(Metal Hammer) Hellyeah's Chad Gray says Pantera "can never do a reunion." The supergroup frontman and former Mudvayne vocalist calls out fans for seemingly forgetting that drummer Vinnie Paul watched his bandmate brother Dimebag Darrell "get tragically murdered in front of him."
He tells Revolver Mag: "Tragically, even if Vinnie wanted to, Pantera can never do a reunion. You can't do a reunion without a member of a band. I think that people forget the emotional aspect of this.
Vinnie watched his brother get tragically murdered in front of him, and what's on their mind? They want to see a Pantera reunion. I'm not trying to call people out as ***holes, but people are kind of ***holes. They forget that he had to live this."
Gray also insists there are "many reasons" why Mudvayne no longer exist - and explains that Hellyeah's latest album Undeniable is inspired by their frustration at continued reunion discussions over their former bands. Read more here.
