Pantera's unique "groove" style came to fruition with their sixth studio album, titled ''[[Vulgar Display of Power]]'', recorded in 1991 and released on February 25, 1992. On this album, the power metal falsetto vocals were replaced with a hardcore-influenced shouted delivery and heavier guitar sound, which firmly cemented the band's popularity among mainstream and underground fans alike. Two other singles from the album became two of Pantera's most notable ballads: "[[This Love (Pantera song)|This Love]]", a haunting piece about lust and abuse, and "[[Hollow (Pantera song)|Hollow]]", somewhat reminiscent of "Cemetery Gates" from the previous album. The band would play the song "Domination" (from ''Cowboys from Hell'') leading into the ending of "Hollow" (what is roughly the last 2:30 of the album version), forming a medley referred to as "Dom/Hollow", as can be heard on the band's 1997 live album ''[[Official Live: 101 Proof]]''. Singles from ''Vulgar Display of Power'' also received significant airplay on radio as did the companion music videos on [[MTV]]. "[[Walk (Pantera song)|Walk]]" became one of the band's more popular songs, and it appeared on the [[UK Singles Chart]], peaking at the No.&nbsp;35 position. The album itself entered the American charts at No.&nbsp;44.<ref name="200chart"/> Pantera went on tour again, visiting Japan for the first time in July 1992 and later performing at the "[[Monsters of Rock#1992 2|Monsters of Rock]]" festival co-headlined by [[Iron Maiden]] and [[Black Sabbath]] in Italy. It was around this time that Darrell Abbott dropped the nickname "Diamond Darrell" and assumed "[[Dimebag Darrell]]", and [[Rex Brown]] dropped the pseudonym "Rex Rocker".

Pantera released their seventh studio album, titled ''[[Far Beyond Driven]]'', on March 22, 1994, which debuted at No. 1 in both United States<ref name="200chart"/> and Australian album charts. The album's first single, "[[I'm Broken]]", earned the band's first [[Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance|Grammy nomination for "Best Metal Performance"]] in [[Grammy Awards of 1995|1995]]. "[[Planet Caravan]]", a Black Sabbath cover which appeared on ''Far Beyond Driven'', was the band's first charting single in the U.S. as it peaked at No.&nbsp;21 on the [[Mainstream Rock (chart)|Mainstream Rock Chart]]. The album saw Pantera continue its groove metal approach, while taking an even more extreme direction with its musical style. The album's original artwork (a drill bit impaling an anus) was banned, so it was re-released with the familiar skull impaled with a drill bit. A limited edition was released with a slip-cover case. Also, a boxed set called ''Driven Down Under Tour '94 Souvenir Collection'' was released in Australia and New Zealand to coincide with the tours there. It featured ''Far Beyond Driven'' (with its original banned artwork) with a bonus thirteenth track, "The Badge" (a [[Poison Idea]] cover), the five-track ''Alive and Hostile'' EP, and the Japanese collector's edition ''[[Walk (Pantera EPs)|Walk]]'' EP, all presented in a special cardboard box with an eight-page color biography.

Pantera began touring again, starting in South America, along with being accepted into another "[[Monsters of Rock#1994|Monsters of Rock]]" billing. In late June, Anselmo was charged with assault for attacking a security guard after he prevented fans from getting on stage. Anselmo was released on a $5,000 bail the next day.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://docs.newsbank.com/g/GooglePM/BN/lib00142,0EAF97EAAE9DA721.html | title=Darien Lake Concert Frays Nerves Again Band's Singer Charged With Assault |newspaper=[[Buffalo News]] | date=June 29, 1994 | access-date = April 6, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=http://docs.newsbank.com/g/GooglePM/AD/lib00241,0EB47798D28863CB.html | title=N.O. native, Pantera singer, arrested in guard's assault |newspaper=[[The Advocate (Baton Rouge)|The Advocate]] | date=October 26, 1994 | access-date = April 6, 2008}}</ref> The trial was delayed three times.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://docs.newsbank.com/g/GooglePM/BN/lib00142,0EAF9825A7209AA9.html | title=Rock Singer Assault Case Adjourned Third Time |newspaper=[[Buffalo News]] | date=October 26, 1994 | access-date = April 6, 2008}}</ref> In May 1995, he apologized in court and pleaded guilty to attempted assault and was ordered to undergo 100 hours of [[community service]].<ref>{{cite news | url=http://docs.newsbank.com/g/GooglePM/SLTB/lib00826,1010DE6F85D7B491.html | title=The Scuttlebutt |newspaper=[[Salt Lake Tribune]] | date=May 12, 1995 | access-date = April 6, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=http://docs.newsbank.com/g/GooglePM/GF/lib00128,0EB6EA90E5CEB00C.html | title=Pantera Singer Changes his Tune |publisher=[[Grand Forks Herald]] | date=April 21, 1995 | access-date = April 6, 2008}}</ref> Pantera continued their tour of the United Kingdom in 1994 and eventually ended it in North America where the band was supported by [[Sepultura]] and [[Prong (band)|Prong]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://pantera.com/tourhistory/ | title=Tour Dates History – Pantera }}</ref>
