VTF can very easily be dialed in for great rhythm sounds, fuzzy and otherwise--but it always gives me the gnome-eye and I twist the knobbies until it screams. Seriously though, the learning curve is steep with this one, but once you've got the feel for it, getting into the normal zone is fast'n'easy--and that zone is broad and deep, as is the middle way where normalcy and chaos are mixed--both of these are more tweakable and productive than most other entire pedals will produce. It's just that the Zone of Alienation on this one opens into a pocket universe--vast areas for noise exploration. And the controls are super-interactive, inviting intuitive twist/flip approaches to sonic satori--but with all those knobs and switches you can definitely plan out your attack on reality and carry it out in cold blood.
But back to the subject at hand--definitively useful for rhythm and chords--muffy power riff toanz, obviously, but with LED diodes selected and gain/bias cooled down, and/or throw in some clean blend to taste, and the very useful pre- and post-gain tone circuits, tons of more standard distortion and overdrive tones are available, in many flavors. Then, start mixing up the diode selectors and skys the limit. Might want to keep your hands off the octave and side chaos magick switches, though, for the rhythms. Also--if you've got one with a starve, that can be a nice way to add alittle bit of sag/sponge character back into the hard gleaming LED stylee clipping...erm, I better stop before the tl/dr police confiscate my keyboard.
