Pantera: how an ex-glam band from Texas redefined metal
The first time Scott Ian heard Pantera’s Cowboys From Hell back in , he didn’t know what it was. Standing in the crowd at a Living Colour gig at LA’s Universal Amphitheatre, waiting for the headliners to come on, the Anthrax guitarist heard the song’s now-familiar juddering intro coming over the PA.
“It immediately caught my ear because it sounded like it was on a loop or the CD was skipping,” he recalls.
“Then that riff kicks in with the drums and I’m listening to this thing going, ‘What the fuck is this? This is really heavy!’ It was amazing.

I had no idea who it was. In the next couple of days, I heard it on KNAC Radio in Los Angeles and they announced it as Pantera from Texas with Cowboys From Hell. I was like, ‘Oh my god!’”
Scott Ian and Pantera had been friends for several years when the Texan band released their breakthrough album.
