Rex Brown recently looked back at Joe Giron’s photo archive and called him the unofficial fifth member of Pantera. If you’ve seen the shots from A Vulgar Display of Pantera, you know exactly why. The dude was there for everything—from the spandex-clad Texas club days when Dimebag was still going by "Diamond," to the absolute demolition derby of the Reinventing the Steel tour. Phil Anselmo said looking at the early 90s shots just reminds him they were waiting for the camera to click so they could hit "Beer:30." Which era of Pantera do you think looked the most purely unhinged? Are you taking the hungry Cowboys From Hell days, or the peak chaos around Far Beyond Driven?
The performance is really awesome!!

Everyone talks about the massive 90s comeback or the Armageddon soundtrack, but early 70s Aerosmith out of Boston was entirely different. They were gritty, unpolished, and arguably the most dangerous rock band in America at the time. Look at any live shot from the 'Toys in the Attic' or 'Rocks' era—it's pure chaos. Are we in agreement that 1975-1976 was their absolute creative peak, or does someone want to make a serious argument for the late 80s 'Pump' era?
Everyone's going to see SOAD and Korn. Here are 5 acts lower on the poster that could be the highlight of your day: 1. Acid Bath — This is their reunion after 28 YEARS. They broke up in 1997 after bassist Audie Pitre was killed by a drunk driver. If you're into sludge metal, this might be the most important set of the entire festival. Don't sleep on this. 2. Knocked Loose — Arguably the hottest heavy band on the planet right now. Their live show is a wrecking ball. Get there early if you want to survive the pit. 3. Glassjaw — Post-hardcore legends who never got the mainstream recognition they deserved. If you know, you know. 4. Carpenter Brut — Synthwave/darkwave that sounds like a John Carpenter movie came to life. Completely different energy from everything else on the lineup — in the best way. 5. Poison the Well — Early 2000s post-hardcore that influenced half the bands on this lineup. A perfect "I was there" moment. Who else are you adding to this list? Drop your underrated picks
