A Vulgar Display Of Pantera, from photographer Joe Giron, was released on September 13th via Lesser Gods. The first-ever authorized visual history of Pantera, which features a foreword from Rex Brown, is a breathtaking, comprehensive look at one of the world’s most legendary metal bands.

Featuring rare and never-before-seen images of Pantera from their humble beginning to their grand finish, this visual tour de force includes contributions and recollections from band members Rex Brown and Vinnie Paul Abbott.

Vital moments of the band on the road, in the studio, at home, behind-the-scenes, and kicking ass on stage are all captured here in vulgar detail. Spanning two decades of metal decadence, this monograph is both a love song to Dimebag Darrell, one of rock’s last great guitar heroes, as well as a testament to Pantera’s enduring legacy.
