Pantera was an American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas, in the USA.[1] They formed in 1981, but they did not have success until the 1990 release of their fifth studio album Cowboys from Hell. From 1987 to 2003 the band consisted of members Phil Anselmo (vocals), "Dimebag Darrell" Abbott (guitar), Vinnie Paul (drums), Rex Brown (bass). In 2003, the band broke up, and in the following year, Dimebag Darrell was shot and killed by Nathan Gale, during a concert of his new band Damageplan in Columbus, Ohio on 8 December, 2004.[2]
