Growin up listening to stripes and pumpkins, loved the sound of them.
Also had my interest in teh thrash metulz. So I just liked agressive stuff.
One day I realized you could have agressive sounding fuzz with great toan.
Then I went straight to Devi's site, researched, bought a handpainted US.
Now my board consists of...at least 7 fuzz pedals I believe.

I've listened to that album so many times that I don't even notice the fuzziness anymore. It doesn't sound like fuzz, it just sounds...right.

+1. Most likely it was this intro that made me realize that these were some
different sounds and that I should start paying attention:

It took me quite awhile to figure out what the hell I was doing (and there's still so much to learn in this fuzzy world of ours) but it's all about the journey.
