Album Notes
OFFICIAL LIVE: 101 PROOF contains live versions of Pantera hits as well as two new studio tracks.Pantera: Philip Anselmo (vocals); Dimebag Darrell (guitar); Rex Brown (bass); Vinnie Paul (drums).Engineers: Aaron "Wires" Barnes, Vinnie Paul."Cemetery Gates" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.After seven long years of almost non-stop touring, Pantera personally chose these 16 songs as the creme de la creme, the definitive live Pantera experience. All well and good, we can only hope the folks up front had kneepads and mouthpieces, because this is not for the faint of heart. This is incendiary thrash metal; full-speed-ahead sonic mayhem, from the churning grunge of "Becoming" to the jackhammer assault of "Hostile." "New Level," the disc's opener, pretty much defines the experience here; vocals are shouted rather than sung, drums are attacked with fury and vengeance, guitars scream and churn and ring out like the very bells of Hades...well, you get the idea. There are two new songs here as well, which the band recorded during a 12-day break in their hectic tour schedule.

Editorial Reviews
...The heavy tunes have the stealth of hardcore techno and the skull-imploding impact of a collapsing tower block. The very heavy tunes sound like a jumbo jet crashing into your house. Hairy balled maximum security metal doesn't get any more appallingly powerful than this...
NME

3 Stars (out of 5) - ...Militaristic beats, jagged riffs and tortured guitar squalls are intertwined with Phil Anselmo's rabid-drill-sergeant vocals....even the slowest tracks broil with tightfisted fury...

A raw live album full of Pantera's power!

Created: 22/09/07
Man, I wish they would release a Reinventing The Steel home video or a Pantera concert video.

Anyways, This is an excellent live album. The sound is really raw but it still sounds really clear and you can hear all of the instruments really well. (Drums,guitar,bass, and of course Phil's vokills.)
The only one complaint I have is that their is no Mouth For War!!!! WTF??!!!
Now that that is out of the way, the rest of the tracklisting is pretty awesome. I mean, yeah, their is always a few tracks that are missing from live albums but for the setlist that is on hear, it's actually pretty complete.
Phil's outspoken persona is evident on here but it actually kind of works.

All of the musicians are in top form and their live playing is just as good if not better than on the studio albums. Vinnie has always been one of my favorite drummers and his live drumming on here matches the cds perfectly. Rex holds together the bottom end with his thumping, deep bass lines that go prefectly with the music. And onto the master guitar player, you've gotta hear how he pulls off his solos and riffs live. Amazing and Breath-taking is one of the only ways to describe his performance.

I personally love live cds and this Pantera live cd just makes me want more live Pantera! Highly recommended!!!

Decent live cd

Created: 23/09/09
This is a decent cd. I love pantera but i am not crazy about this particular cd. It is just not the same as the studio versions. This live version gets almost annoying at times. I hate to say that about my favorite band, but its true.

PANTERA- GREATEST BAND EVER!!!!

Created: 30/06/09
Pantera has always been there for me. To me, it's more than music- it's a lifestyle. Pantera is the greatest band ever! When Dimebag passed, I cried as if I'd lost a brother, because I did. I never spoke a word to the man, but, in my heart and in my mind, I feel like we've knowed each other forever! LONG LIVE PANTERA AND LONG LIVE DIMEBAG DARELL ABBOTT!!!!!!!!!!

Official Live: 101 Proof

This is, as it states on the album cover, Pure against the grain American Heavy Metal. Every song performed has already been hailed as headbanging history, and live it's even more fast paced and over all heavier. And the two new recorded songs are a terrific added bonus.
