Dimebag Darrell – August 2012 Classic Rock Birthdays
Former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde is willing to replace Dimebag Darrell should Pantera reform. In an interview promoting his book, 'Bringing Metal to the Children: The Complete Berzerker's Guide to World Tour Domination,' Wylde was asked the question that has been floating around the metal world for the past few months.
Philip Anselmo spoke about the possibility of a Pantera reunion with Zakk Wylde filling in for the late great Dimebag Darrell, and... it looks like a lot of counseling is going to be required first.
Since lost tracks always seem to surface just before a band is ready for a reissue or a "special edition remaster," they're often rightly looked upon with suspicion. But Pantera proves sometimes the reason a song doesn't make an album is that it simply didn't play nicely with the other tracks.
Fans of former Pantera frontman Phil Anselmo may be surprised to hear that the hard-core metal frontman used to rock out to the likes of the Beatles and Peter Frampton.
