Power Metal is the fourth studio album by heavy metal band Pantera, released in 1988 through Metal Magic Records.
The album showcases a style closer to thrash metal rather than hard rock, the latter of which formed the basis of Pantera's previous three albums; however, traces of glam metal can still be heard. Notably, Phil Anselmo makes his first appearance on vocals (having replaced former vocalist Terry Glaze). Guitarist Dimebag Darrell (then credited as "Diamond Darrell") also performs vocals on "P*S*T*88"
