Notes
Album Sales: 1,000,000+
First Release Date: March 1994
Pantera's seventh full length album, originally released in 1994 through EastWest Records America. This is one of their most commercially successful albums, becoming one of the first heavy metal albums to top the charts in the US and Australia.
"Far Beyond Driven" reached Number 1 in the Billboard Top 200 and produced four singles:
"I'm Broken"
"Planet Caravan" (which is a cover of Black Sabbath)
"5 Minutes Alone"
"Becoming"
Its first single, "I'm Broken", earned the band's first Grammy nomination for "Best Metal Performance" in 1995.
The album's original artwork (a drill bit impaling an anus) was banned, so it was re-released with the now familiar skull impaled with a drill bit.

- This doesn't sound bad at all. I do not have any other copies of this on vinyl to compare with, but to my ears, I'm liking it. Mix is pretty nicely balanced from top to bottom. Nothing is drowning anything out. It's crisp and clear. During the solo to "Becoming", the separation between bass and lead is rock solid. The vinyl looks nice. My copy is flat and plays quiet with no surface noise.
- This sounds good enough to me. Came in completely flat and well pressed. No issues. Crank it up a bit though.
At least it does not give me a migraine like the CD. - This sounds AWESOME! I was a little hesitant cuz the price seemed low and I’m glad I didn’t pass it up. This press sounds awesome! It’s mastered at a slightly lower volume than a lot of my other albums, I turned my gain switch up to HIGH from MEDIUM and it is absolutely slamming
- Sounds great to my ears, probably wouldn’t compare to an original but for what it’s worth this will suffice. Could’ve used a bit more dynamics and separation but it’s clear and punchy and thick sounding. Mine doesn’t have any skipping thankfully.
- Edited 7 months agoAbsolute worst piece of shit of a pressing for this I have ever heard. The midrange dominates everything. Dime would not approve and I'm 110% certain Sterling Winfield and Terry Date would throw this in the trash or use it for target practice. It didn't even come with the inner sleeve that has all the album info and lyrics. If you're reading this......avoid this pressing at all cost. Absolute GARBAGE!
referencing Far Beyond Driven (2×12", 45 RPM, Album, Limited Edition, Stereo, Gatefold Sleeve) 7567-92374-1
This is the best I've ever heard this record. Incredible pressing. I love that it's cut at 45. Call me crazy, but I think that gives it a little more room to breathe which this record really benefits from.- My favourite Pantera album! This is an excellent pressing that went beyond my expectations. Very clean, dynamic and zero pops or clicks.
- My copy sounds great to my ears. It looks pretty cool too. Not one of my best sounding albums I have but that’s fine. The quality is great though. Flat and quiet with a nice inner sleeve.
