Episode 17: Pantera’s Phil Anselmo & Rex Brown plus Blackened Whiskey’s Rob Dietrich & Rabbit Hole’s Kaveh Zamanian

The week of November 22, 2023 on The Metallica Report… Inspired by Metallica’s love of covering other artists, Steffan and Renée open things up by musing on tracks they’d like to hear the band tackle. Phil Anselmo and Rex Brown of M72 special guests Pantera chat about playing for Metallica’s fans - the ones who already know and love them and those who are in for a fun surprise. They also touch on what being on stage feels like now compared to the early days, the vibe that Charlie Benante and Zakk Wylde bring to the band, and, of course, what Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul would think of this chapter of Pantera. And finally, our hosts check in on Blackened Whiskey's latest collaboration in the Masters of Whiskey series with friend of the pod, Blackened’s Rob Dietrich, and Rabbit Hole’s Kaveh Zamanian. The two Master Distillers discuss their shared passion for thinking outside the box, then Steff and Renée go in for a taste, making their own Harvest Fire cocktails. Don’t worry… they share the recipe, so you can play along at home! The Metallica Report - your official, weekly guide for all things Metallica, straight from the source. New episode every Wednesday.
