To do an extreme metal record is something that is well within my capacity as a musician to write stuff out of the box, write stuff that’s probably more extreme than the band I’m in at the present time, and it’s something that needs to come out of me one way or another. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
I am the type that cannot stay put in living in the past and solely in the past. It’s not healthy and it doesn’t feel right. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
There has got to be a lot of unreleased video out there, live footage and whatnot. There’s always going to be something extra for the Pantera fan. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
I tried to take heavy metal… and balled it up and chopped it in half and really tried to create a new form of energy. I really tried to re-shape extreme music as I see it through my eyes. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
There’s always something going on, but thank goodness these days it’s with a clear head, which helps me massively. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
I wasn’t that wild about that. I told them basically if they were really going to want to bring back heavy metal to a program on MTV, then they are really going to have to get in touch with what real heavy metal is. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
I’ve always said that Pantera fans were the best in the world, and I truly meant that, and I still mean it. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
Singing and playing have always gone hand-in-hand with me. I love ’em both equally. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
I think Pantera is a type of band that has been documented very, very well over the years. With the past re-releases, we were fortunate enough to have old demos and stuff that never really saw the light of day. But Pantera was not the type of band to waste many riffs or many parts or songs. Phil Anselmo Read Quote
