Dimebag loved the BROWN sound.

[Nitro Express]

The insanity continues...

[Dave's Bitch]

Every time I talked to him he had a LOSER beer in his LOSER hands.

Guys like this LOSER dont care about their tone, he hid behind his distortion to cloak a great lack of dexterity and choked notes.

Kids didn't grow up admiring him the way they did EVH or Angus. They admired him like the little kids point fingers of admiration at the 30 clowns piling out of a VW Beetle "look at that, Gramma!"

He out-did himself on a yearly basis how gross he could dress and look, because that's how he was. He didn't give a shit about anything, not even his sound.. and the only reason he went with Krank was they smoked pot together and supported similar views on marijuana.

You know, you are a bit of an asshole gar...

[GAR]

As usual hit "submit reply" INSERT FOOT much like every time you open your mouth, one imagines....

What a mess. WHY are you proving my point.. the one about the "30 clowns piling out of a VW" one - this guys' a spectacle and not in a positive way.

Why do you make my position easier? You could just as well point out "well, I like his playing up till about 3:20" or something" and he does indeed have a few technical rffs not entirely based on patterns.

There's all kinds of negative rolemodel guitarplayers who love the Brownsound, Ed influenced a vast range of players and YOU know I have a great difference of opinion on what's going on here in the video. You're just provocating for the sake of it BECAUSE you think he's some stellar thing that he wasn't.

All performing bands seek to entertain, but not all entertaining acts can be called "artists."

He lived a inadmirable degenerate's lifestyle not worthy of emulation by the teens who today find him amusing, and can't consider Dimebag Darrel in that realm of "artist."

Is that better? How does that work for you.. I can't put his squandered life in a better light than that.

[jhale667]

So, "takes one to know one" is your point?

That means SO much coming from someone who is an "inadmirable degenerate" internet troll and jealous hater himself...

And since his playing basically redefined the genre, I think we can safely call him an "artist" your obvious jealous contempt notwithstanding.

I think he suffered from depression honestly. I wanted to like him like one would want to like any new person you meet, but he was just this sad character that used humor booze and drugs to offset that "whatever" that he had.

There's too many dark people around in the band world who have this dark moody energy-bullshit in their lives.

That's why you see alot of classically-trained kids move on to become architects, lawyers and engineers instead of pressing onward with bands after college - because they can't take their disciplined experience and apply it to a group lacking discipline. Doesn't mesh, if it did we'd have better music, better bands and probably the reason why fewer Americans make the greats list in classic rock compared to the Brits.

[jhale667]

You're a regular PSYCHO-anal-ist.

Beginning to agree with Nitro...

What "genre" are you talking about - "hair metal"? Sure, they helped push pop metal more towards rhythm-based grunge if that's what you mean, and for the worse IMO.

I am not "jealous" of Pantera, my girlfriend at the time had a tape so I gave it a listen.. I'm not ignorant, but Im not jealous either.

- didn't like 'em.
- didn't follow 'em.
- didn't listen to 'em.
- couldn't see the point in 'em.
- didn't like the people that liked, followed, listened or saw the point in 'em either.

Pantera happened between the pop melodic rock stage and the grunge era, a 2 year window of success, why would I hate them for that?

[GAR]

Beginning to agree with Nitro...

Anyone who met Darrel I've talked to says the same thing, "yeah sweet guy but .."


This Love Lyrics
Artist(Band):Pantera

If ever words were spoken painful and untrue
I said I loved but I lied
In my life all I wanted
Was the keeping of someone like you
As it turns out deeper within me
Love was twisted and pointed at you

Never ending pain, quickly ending life --

(Chorus)

You keep this love, thing, love, child, love, toy
You keep this love, fist, love, scar, love, break
You keep this love, love, love
You keep this love, love, love
You keep this love,

I'd been the tempting one, stole her from herself
This gift in pain, her pain was life
And sometimes I feel so sorry
I regret this the hurting of you but you make me so unhappy
I'd take my life and leave love with you

I'd kill myself for you, I'd kill you for myself --

(Chorus)

No more head trips

(Chorus)

So - you think it's a normal affair writing murder-suicide music?

Like there's nothing wrong with that, totally acceptable and appropriate. Something youd want to be a part of?



Like suppose Dime's brother calls you up and goes "Pantera reforming, will you fill in for Darryl" you'd do it..

[jhale667]

Depends...are their checks going to clear?



Keep your lyrical critiques in the music forum, dumbass.

[jhale667]

Back on fucking topic - has anyone tried the Krank amps Dime had started using prior to his untimely passing?
