And I can always crank the spring reverb on the amp to wash it out further.

Yes washing fuzz in reverb will help you achieve the sound I believe you are aiming for.
sort of a side note but not really! weird kvlt black metal!

It was before I had settled 100% on the exact parts values, so it sounded a tad different, but still heavy!!

So when you guys put reverb before your distortion, what sort of reverb settings are you using ? Long reverbs with a very wet signal, or short and dry? Or long and dry? Or short and wet? Share the knowledge

I've been using my Holy Grail on the Spring setting with the mix at about 2 o'clock, which is kind of dry. If it gets to be too wet of a signal it just sounds like the guitar is floating. With the Rub-A-Dub reverb I'm finding the trails to be a little too long, so I dial 3/4 of the reverb out. So I'd say short trails, decent mix

Cool! Have an RV3 so will play with that tonight. We need to start a black metal thread on here actually!

I like a short reverb with a mid to long wetness if I am going for that cold, obscured, murky but not tooo murky metal toanz. or maybe a long wet reverb pre fuzz and a short dry reverb post!

Yeah, if I'm tracking guitar it's usually verb->fuzz->delay/reverb!!

verb-fuzz- delay-verb and maybe even another dirt after that (if you want to get craaazy). but it wouldn't be ILF without absurd pedlllulllz chains!

Hahaha so essentially a "normal" signal chain in reverse?
