By far this is the best album ever created, every song comes straight form the souls of people who are putting everything they are into this, and they are hardfuckingcore, this is not just some dude grinding through 12 tracks, every one has it's own sound and grooves, perfectly made and should be a part o everyone's collection. BUY IT NOW.

Out of all their albums, this is the one that would be last on my list. It's ok, but not their best.

Nice album, surely not the heaviest(mortician, Devourment anyone?) Nonetheless a nice album, but imo not the best

What the hell happened here? This is my least favorite Pantera album by far. After the great Vulgar Display of Power comes this slab of tuneless, gurgling noise. The Fizz Picks: '25 Years' (for the anger-fropm-the-heart factor), 'Shedding Skin' (because I thought I knew how it felt once, and the lyrics are damn scary if you think about them0 'Throes of Rejection' (again, scary-as-hell lyrics AND anger from the heart) and especially 'Planet Caravan.' But when the best song is a cover ... Hmmmmm.

Matteh,I do have a life..a Great One but thanks for your concern.As for dissing bands, I'm only giving my opinion... (I guess they must be really cutting edge stuff to warrant such an intelligent response!) But thats all they are opinions..and they are about the music...nothing else!Here's some tips for you:1)Learn to use the On/Off/Eject button on your Audio equipment or change the station,amazing things will happen if you do!!

After the landmark album that was Vulgar Display of Power, it's hard to see Far Beyond Driven as anything but a disappointment. The band tries to up the ante even further on their third major-label release, and the results are mixed. Phil Anselmo only uses his 'normal" singing voice on the Black Sabbath cover that wasn't even meant for the album originally. It's all bellow and scream on the rest of the disc, except for the occasional creepy, heavy-breathing, muttered spoken parts. "Strength Beyond Strength" and "Use My THird Arm" are some of the band's fastest songs ever, with almost Slayer-like speed in places, but both also feature nasty, utterly crushing, slow breakdowns. The band's trademark grooves are found in "5 Minutes Alone," "Becoming," and "Slaughtered," but there are also a handful of songs along about the middle of the disc that are just poor. "Good Friends And A Bottle Of Pills" should have been a hidden track at the end of the disc, if anythying.

"Hard Lines, Sunken Cheeks" seems to go on forever, and "25 Years" is possibly the worst song the band ever did, post-transformation. "Throes Of Rejection" offers up some cool tribal drumbeats from Vinnie, but not a whole lot else, while "Sheddking Skin" just seems to plod along. The production has lost much of the reverb that made Vulgar Display sound so huge, and consequently, Far Beyond Driven sounds a bit claustrophobic. Not a bad album by any means, but definitely a step down from the previous two releases.
