Editorial Review:
For Pantera, rage flows like water from a faucet. Far Beyond Driven vents the band's animosity in a maelstrom of hateful harangues fueled by thunderous drumbeats, piercing guitar noise, and raw-throated vocals. --Jon Wiederhorn

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Best Pantera album ever -- one of the best metal albums
I bought a copy of this album when it first came out in 94. Almost 15 yrs later, it still sounds riveting and fresh. This truly is an uncompromising masterpiece in hardcore heavy metal. The music has enormous amount of aggression, rhythmic energy, power and anger, all wrapped up in a great sound editing/mastering/overall production. The musicianship shown by each member and the band as a whole is utterly tremendous and puts to shame other hardcore metal bands that are less disciplined in execution. ... Read More
Rating: - Pantera's ultimate masterpiece.
Cowboys was good.
Vulgar was better.
Driven takes everything that was great about the last two discs and perfects everything.
Brutal, insane, catchy, memorable, one of the best thrash albums released, EVER!!!.
Dime just destroys on this, the leads scorch, the drums wail, Phil screams like a lunatic, and the bass is, on "Good Friends" impressive and innovative.
Probably my favorite song musically, the little squeaks and squeals that Dime comes up with against that bass line ... Read More
Rating:  - Good, but not Great
The follow up to Pantera's masterpiece, Vulgar Display of Power, this begins with the thrash and groove inspired "Strength Beyond Strength" and after the first three tracks the album seems a bit heavier than its predecessor. The band does a good job of varying tempos throughout, so the album rarely seems to drag on in monotony. Phil Anselmo also tries some new things with his vocals, which have taken on a somewhat more brutal tone. Unlike the higher screams from their earlier albums, and the raspy yell ... Read More
Rating: - Good but not great
The first four songs of this release are classic relentless Pantera. Strength Beyond Strength, 5 Minutes Alone, and Becoming are some of Pantera's best work. If this is true then why do I give it only 3 stars? Probably because after the opening 4 songs, I don't find anything else on this album that memorable, with the exception of their cover of Sabbath's Planet Caravan. I can put in Cowboys From Hell and Vulgar Display and listen all of the way threw over and over, however, midway through this album I grow ... Read More
Rating: - At the top of their game.
I have been a Pantera fan for years and when I bought this it did not leave my cd player for at least a month. I still get this out regularly during my travels and I still get the same feeling I did when I first heard it. The evolution of Pantera is evident here. There couldn't have been a better bridge between the "Vulgar Display" and "Trendkill" records. The only band to ever give me the goose bumppy shivers upon first hearing them other than Pantera is Freaklabel. If you like these guys you will LOVE Freaklabel's ... Read More
