“Dude, a big roadrunner just came through my backyard and jumped over at 15-foot fence.” That’s former Pantera bassist Rex Brown speaking with Revolver from his new place in New Mexico. The occasion is the 20th anniversary of Reinventing the Steel, which was released in March 2000. Co-produced by drummer Vinnie Paul and guitarist Dimebag Darrell, the album proved to be Pantera’s last — the band split up in 2003 after a period of unfortunate and well-publicized acrimony between Dimebag and vocalist Philip Anselmo.

Check out this amazing Rex Brown guitar. Yes – We know he was the bass player for Pantera – so no need to state the obvious. He’s playing guitar as well now.

“[Paul] was the original for his generation, a generation that’s still going,” writes Brown in a heartfelt tribute to late drummer.

2017 highlight: Brown will always be best known for his pummeling bass work with metal icons Pantera, but he deserves credit for stepping from the shadows of that band to pick up a six string guitar and microphone to front his new solo band. His new album Smoke On This is a real, gritty and rocking affair.

Via Loudwire: After toiling in several post-Pantera projects, Rex Brown stepped up to the mic (and guitar) and delivered a stellar solo debut. While ‘Smoke on This’ may not be reminiscent of Pantera, the musician does cop the attitude of that band while delivering a bluesy, rock-leaning gem. Highlights include the Zeppelin-esque “Crossing Lines,” the sludgy “Buried Alive” and the more psychedelic “Get Yourself Alright.” Brown’s ‘Smoke on This’ feels just as at home on a gin joint jukebox as it would ripping through your headphones.
