This episode, Mike and Alex do the unthinkable and discuss all of Pantera’s albums. All of them. That’s right, even the glam stuff. No one likes talking about this part of the band’s career—and it should stay that way. We regret every second we dedicated to these sparkling abominations. Also, Pantera became a really good band later on, but you’ve probably heard that before.
Closing track: “Slaughtered” from Far Beyond Driven (1994)
