Metal muff with the treble boost engaged????

That pedal to me was always that instant lo-fi olde skewl black metal toanz in box, like driving an icepick into your ears.

Get a Washburn or Artec 'Soloist Distortion'. Same pedal either way. The same pedal was re-repackaged as the Dragonfly Black Metal BM-1. Total early black metal toanz, and cheap to boot. The HM2 or death metal just don't get the screechy thinness, and are more death metal or grindcore pedals...

my digitech death metal into my great destroyer sounds pretty rad for this kind of stuff.

Not a big black metal fan, but I've always had good luck with the tactic of [guitar]->[something you shouldn't plug a guitar into]->[all of the knobs all the way up]
Assuming it makes a noise at all, it will probably be at least mildly kvlt.

^ that is an appropriate 666th post, having something remotely to do with Satan. hail.
WeHuntKings, that sounds delicious. I am looking for similar tones. I would like my black metal toan to be not ONLY icepicky treble clash because I am theoretically still the bassist, I need something that is particularly voiced I suppose.
I feel like this search will be just as involving as looking for toneful pedals.

You might look into rack mounted effects processors. Xasthur used some kind of digitech thing to get his guitar sound.

A lot of it is the cheap mics, too.
Also, maybe a shitty bandpass filter to make it sound like it was recorded in a shoebox?

I seriously thought a Metal Zone with slightly lower gain might get you in the right territory. But hmm.. I've got an old Rocktron Rampage that might get into Burzum-ish territory. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMEbXs8gNqE[/youtube] This is a fairly accurate portrayal of the newer model - the old one sounds better though because it is older

*gets on soapbox* rocktron effects are probably the best cheap effects out there, ok bye
