AllMusic[1]

Some of Pantera's faster and heavier influences are more apparent on I Am the Night, especially on the title track, "Valhalla" and "Down Below" (which was re-recorded for their next album Power Metal). Guitar solos took on character, hinting at Dimebag Darrell's later style. It was also the last album to feature lead singer Terry Glaze. The band made their second music video for the track "Hot and Heavy".

Personnel

gollark: It has been done.
gollark: If you know of a serialization library which *does* and which emits compact output, please tell me.
gollark: I'm just using a boring old JSON library, okay? I don't see why I'd want to serialize that to tapes.
gollark: It has four functions: `write(tape_drive, data, ignore_out_of_space)`, `write_string(tape_drive, string, ignore_out_of_space)`, `read(tape_drive)`, `read_string(tape_drive)`.
