First, a moment of silence for the upcoming, five-year anniversary of the passing of our fallen brother, Dimebag Darrell of Pantera, who was tragically murdered while performing with his post-Pantera project, Damageplan, in Ohio, by a crazed former Pantera fan. Dime will never, ever be forgotten, in our hearts, our minds and especially our ears.

In other Pantera news, Dime's memory will be kept alive via a wave of new content at the band's official Web site. The powers-that-be at www.pantera.com will be infusing the site with new, artist-driven interviews over the next few months.

Bands that have toured with or have simply been influenced by the mighty Southern metal titans will be contributing their stories about their experience with and love for the band, which will be posted at www.pantera.com, obviously. We're sure plenty of stories about the larger-than-life Dimebag will be shared on the bands official site, so be sure to bookmark it and check it daily over the next few months.
