My problem with Far Beyond Driven

Okay, I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but for some reason, I just can't listen to this whole album. I've listened to all of Pantera's albums (well, not really I’m missing the ’80s ones, but you get the idea) I can listen to them all the way through, and the more I do, the more I like the songs, from Cowboys from Hell to Reinventing the Steel. Except for one album: Far Beyond Driven. I can listen to this album from the first song up to I’m Broken, but after that, I just can’t keep listening to it. I’ve given what’s considered Pantera’s best album many chances, but for some reason I still don’t understand, I can’t bring myself to finish listening to it. Mind you, it’s not that I don’t like it; in fact, it has some of my favorite Pantera songs, like I’m Broken or 5 Minutes Alone. It’s just that after I’m Broken, it doesn’t quite win me over, so I switch to another album or another song. That’s my problem with Far Beyond Driven, and I hope you understand or can offer some advice so I can finally enjoy this album, which I know deep down is wonderful.

Is Death Rattle Pantera's most underrated song?

If you can name a song that's even more underrated than Death Rattle, I'll give you a piece of candy.

Help with the Death Rattle solo

I've been learning Pantera's “Death Rattle” lately, and I've got almost the whole song down except for one thing: the solo. How the heck do I play this? If anyone knows how the heck Dimebag did it or where the actual notes for that solo are, I'd really appreciate it.
