Pantera formed over 40 years ago, so they have quite a few albums, which means they also have a lot of songs.So, we decided to conduct an experiment to see which of their songs have never been played live — but focusing only on the era with Philip Anselmo on vocals. Therefore, we’re only tracking their setlists from 1987 on.To establish our findings, we plugged all of Pantera’s songs with Anselmo singing on them into their tour statistics on Setlist.fm. Unsurprisingly, the majority of the songs from albums such as Cowboys From Hell, Vulgar Display of Power and Far Beyond Driven were played during…

How does gravity affect the passage of time? (Image credit: Yuichiro Chino via Getty Images)Einstein’s theory of general relativity upended humanity’s understanding of the universe more than a century ago, and since then, scientists have discovered that the steady march of time is anything but steady.
