BW&BK; recently spoke with REBEL MEETS REBEL drummer Vinnie Paul (ex-PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN) for an upcoming feature in Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles magazine. The following is an excerpt from the interview:

Q: What is one or two of the greatest "Dime" moments on it (Rebel Meets Rebel album), riffs, solos?

A: "I think my favorite solo, and it's probably one of my favorite solos we did ever, is 'Get Outta My Life'. It's really thought out. It just builds and builds, and it's got a great melody to it, and some smokin' stuff in there. And, you know, every time I hear it I get goosebumps, and it just makes me so proud of him. I know it was one of his favorite leads to, so it's about time people got to hear it."

As previously reported, Vinnie recently told Launch that a touring version of Rebel Meets Rebel, the country-metal project featuring his late brother and guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott, ex-Pantera bassist Rex Brown and "outlaw" country singer David Allan Coe, could be a reality: "If the record does pretty good and it seems like there's some interest there, I think maybe me and Rex and David will probably try to find us a guitar player that would be appropriate and maybe do, you know, a month's worth of dates or something, 'cause it would be fun to get up there and play, you know, those songs live."

Rebel Meets Rebel's self-titled album was recorded over a four-year period before Abbott was slain on December 8th, 2004 by a disturbed gunman.

The Rebel Meets Rebel album will be released on May 2nd through Paul's newly launched label, Big Vin Records. A tribute DVD to Abbott, called Dimevision, will also come out that day.

The first single from Rebel Meets Rebel's album is 'Get Outta My Life'.
