Hard to believe it was twenty years ago when Pantera first unleashed VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER. To celebrate, a special deluxe CD/DVD edition has just been unveiled at record stores, letting us all go back and experience the POWER again, along with brand new videos and a song called “Piss”, recorded for the record, but which was lost until Vinnie Paul came across it in the Pantera vault. And while they last, participating Metal Club stores have a little something special when you buy the new record–a sheet of Pantera stickers, perfect for marking your territory and letting everyone know just which band is the most kick-ass.

Together for a short but memorable time – a trio of studio albums, a classic live album, and a couple of tours – the second coming of BLACK SABBATH began in 1979 when founding members Tony Iommi, Terry“Geezer” Butler and Bill Ward were joined by Ronnie James Dio. The former singer of Elf (and later Rainbow and Dio) added his fiery, demonic howl to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group’s crushing mix of iconic riffs, gloomy grooves and doom-soaked imagery. This gatefold triple album features Dio, Iommi, Butler and Appice LIVE at Hammersmith Odeon in January 1982 during SABBATH’S tour for The Mob Rules.  Now available for the first time on LIMITED EDITION NUMBERED vinyl, the concert spotlights SABBATH as they storm through 14 of the Dio-era’s best including, “Neon Knights”, “Heaven And Hell”, “Children Of The Sea” and “Country Girl.” The band also performs several pre-Dio classics [Read More]
