thx for all those amp settings, i saw Kris from darkest hour say his amp settings on his website. he has...... Gain 5 contour 5 treble 5 Bass 5
and he also says he also likes....... Gain 5 contour 5 treble 5 Bass 7-8
and yea the new album will be kick ass cant wait as well.. Kris and mike did say there will be more solos on that album to
and the kind of amp i will be getting soon is the 5150 212 ( maybe in 2 weeks or so ), i already have 2 EMG's 85/81. on a quest to get my sound as close to them as possible

listen to some real metalcore...
besides... c'mon, you listen to death metal
i have this thing, before i listen to someones opinion of "music", i must know what they listen to. i talent isnt necisarrily in how much you blast beat, how deep you growl, and how much muddy and sloppy random tremelo picking you do. i like bands that play real songs.

It seems like pretty much all metalcore bands use 5150s so my advice is to buy a 5150.

Bleeding through, is metalcore.
Atreyu, hopesfall are both pop hardcore ( fashioncore )
sworn enemy, is like power metalcore etc.. throwdown, hatebreed, nj blood
metalcore usually has alot of breakdowns after a speedy riff
hardcore doesnt have breakdowns at least not alot and is more punk influenced.
check out the band , between the buried and me , best fuckin metalcore band till this day!!!

You'll get ignorant replies from ignorant assholes. They're more concerned with 'correct' metal genres than guitar tone- so f%^& 'em.
KSE use H&K Triaxis heads (bit like the Boogie DR's) with a damn good preamp and maybe an outboard Boss to tidy shit up. If you can't afford more than the Boss pedal then try a LINE 6- it has an 'insane' setting, but things get out of control at higher dB.
Screw around with the EQ, you'll find with the right guitar & pickup configuration most sounds are possible. You can achieve the gain using an ML-2 or something similar run through a decent tube amp.
