The ongoing tension lasted for another seven years, during which only one studio album, Reinventing the Steel (2000), was recorded. These tensions resulted in the recording sessions for The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) being held separately. Tensions began to surface among the band members when Anselmo became addicted to heroin in 1995 he almost died from an overdose in 1996. Far Beyond Driven (1994) debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Their fifth album, 1990's Cowboys from Hell, popularized the groove metal genre, while its 1992 follow-up Vulgar Display of Power achieved an even heavier sound. They secured a record deal with major label Atco the following year. Looking for a new and heavier sound, Pantera hired Anselmo in 1987 and released Power Metal in 1988. Having started as a glam metal band, Pantera released three albums in the mid-1980s with lead vocalist Terry Glaze ( Metal Magic, Projects in the Jungle, and I Am the Night) with little success. Pantera is regarded as one of the most successful and influential bands in heavy metal history, having sold around 20 million records worldwide and having received four Grammy nominations. In addition to their development and popularization of the groove metal subgenre, Pantera is credited (along with others, such as Testament, Sepultura, and Machine Head) for being part of the second wave of thrash metal scene from the late 1980s to early-to-mid 1990s. The group's best-known lineup consisted of the Abbott brothers (drummer Vinnie Paul and guitarist Dimebag Darrell), along with vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Rex Brown. Pantera ( / p æ n ˈ t ɛr ə/) was an American heavy metal band from Arlington, Texas, formed in 1981.
