PANTERA To Headline Japan’s Loud Park Pageant

Pantera has been introduced as a headliner for the primary Loud Park competition since 2017. Loud Park 2023 will happen on March 25 at Intex Osaka in Osaka and March 26 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Metropolis close to Tokyo.

Pantera made their reside debut on December 2 at Mexico’s Hell & Heaven Steel Fest with the lineup of vocalist Phil Anselmo and bassist Rex Brown alongside Black Label Society guitarist Zakk Wylde and Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante. The band sounded incredible (we have our personal footage proper right here), and will probably work on new materials sooner or later.

“Oh man… who is aware of?” mentioned Benante in a current interview. “Creatively, if we’re simply flowing and getting going, and issues are beginning to be actually good, musically talking, you by no means know what might occur. I’ve bought tons of riffs. However we’re placing the cart earlier than the horse. I just like the positivity there, however I do not understand how individuals would react to that both at this level. I believe first, let’s get on the market and set up that we are able to play. I am at all times open to the longer term.”
