It could be said that something in metal died with Dimebag, arguably THE greatest metal guitarist alive. Fortunately, with this 'Best Of' album, his spirit is relived, along with every one of Pantera's greatest moments (which I may add are numerous).
This compilation of the band's tracks stretch the whole length of their epic career. Simply put, this album has it all. Opening to the ground shaking riff of Cowboys From Hell, the track list continues through the melodic Cemetary Gates, before approaching tracks from the inspirational album 'Vulgar Display of Power'. These include the incredible Mouth for War, This Love, the violently executed and infamous F''king Hostile, not to mention the chugging guitar line of the instantly recognisable epic, Walk.
Other tracks on the album include 5 Minutes Alone (my personal favourite) as well as I'm Broken, another all-time classic.
The CD also comes with a DVD, containing all the bands music videos.
I would strongly recommend this record to any fan of Dimebag, any fan of Pantera, and any fan of metal. This band have undoubtedly been influential and inspiritational in the world of heavy music, and this collection brings their mighty reign to a superb conclusion, collecting together all the ground-breaking riffs, throat ripping roars and pulsing rhythms and beats that have made this band what they are! May the memory of Dimebag and Pantera live forever with REINVENTING HELL! Buy it now.

Pretty good review however "This compilation of the band's tracks stretch the whole length of their epic career" is incorrect. They had a career way before the Cowboys From Hell era. A section of their career that they tried very hard to hide and is such not inculded on this album because well who wants to be known for their glam rock days. Anyway keep up the good work!!
