I actually owned "Metal Magic". Trust me. It was garbage, and as popular as "Cowboys From Hell" was, it's overrated, IMO. I don't like it as much because of the operatic vocals, and poor production value.
That said, "Suicide Note Pt. 2" is one of the heaviest songs ever written, IMO.
I can never really decide on my favourite album by them, simply because the three major ones (Cowboys, Driven and Vulgar) all had a handful of great songs and few that let the album down.
Cowboys had...Cowboys and Cemetary Gates, Driven had I'm Broken and 5 Minutes Alone, Vulgar had Mouth for War and Walk. I think it usually comes down toe Vulgar Display of Power for me. Just because I think the opening riffs to Mouth for War are amazing, as is the solo.

Ok, no Phil Anslemo Pantera album is shit 😛
Metal Magic was shit.
Cowboys from Hell is a great album, and came under scrutiny by some because of the spectacularly similar sound to the band Exhorder. When Vulgar Display of Power was released in 1992, it had a much more raw and visceral sound to it, and sounded nothing like Exhorder. I listen to Pantera almost everyday still, seiing as how they were one of the bands that got me in to the music I so love today. My favorites are Slaughtered, Use my 3rd Arm, Attack the Radical, Primal Concrete Sledge, Suicide Note 1 and 2, and the ever clasic Walk.
Originally posted by Swe_BumYou mean CFH and Vulgar Display Of Power? Yeah those along with Far Beyond Driven are the best, it's too bad Vinnie and Phil probably won't become friends ever again.
I think the First Two ("New" pantera) are best
Although I don't think Phil would fit as a vocalist considering his voice is no longer what it used to be, at least not for Pantera would his current voice work.

Pantera was the frikin' metal gods! Without them metal wouldn't be the same as it is today, they took metal to a new level FTW.
