The METAL Thread

Both these songs are about the same movie


Not sure if this counts as metal, but I love it all the same.
 
Call yourself metalheads?

Name three songs, posers.

Ticket secured to see the living half of Pantera next year.
aren't they like super Neo Nazi and banned from playing in like 5 European countries because of views against racial groups?
I believe it was because of doing a Nazi solute and shouting white power at Ozzfest 2016.
or is that twat bag no longer the lead singer of Pantera?

Only Phil and Rex still alive. Zakk Wylde and Charlie Benante make up the other two.

so the White power shouting lummux is still there then?


go down to the 2016 Dimebash incident for more context.
and feel free to go look up other sorces if you want.

I know personally I wont support them as long as he is there, to me the band died with Dimebag and anything by this crew is just an attempt to cash in on previous fame and using the platform to spread hate.
and I hate saying that because Cowboys from hell and vulgar display of power were albums that shaped who I am now.


not telling you not to go to the concert, but rather making sure you have the information needed to make your own choices.

Common knowledge already in the metal community. But doesn’t take anything away from the band I thoroughly enjoyed growing up.

Seems up in the air to me.

Anselmo has given some controversial statements about race, skin color, and culture throughout his life. At a Pantera concert in Montreal in 1995, he gave a speech expressing that "Pantera are not a racist band" and that he and his bandmates had friends "of all colors and all kinds", but that he had a problem with rap artists "pissing all over white culture". In another concert, he expressed his disgust with affirmative action, saying "**** all that Black Power bullshit".[76]

Winda Benedetti of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer accused Anselmo of mouthing the words "white power" and making Nazi salutes at Superjoint Ritual's performance at Ozzfest on July 27, 2004.[77][78] Speaking with Kerrang!, Benedetti alleged that she was seated in the second row, and saw Anselmo lean down and mouth the words towards a crowd of skinheads at the front.[78] Kerrang! was unable to reach Anselmo for comment.[78]

On January 22, 2016, an intoxicated Anselmo ended the "Dimebash" Dimebag Darrell tribute show by giving a Nazi salute and screaming the words "white power" to the crowd.[79][80][81] The incident was captured by an audience member's cell phone camera and the video was posted on YouTube. Anselmo later claimed that it was an in-jest reference to drinking white wine.[82][83]
[84]

Despite initially refusing to apologize,[83] he later retracted this statement and said it "was ugly, it was uncalled for and anybody who knows me and my true nature knows that I don't believe in any of that. I'm a thousand percent apologetic to anyone who took offense to what I said, cause you should've taken offense to what I said."[85][86]

thats pretty clear cut to me.
there was skin heads at the concert.
he gave the salute and said white power.
he appologized atmitting to wrongdoing.

his concerts are therefore a place where people who share that view will be gathering. no matter how much he appologizes it will always be a fact.
