Song |
"Revolution Is My Name" is a song by American heavy metal band Pantera. Like the song "Becoming" from 1994's Far Beyond Driven, Dimebag Darrell uses a Digitech Whammy footpedal. The song is in standard D tuning (DGCFAd). It was the first single from the band's final album, Reinventing the Steel. It was also nominated as Best Metal Performance in the 2001 Grammys.
Music video
The music video for the song is a mix of various elements: between performances from the band and live footage, it also contains comical snippets of a sitcom-esque interpretation of the band's childhood, where the musicians are portrayed as small kids (with facial hair included) listening to Led Zeppelin and ZZ Top while jumping on the bed and playing oversized instruments. The video also includes flashes of the band's influences such as Ozzy and KISS.
The song's music video was voted as the 15th Greatest Metal Video of the 21st Century on Headbangers Ball in 2005.
