Concert by Pantera A.D., a UK tribute act to Pantera, at The Continental in Preston.
Pantera A.D. bring their Pantera tribute act to The Continental on Friday 2 April 2027. It's a full evening of the Texas groove metal that defined a whole era of heavy music, played out in Preston rather than over a record player.
They describe themselves as one of the UK's finest Pantera tribute acts, and the set is built around the original band's legacy. The focus is on the riffs and the drums that made the band famous, with the set drawing on classics like 'Walk' and 'Cowboys From Hell'. It's a tribute to the original line-up — Dimebag Darrell, Vinnie Paul, Phil Anselmo and Rex Brown — so the songs they'll be working through are the ones that built the band's name.
If you know the catalogue, you'll recognise the sound they're after: those heavy, mid-tempo grooves and the sharp, cutting guitar work that set Pantera apart from the thrash and death metal of the time. They've billed the show as bringing that legacy back to life with precision, grit and pure metal energy, and the setlist leans on the songs that most people associate with the band's peak.
