here welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top 10 pen terror songs for this list
we’ve chosen our entries based on a
combination of the artists fan favorites
and their most commercially successful
songs
you’ve also tried to choose the tracks
that are most associated with and define
the band with that set they’re ready to
raise your fists in a Vulgar Display of
power
number ten this love
damn true
he’s not our list is a fan favorite
palette based on what a frontman Phil
abs Elmo’s failed relationships this
love retains the emotional depth that
comes with heartache while providing a
heavier edge in the chorus the constant
shifting from melodic to frantic guitar
riffs captures the idea that not all
relationships and happily and that they
can quickly turn
the song is one of Pantera’s most
popular tracks charting in the Billboard
Hot 100 top 10
watch it bow number nine King hostile
the song is pure aggression with a
hateful look at the world and the people
in it
this track is essentially a vicious
anthem that condemns those who have used
their authority and power be they
political figures religious leaders or
even parents Phil Anselmo spoke holes
are blunt in their meeting yet pointing
to their delivery creating a song that
will get fists pumping protest song to
end all protest songs and tear a
coarsely gets their message out in this
song also you can forget that kick-ass
guitar solo
number eight hallo
this is a power ballad that shows that
Pantera isn’t all about screaming
reminiscent of Metallica’s one
the song delves into the minds of the
band members as they watch a friend of
theirs fall into a comatose state
dealing with emotions such as
helplessness despair and the absence of
hope the song is powerful in its
approach to how those that are left
behind suffer just as much as those who
are now gone
it’s Elmo’s vocals are so emotional they
can bring almost anyone to tears and the
opening guitar if you somber enough to
tell its own story
and a smart call domination 4:7
domination undergoing a major change on
Cowboys from Hell and Tara made the leap
from glam metal to groove metal and
became a groundbreaking act domination
the sixth track from this album is seen
as a classic in the eyes of fans as the
song does what it promises and dominates
with killer guitar work and exceptional
vocals by Anselmo
despite not being released as a single
the potent lyrics and stellar riffs both
get a chance to shine to create a very
fan favorite track
number six five minutes alone this just
goes to show that inspiration can come
from absolutely anywhere taking off the
band’s chart-topping seventh album this
song was inspired by a heckler
out-of-hand Tara gig
from below
after showing him up the hecklers father
wanted to have five minutes alone with
lead singer Phil Anselmo to show him
who’s the boss
Elmo decided to stick it to him by
writing a song about the incident the
results was a fan paper track that’s
heavy in all the right ways
number five I’m broken
the song contains one of the most famous
riffs in all of metal and came from a
soundcheck the late great Dimebag
Darrell stated that while practicing
random riffs with the rest of the band
with a hangover no less the basis of
this song was born track has made all
the more appointment by Anselmo’s
admitting that the lyrics were a rare
sign of vulnerability to his severe back
problems
a heavy-metal testament to living with
pain it’s no wonder it made our list
number four mouth for war
it was the first Pantera track to ever
chart the first single off their
incredibly successful sixth album and in
the minds of fans it is one of the best
songs period
Oh
the band are no strangers to the concept
of anger and hate and while both are
evident in the song itself the subject
matter is twisted into something far
more positive
Phil Anselmo claimed that the song was
about taking all that negative energy
and channeling it into something
positive what we got was an awesome
track that’s become a Pantera signature
number three cemetery gates the longest
song that the band has ever recorded and
as a result we’re treated to a seven
minute power ballad that demonstrates
just how good these guys are
Oh
lyrics describe thoughts of following a
lover into the afterlife which was
inspired by a real-life friend event
Elmo
with Dimebag Darrell producing inspiring
guitar solos that drift between melodic
and heavy Phil Anselmo lets loose vocals
that are made to tear at your
heartstrings while still making you want
to rock out
number two Wow arguably the most well
known Pantera song walk shows the band
doing what they do best taking their
anger out on the world around them and
turning it into a piece of rock history
it’s easy to understand why the song
contains so much animosity as Phil
Anselmo explains that the idea came
after friends started to treat the band
differently following the success of
cowboys from hell
this track basically tells them to shove
it and walk away in typical Pantera
style before our number one pick walks
its way to the top here are a few
honorable mentions
quiet
Oh
hey girlfriend
number one Cowboys from Hell
this was the song that started it all it
brought Pantera out of Texas and right
into the heavy-metal Hall of Fame
missing the band’s signature power group
style with rash metal the track is a
call to the world to announce their
arrival almost making fun of the fact
that their home state isn’t well known
for producing successful metal bands
I thought they’d be the one to beat all
the odds as this song proves they didn’t
just beat the odds they tore them down
