Title: Pantera – Power Metal
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1988, Metal, Heavy Metal, Arlington, TX
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

1. Band Drama: First album with Phil Anselmo after the Terry Glaze era—an early lineup pivot that reset the band’s trajectory.

2. Media Narrative: Pantera later treated the glam-era catalog as “pre-history,” and it stayed hard to access officially, turning it into collector lore.

3. Scene Ecology: Built their name by grinding the Texas club circuit in the ’80s—local shows, flyers, and word-of-mouth before national attention.
