Revolver Teams With Pantera for Exclusive Vinyl Variants of Classic Albums

The Texas juggernaut comprised of singer Philip Anselmo, guitarist Dimebag Darrell, bassist Rex Brown and drummer Vinnie Paul — are one of the greatest metal bands of all time, hands down. Revolver has teamed with the trailblazing group for new, exclusive colored vinyl editions of the band’s five classic albums: Cowboys From Hell on “marbled white and whiskey brown,” Vulgar Display of Power on “marbled white and true metal gray,” Far Beyond Driven on “marbled white and stronger than blue,” The Great Southern Trendkill on “marbled white and sandblasted orange,” and Reinventing the Steel on “marbled white and southern flames yellow.”

Revolver: Rex Brown on Pantera’s ‘Reinventing the Steel’: “It’s a Great Last Performance”
