eq´ed guitars and low pitched but high toned bass has been the standard in metal music for more then 10 years.

2: Slayer made a bunch of legendary songs, and some of them are among my favourites of all time, but I think there is a harder composition work by Pantera.

SLAYER! Pantera are great to listen to all the time but sometimes you just need a Slayer moment. Then they're REALLY awesome, like when you itch a scratch just right.

I need that Slayer moment at least once a day.
