Tensions began to surface among the band members when Anselmo became addicted to heroin in 1995 he almost died from an overdose in 1996. These tensions resulted in the recording sessions for The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) being held separately. The ongoing tension lasted for another seven years, during which only one studio album, Reinventing the Steel (2000), was recorded. Pantera went on hiatus in 2001 but lingering disputes led to the band breaking up in 2003. The Abbott brothers went on to form Damageplan while Anselmo continued to work on several side projects, including Down, which Brown joined as well. On December 8, 2004, Dimebag Darrell was shot and killed on stage by a mentally unstable fan during a Damageplan concert in Columbus, Ohio. Vinnie Paul went on to form Hellyeah after his brother's death, and died of heart failure in 2018, leaving Brown and Anselmo as the only surviving members of the band's best-known lineup.

In 1982, Hart left the band and Glaze became the group's lead vocalist. Later, Glaze stopped playing rhythm guitar, leaving Darrell as the sole guitarist, doing both lead and rhythm duties. Later that year, Bradford also departed and was replaced by Rex Brown (then known as Rex Rocker) on bass. Pantera became an underground favorite, though its regional tours in this era never took them beyond Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. The band began supporting fellow heavy metal/ glam metal acts such as Stryper, Dokken, and Quiet Riot. Pantera released their first studio album, Metal Magic, in 1983. Metal Magic was released on the band's record label of the same name and produced by the Abbott brothers' father, Jerry Abbott, at Pantego Studios. But First to Eleven kept working.In 1984, Pantera released their second studio album, Projects in the Jungle. Certainly, the live entertainment industry seemed like it was on pause. “Erie giving us a space to get on stage and do what bands do is really incredible.” First To ElevenĬelebrateErie - like so many other events - was put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “These sort of opportunities, Erie likes to see that, like, ‘Oh, I can come watch that.’ But when we say we get a million views, that’s just off in space and doesn’t really feel tangible. “Sometimes it’s hard being a YouTube band trying to explain to people that we have a million followers and we’re working with these other big YouTube channels - not everybody is on YouTube and understands that stuff,” Krysiak said. In fact, just last week First to Eleven played a music festival in Montana with acts such as Jefferson Starship and Don Felder. But it’s not like they’re not already rock stars. On Friday, they’ll be rock stars IRL (that’s Internet lingo for “In real life”).

We always have each other’s back, we vibe with each other, we know what the other is thinking, and it’s been really fun.” Six Year Stretch “Three brothers started the band with Mike Wolfe on drums. “It’s more of a family affair with us,” Andy Brown said. Jason Shaner is taking over on bass, and Jared Cooney plays electric guitar. Now, so many years later, the group has changed and continues to change. Their friend Mike Wolfe joined the group, and their brother, Alex Brown, played bass to complete the group. The band was started more than six years ago by two brothers, Andy and Adam Brown.
