Cowboys From Hell - The Pantera Story ┃ Documentary

On July 24, 1990, Pantera released their 5th studio album, Cowboys From Hell. An album that is widely regarded as one of the most influential Metal records of the early 90s. It’s considered to be the band’s breakthrough album and it signified a dramatic transition in their career. They had gone from an all out Van Halen loving Hair Metal 4 piece, to an innovative grove metal thrash band. Cowboys from Hell would be their first major label release and would see them touring with Judas Priest, as well as playing the iconic Monsters Of Rock Festival to a crowd of over 500,000 people. #Pantera #CowboysFromHell The early 90s Pantera sound truly was something remarkable but it had some stiff competition to contend with. Megadeth were riding high with Rust In Peace, Judas Priest had unleashed Painkiller and Alice In Chains were pioneering the new Seattle Sound movement known as Grunge, with their debut LP, Facelift. Pantera though had something very unique about them in the form of two passionate musical loving brothers, Vincent Paul Abbott and Darrell Lance Abbott. Both born in Texas in the 1960s, the pair would be born into a world of music. And although the real Pantera journey began in 1990 with the release of Cowboys From Hell, their journey to becoming Pantera started long before they were even born with their Father, Jerry Abbott. Jerry Abbott was an American country music singer, sound engineer, and record producer. This is the man that would not only encourage his two young sons, Vinnie and Darrell, to become musicians, he would also produce Pantera’s first 4 albums. He was also becoming a teenager in the mid 50s when Elvis Presley was about to change music forever with the birth of Rock and Roll. It seemed that fate had only one thing in store for the Abbott brothers and they would be at the forefront of Heavy Metal for decades to come. Along with the classic line-up that included Rex Brown and Phil Anselmo, they would influence Metal Music in a way that will never be witnessed again. A one of a kind band, with a one of a kind sound, this is Cowboys From Hell, The story of Pantera. ⚡OFFICIAL BAND MERCH⚡ ⚡SUPPORT ME ON PATREON⚡ GEAR I USE TO CREATE THESE DOCUMENTARIES ⚡Behringer B-2 PRO Condenser Mic: ⚡Behringer U-Phoria UMC204HD: ⚡Behringer Compressor (MDX4600 V2): ⚡Behringer MIC2200 V2: ⚡Canon EOS M50: ⚡Samyang MF 24mm T1.5 VDSLR MK2: ⚡Swissonic ASM7 Monitors: ⚡Teleprompter-PAD iLight PRO 13’: ⚡GVM LED Video Lighting Kit: ⚡Sennheiser MKE 600 Shotgun Mic: VIDEO EDITING AND AUDIO SEQUENCING (Voice overs): ⚡CUBASE ELEMENTS ⚡Adobe Premiere Pro ⚡Adobe Photoshop ⚡ Or make a one-off donation via PayPal ⚡
