Devi Ever God Machine or The Syle/Holowon Umiom.

I guess my new supercollider is pretty heavy but I use it for lower gain muff toans.

I have an Anarchy Audio HM-2 clone which is very cool and my main distortion, a Homebrew Electronics Big D, isn't exactly a slouch in the heavy department either, though from what I heard so far I think the Fuzz Huger and Black Arts Toneworks stuff seems to be about as big, bold and heavy as it gets.
Then again my heaviest pedal might actually be the MI Audio Pollyanna.
I mean, not so long ago on a Sunday afternoon the girl who lives below me came knocking at my door, completely hung over, she said she just had to find out where this heavy noise was coming from and when she heard the Pollyanna she said it was probably the heaviest and nastiest thing she heard in her life. :joy: :!!!:
When I was recording with a friend of mine and I suggested to go direct in with the Pollyanna and that I'd do a bassline for his track with my guitar and it at first he didn't believe me but as soon as I hit a note all that doubt was completely gone, it blew all his plugins and his Juno106 to pieces. :yay: :lol: :thumb:

For heavy distortion, the Elements

For fuzz, definitely the Hair of the Dog.

Speaking of love it or hate it, Stacking my real green muff into a dimed ODB-3 with the blend at 50/50 is fucking crazy.

On its own, my Helios becomes a monster with the boost anywhere past noon.

A Muff...v4 IC, v6 reverse gfx, v7 tall font. One of them is the winner, depending on input source.
Or all of them, stacked in chronological order :animal:

The Cornballer (1.5 Tonebender based) is prob the fuzziest of my fuzzes...with insane gain on tap. That's a whole other flavor of heavy.
Setting the Volume knob above 10o'clock makes it too loud and harsh to play without pain...even when fed by a far east Duo-Sonic clone from the early 80s, that's loaded with low output single coils!

In terms of deadweight, The Resonator is heaviest. :p

Heaviest is Megalith and Magnetar. I don't think anything has beat those out yet. lol

Heaviest pedal combos I've ever tried/heard.

1) Ace Tone FM-2 -> Ram's Head Big Muff
2) Big Box Rat -> Bluebeard
3) Fix'd Deluxe -> Blunderbuss

My Brassmaster clone is the most in your face fuck you NASTIEST pedal

V4 Op Amp Muff is the feedbackiest with the heaviest, longest sustain

Dirge Rat clone/SSStampede is definitely up there for for most low end to a pedal

HM-2 is what Godflesh used so even though I'm using it more like a boost it fucking slays because Godflesh are the heaviest band

I guess I don't define "heavy" in one singular way.... I use it more like a philosophical approach towards life and death.....

Honestly every big muff ive used. New york, hoof, v6 muff, dope priest all of them sound sick with a slightly dirty amp. Then any of the death/heavy/metal zone pedals get so bassy you just wanna riff all day.

My heaviest would be the supercollider, elements, and pharaoh... all of which bring the thunder in their own way.
