Cowboys from Hell is dull. Their attempt at thrash that only succeeds about half the time (though the title track and "Cemetary Gates" are phenomenal. Vulgar Display of Power is better, but I still only care some of the time. I've never listened to any of their albums past Far Beyond Driven, so I can't know, but right now it's the only Pantera album I care about. It's just so much heavier and more pissed off than anything they'd done before. I think all the success they'd had kind of gave them the confidence to just go for the jugular like they might not have before. The improved song consistency doesn't hurt either. And even if it's not quite the best song on the album "25 Years" will always have a piece of my heart for expressing the feelings toward a father that I've always had bottled inside. Can't listen to that song without getting emotional.

Pantera one of the best metal bands ever and can't wait until they pop up in my journal and Far Beyond Driven is a great album btw.
