Zakk Wylde discussed the prospect of new music from Pantera‘s reunited lineup, which still includes surviving members Philip Anselmo (vocals), Rex Brown (bass), Wylde (guitar), and Charlie Benante (drums), in a recent interview with Meltdown of Detroit’s WRIF radio station, as per Blabbermouth. The guitarist gave this response when asked if there had been any consideration of working on new songs with Pantera.
Everyone’s always asking about something like that, but I always [compare it] almost kind of like if Eric Clapton was playing with Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, and if there was leftover material Jimi wrote that he didn’t record properly or whatever, and Eric is gonna play guitar on it and sing it. If it was this unfinished ‘Purple Haze’ song he had, or ‘Hey Joe’ or ‘The Wind Cries Mary’ or ‘Little Wing’ or something — he just recorded it on a tape recorder, so the song’s all there; it’s just that he didn’t record it. So I think there was thoughts of that, if there was leftover things and then we’ll just record ’em properly. But that’s all up to Philip and Rex. Me and Charlie are just there to support ’em in whatever the fellows wanna do.
