The band formed by the Abbott brothers in 2003, cut short by tragedy in 2004.
For the band's sound, 'Soul Bleed' and 'Cold Blooded' from that album give you the picture. It's heavy, direct, and unmistakably Dimebag's guitar work.
Damageplan matters because it was the immediate next step for Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul after Pantera dissolved. Their 2004 album 'New Found Power' delivered heavy tracks like 'Soul Bleed' and 'Blunt Force Trauma' that carried forward their signature sound. The band's story is inseparable from the tragic shooting that ended it during a show in Columbus that same year.
Damageplan formed in 2003 with the Abbott brothers and vocalist Pat Lachman. They released 'New Found Power' in 2004 and were touring those songs when Darrell was killed on stage. The band disbanded immediately after, with Vinnie Paul eventually forming Hellyeah.
