anselmohammer_90Issue 200 of Metal Hammer complete with free Dimebag Darrell tribute CD – on sale now!

Brace yourselves for a very special, 200th issue of Metal Hammer!! For the first time in five years we spoke with DOWN/former-PANTERA frontman Phil Anselmo. He tells us about the early days, his battles with addiction, his memories of Dimebag and his future plans. And as we celebrate the life Dimebag on the even of the fifth anniversary of his death, ZAKK WYLDE takes us on a sentimental journey through his friendship with the PANTERA guitarist.

As this is the 200th issue of Metal Hammer, we asked you to choose the best Hammer cover ever! From 1987 until now, see which one won! Also, we hang out with Finnish power metallers SONATA ARCTICA, talk to British Brutalists ANNOTATIONS OF AN AUTOPSY and speak to the illusive and enigmatic EMPEROR frontman on another amazing IHSAHN album. AUGUST BURNS RED also explain how they’ve risen to become all things to all men.

We head out on the road with DRAGONFORCE for two days of utter mayhem, ICED EARTH mainman Jon Schaffer tells us the story of his life and BEHEMOTH frontman Nergal gets a hot nun to probe his… mind. Also, we take a look at the recording of CORROSION OF CONFORMITY’S classic ‘Deliverance’ album, run through everything AMON AMARTH have ever released and track the story who inspired a generation of others to drink, drink, drink: TANKARD. FEAR FACTORY get a visit from us in the studio and we get the skinny.

We review albums from ANTHRAX, ROB HALFORD and THEM CROOKED VULTURES and shows with ALICE IN CHAINS, CLUTCH and AMON AMARTH.

Incoming! features AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE, RAISED FIST, THE FALL OF TROY and more. And Subterranea has its Grind At The BBC special as well as interviews with SWALLOW THE SUN, CANNIBAL CORPSE and CTHONIC.

Best of all is our 13 track Dimebag Darrell Tribute Album with every issue! We invited bands to cover their favourite Pantera tracks:

CD is fucking awesome. Zakk, Machine Head, Biohazard and Evile are sticking out more than the others for me, although FFDP aren’t far behind.

Fucking sick album. Seriously impressed with Malefice’s contribution.. Evile’s cover is something else. Hell, I even liked A7X’s cover.. and I really quite dislike them. But you can tell they actually put 110% into it.

You’ll getcha’ pull off this, for sure.

Malefice Cover owns, i hedbanged the fuk out to that bitch

can u only get this mag in the UK or what?

Great tribute to what I believe, personally, is the greatest guitar player of all time. The Biohazard version is amazing, and I was fortunate enough tohear this played live in London. I’d like to see a second disc, and love to here Pantera classics, by the likes of, lets say, Fear Factory, Life of agony, Type O Negative, Prong, White Zombie and any of their long standing touring partners and friends… This is an amazing project and really could be built upon as a way of keeping Dimebags and Pantera’s legacy alive…

Love being a subscriber (you non-subscirbers should consider it), got it on Friday and have listened to it non-stop, it is awesome, Zakk Wylde, Evile and A7X stick out for me, just brilliant, also I got my mystery gift from MH for being a “loyal” subscriber, it was LoG’s New American Gospel, you guys are awesome, keep it metal. \m/

Goddammit I can’t take it any more, I’m sick of this 200th issue crap!!!! Someone at MH must know this isn’t actually their 200th edition and this is just a nice little opportunity to promote the mag?!?! The numbering sequence which lead to the current 200th issue began in April 1994 (Soundgarden cover)… prior to this there was a completely different numbering system… Someone must know that though right?!?

how do i download the nonpoint track

yungadam

can someone rip the cd and up it on rapidshare or somthing
this issue isn’t out where i live yet . i plan
on buying it when it is but i really wanna hear the cd

Looooove Avenged Sevenfold’s version of Walk. <3

JASON CRAIG

This issue is FUKIN A great cd,CHEERZ Hammer.

In Norway… we’ll hopefully get Metal Hamer in the Stores before mas :-S

Jeremy Gurbatow

Holy shit, im doing a report on dean guitars. I have to get this idk it they have it in america but ill just have to buy it online and have it shiped i cannot miss this cause who would i be to miss all this

The album is fucking killer, but I have to say, the production on Mouth For War is awful! Get it remastered by whoever did Fucking Hostile and it’d be infinitely better. I was at the Scala gig and saw Biohazard tear through it live, so know how brutal they can make it sound but the recorded version does it no justice.

Lancelot Payne

Great Issue METAL HAMMER :)
Loving the CD

KEEP IT METAL
\m/^__^\m/

I FUCKING LOVE THE CD!!!!

stephen

battery, hallowed be thy name, and even negative creep, MFH are shitting out flawless covers down a conveyor belt.

the Malefice track is definitely my favourite…but a top job by all the bands, a fitting tribute to Dimebag.

Im not a fan othe most of the covers, EVILE’s one stands out as by far the best its incredibly tight and haunting, machine head, zakk wylde, biohazard, chimaira and kiuas did good job however 5FDP cover is shit, malefice very average sames as the rest im afraid Eviles cover tho makes it all up. Good issue tho and If get from Tesco get a gama bomb CD which is amazing.

Great CD, i liked every cover, its a great tribute to Dime.

Carl Loves Malefice

mrmetal666…..

Have you actually read the interview in this issue with Phil?

Tom Saunders

My issue cover was covered with glue, so was the back of my CD. Can’t wash it off :( fucking horrible
Other than that great issue :) anyone else have the same problem and how have you got rid of the glue, because sponging with hot water didn’t work

is this for sale in the U.S.?
can I order just this issue online?

mrmetal666

Carl yeah Ive read the interview and the facts remain the things P,A said back then made a deranged loon kill a genuine gentleman, plus other members of the public, and that’s why I wont give P,A the time of day whats done is done he can say what he likes now he cant bring Dime back can he. The day Vinnie forgives him then so will I.

rikkemonica
