I had fun with a great destroyer. It can sound organic depending on you set it, but if you place it before certain pedals it can get this ear splitting crackle/hiss that hangs in the air over the splattery fuzz sound. Super evil.

I've said it before, but the fz-2 is a blizzard of rusty nails with the treble and gained maxed. Anything more than a power chord and it starts to scramble, and the feedback you get from that is so disgusting it should be illegal.

at some settings the Frostwave Sonic Alienator is probably the coldest synthy weird fuzz I got///

The name says it all

That's actually not a bad pedal. It's basically just an HM-2 crammed into a box with a chorus and a slapback delay.

Although I will nominate another Boss pedal for this thread: the Metal Core ML-2. It is really nasty and awful sounding. Totally fake and synthetic sounding.

The Squarewave Parade Pollen is pretty noisy and synthetic (in a great washes of white noise way.) Holowon Tin Man is the most brittle thing I have I think. Makes me feel like I'm playing electrified glass strings on my guitar. That thing + a Tele bridge pickup is heavenly. Bugbrand Bugcrusher or AudioWeevil too maybe? Tubeworks Real Tube Overdrive?

Anyone else find the whole Rectifier Mesa sound really cold?
funny enough the Mesa V twin pedal is warm Ass all day....
but the amps from my experience is all nickelnback shiny vomit....
One proud moment for me was at a battle of the bands I played. The house amp was a Mesa single rec.
I blew the fucking thing up.....like, smoke was coming out the back of the head after our set.
I mean, yeh, I had the thing dimed, bu so what!

And even though nickelnback :barf:

What was it that David Cross said about Nickelnback?

"Id rather hear the death rattle of my new born child than listen to Nickelnback"

I generally don't think sounding 'synthetic' is a bad thing, it's definitely how I would describe the sound of the MZ-2 but I think it sounds great (hell, David Gilmour used to use one).
On the other hand, the metal core..... *shudder*
