— Pantera (@Pantera) February 5, 2026Pantera started as a glam metal band in 1981 when it was founded by metal music duo and brothers Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul, with bassist Rex Brown joining a year later. The band transitioned into heavier metal in the late '80s after recruiting vocalist Phil Anselmo in 1986 and releasing their album Power Metal (1988). Though Pantera enjoyed several years of success and evolution over the span of their time together, they also faced many moments of tragedy, including growing tensions surrounding Anselmo's drug abuse at the time which resulted in the band breaking up in 2003. Dimebag Darrell, who formed the band Damageplan with his brother after the breakup, was unfortunately shot and killed during a live performance in 2004. Vinnie Paul died too in 2018 from heart failure, leaving Anselmo and Brown to be the last surviving members of Pantera's best-known lineup. Brown and Anselmo reunited in 2023 to tour as Pantera once again, bringing along musicians Zakk Wylde and Charlie Benante into the new lineup.
