LOS ANGELES – Pantera found its growl and groove on COWBOYS FROM HELL, a landmark album whose bone-powdering intensity, razor-sharp riffing and pummeling rhythmic assault represented a turning point in modern metal when it was released in 1990. More than just Pantera’s major label debut, many consider this album to be the official debut of the Pantera lineup with singer Philip Anselmo, guitarist “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott, his brother, drummer Vinnie Paul and bassist Rex Brown.

To celebrate the 20-year anniversary of COWBOYS FROM HELL, Rhino rounds up a three-disc Ultimate Edition, a three-disc Deluxe Edition, and a two-disc Expanded Edition. All three editions include a newly remastered version of the original album along with unreleased and rare live performances from the “Cowboys From Hell” Tour.

“’The Will To Survive’ is a great track. With so many killer songs, it was hard to pick and choose the ones that should make our major label debut,” says Paul. “After hearing it for the first time in about 20 years, its a pretty stellar performance and I am definitely proud that it will see the light of day for all the die hard Pantera fans around the world! It shows the true musical diversity of the band at that time!”

Along with the remastered version of COWBOYS FROM HELL, all three sets include a disc of live music recorded during the tour for the album. It begins with seven unreleased performances from Pantera’s September 15, 1990 appearance at the Foundations Forum metal convention in California, a show recorded for radio broadcast but never released commercially. The remainder of the disc contains the five-song EP Alive And Hostile, a collection of performances recorded in 1991 at the Monsters of Rock festival in Moscow that was previously available only in Australia as part of a 1994 boxed set.

After being turned down “twenty-eight times by every major label on the face of the earth,” ATCO Records A&R rep Mark Ross saw the band when Hurricane Hugo stranded him in Texas. The rest, as they say, is history, including another seven years and over a million miles of touring for COWBOYS to be certified Platinum (one million album sales) by the RIAA.

The album’s liner notes include essays by each of the band’s surviving members, producer Terry Date, and the aforementioned Ross. Recalling the first time he saw Pantera, Ross writes, “By the end of the first song, my jaw was on the floor. The sonic power of it all—the attitude and the musicianship—blew me away. Basically, you had to be an idiot to not think they’re amazing. I mean, how could you see these guys and not think, Holy shit!?”

• Dee,
  I love listening to you on the HOH. I would love to hear anything by Dokken. I have been seriously been going out of my mind going to family functions and being driven to almost drinking myself into the grave listening to old country music. I would love to be able to let loose and bang my head in a good way to some awesome ‘banger music. I totally agree with you that “If it ain’t metal it’s crap”!!
  Thanks,
  –Dreama in Paris, IL, listening to 105.5 The River

• Dee,
  “I Am (I’m Me) became my favorite song when I was in high school and was one of the outcasts in my class. I had long hair, no tolerance for crap, a short temper and a radio that didn’t get loud enough to do this song justice. When I quit caring how other people thought I should live my life, life got a lot easier to deal with. Now, I’m successful in my line of work, a lot of people look up to me, and I still listen to the same music I loved in my younger days. I met you during a Bikers for Babies run in Huntsville a couple years back and it was great to meet one of the idols of my youth. Could you play “I Am (I’m Me)” for me and all the other headbangers out here?
  Ride for life, rock for fun!
  –Mike in Huntsville, AL, listening to 106.1 WTAK
