Heavy metal was going through a lot of different change as far as production goes. Regarding what made 'Vulgar Display Of Power' so special, Anselmo said, 'The production. And honestly, considering its timing, considering our ages, our mindsets, it was a very important record that… There were struggles, but they were in the long run a footnote, a memory, because the overall product delivered.' When asked about how he views the LP 20 years later, Anselmo said, ' 'Vulgar Display Of Power' is probably… It's up there as one of my favorite freaking PANTERA records. Artisan News recently spoke to former PANTERA and current DOWN frontman Philip Anselmo about the 20th anniversary of PANTERA's classic album, 'Vulgar Display Of Power'.
