"Revolution Is My Name" led the charge for Reinventing the Steel, the 2000 album that turned out to be Pantera's last, and the four players on it share the words and the music: Phil Anselmo singing, Dimebag Darrell on guitar, Rex Brown on bass and Vinnie Paul on drums. Dimebag and Vinnie produced it themselves, with Sterling Winfield co-producing and engineering alongside Vinnie.
It earned the band a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance in 2001, though Deftones' "Elite" took the prize, and Metal Edge readers voted it their Song of the Year in 2000. Jim Van Bebber's video cuts between the band live and a sitcom spoof of their childhoods, with the members played by small kids, facial hair and all, bouncing on the bed to Led Zeppelin and ZZ Top and bashing away on outsized instruments.
