Review - :
Where {^The Great Southern Trendkill} experimented with slower, moodier pieces, {^Reinventing the Steel} finds {$Pantera} sticking to the pulverizing basics of their sound, with the first downtempo, non-distorted guitar part appearing on the next to last track, {&"It Makes Them Disappear,"} and vanishing about 15 seconds into the song. In the tradition of the group's best albums, {^Reinventing the Steel} is a non-stop assault on the senses, offering no respite from the intensity until the album has stopped playing. Yet somehow, it comes off as a cut below their best albums; perhaps it's that the band's sound lacks the sense of freshness that sparked {^Cowboys from Hell}, {^Vulgar Display of Power}, and {^Far Beyond Driven}, or perhaps it's simply good in a very predictable way (contrary to its title). Yet even if {$Pantera} is firmly entrenched in a signature sound, it's a distinctive, highly effective signature sound that most of the band's fans don't want to hear changed; plus, {$Dimebag Darrell} is still one of the most inventive guitar players in heavy metal. The bottom line is that the way you feel about {^Reinventing the Steel} will likely depend on whether you object to more of the same; if not, then the lean focus of its attack -- the most concise, actually, since {^Vulgar Display} -- will make it more than worthwhile. [A bonus disc version was also released.] ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
