You gotta look beyond the mainstream... the mainstream'll drown you, you know? There's always a pulse in the underground that I love. And the pulse in the underground is what keeps heavy metal alive. Phil Anselmo alivedrowngotta Change image and share on social
I'm a bad pessimist. I don't think about how successful any record I've ever done is going to do before it came out. Phil Anselmo badhavepessimist Change image and share on social
Pantera revolutionized the sound and the approach to heavy metal. It's been regurgitated. Once you up the production on a product and not just the playing but the actual production, then it's going to up the ante. Phil Anselmo actualanteapproach share on social

I guess I've never been introduced properly to Pink Floyd. I know they're great, don't get me wrong. Excellent, excellent musicians; great band; awesome harmony; great song writers; I just don't know anything besides, I guess, the popular songs on the radio.

I love to play guitar. I've been writing my own songs on the axe since I was nine years old. I suck at leads. Phil Anselmo axeguitarhave Change image and share on social
I love the Beatles, and when I was very young, I had young parents, so Led Zeppelin and Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix and the Beatles constantly were big influences on my life. Phil Anselmo beatlesbigconstantly Change image and share on social
The success that Pantera had, I could have never, ever forecasted or predicted, and I always felt a responsibility to try to pay even a bit of it forward. Phil Anselmo bitefeltforecast Change image and share on social
Tastes are varied, man, so much in this music world. Look, I adore the bands that I adore. On the flipside, as much as you love a 100 different genres of bands, there are another 100 I can easily say I dislike, too. Phil Anselmo adorebanddislike share on social
To me, I'm for a band whose forefront is the music. Phil Anselmo bandforefrontmusic Change image and share on social
