Diablo* has amazing tone on Eternium album, combined with a badass drummer, good bassist and one of the best metal vocalist ever.

Other tones I like, for example Nightwish* (espec. Once), Metallica live, Opeth, Arch Enemy (espec. Anthems Of Rebellion), Killswitch Engage, Mokoma*, The 69 Eyes* and of course RAMMSTEIN!!


*=Finnish bands

Wow, I haven't heard that album in ages...

i listen to origin for all of their elements, great guitar work, sick bass, AWESOME DRUMS! and really good vocals.

I love Origin, but John is nothing special. Leon from Impaled/Exhumed said he had trouble with Exhumed's stuff. 1 word: Pro-tools.

__________________

yeah jon must have used that pro tools program the THREE TIMES i saw him live and ripping the shit out of every drummer ive ever seen. i saw longstreth with exhumed and he had absolutely no trouble ripping everyones faces off with his incredible playing ability. the only problem he had with exhumed is that everyone else in the band is a total joke, and thier music sucks.

ok back on topic....

origin does have a pretty good tone in III, i like the tone decapitated has in nihility (which kills me, because normally i hate that dry marshally sound) bodom has an insanely good tone, and i like the guit. tone on the newest fetus album (stop at nothing) but i think arch enemy takes the cake for me. the tone on wages of sin ripped me a new fucking elbow.


by the way, everyone should try to see jon touring with dying fetus this winter....its gonna be very good from what i hear.

who here also hates jimmy pages tone, its so thin, argh

It ain't so bad, yet I think Led Zeppelin are fairly overrated.

Decapitated's tone is alright, I think the only stuff I've heard from them is on nihility, I like the wages of sin tone too.

i like the tone of the distortion i can pull from my ibanez and my boss ME-30. but i imagine my amp has to do alot with it too..

it's so punchy and distorted as hell, yet it's really clear. i dunno. i like my tone, hence the reason i use it.

I still get real caught up on the tone from Bloodthirst......and Walk from Vulgar......

i think Electric Wizard have the heavieast sound ever, its so fucking bassy, check it out people

i would use the word "sick" to describe something wrong...but errr..
i like sound of opeth. Its actualy quite attainable, just use less gain, and a muff pedal help a lot, if you use some good eq'ing

yeah, JUDGING by his speech, i dunno, spikyhairz has never said dumb shit.

I'm not so perfect in grammer either, but I don't mindlessy butcher words out of lazyness like some people do.

i do. i dont give a fuck

Spikyhairz's first language isn't English. English is not a very easy language to learn, as it doesn't follow any logical grammar rules due to the fact that it's a bizarre combination of Germanic and Romance languages.

You've butchered a lot of words in your last two posts for somebody who's so quick to criticize. I won't point all of them out as I'm not petty, but you might want to clean up your first language if you want to criticize somebody else's second.

nevermore's tone especially on dreaming neon black and dead heart in a dead world (which i know they use seven strings on).
fear factory - soul of a new machine era (obsolete era was ok too, love the bottom end)
opeth's tone in general

Agreed. A lot of the Dutch folk here have better English than those with English as a first language. It's ridiculous in a way.

Anyway, I think we are all missing the point: Britney Spears had the most uber-brutal tone on her limited-print demo tape, 'The Infernal Darkness Of Our Morbid Times.' A true classic in every sense, this 1992 release put Britney right at the heart of the second wave of Norwegian black metal until she inexplicably decided to 'do an In Flames' and produce bubblegum pop.

This decision didn't go down too well with her fellow kvltsters and a rash of church burnings ensued in protest. A year after the demo's release, Count Grishnackh murdered Euronymous after they entered an argument centred on the reasons why Britney sold out. It was rumoured that Grishnackh favoured Britney's new found direction whereas Euronymous argued that she was tr00, but only in terms of being a cunt.

The rest, as we all know, is history. Now is the time to reflect how this legendary period in extreme music would not have come to fruition without the brutally frostbitten tone of Britney Spears' demo tape.
