Something that would give me some radical heaviness! I was looking at the Fulltone OCD but I'm open to other suggestions! Please and thanks.

In no particular order I recommend one of these Elements, Black Forest, or Fuck Overdrive.

Blackout mantra, if you want a dirt overdrive it's ballsy as all get out. The eq section makes it easy to pair with your amp too.

My two favorite OD's are by Earthquaker Devices: the White Light and the Monarch.

I would also suggest the BAT Black Forest as well as the White Light. More-so the Black Forest.

I'm interested in the DoomiDrive but I havent had the chance to try one out

I think that's pretty heavy-sounding. I'd like to get one for myself one of these days.

If you REALLLLLY want to bring the heaviness, to me the most obvious choice is rocking with our main man Ryan and getting a Dr Scientist The Elements. Brutally heavy, or sparkling and boosty, The Elements does it all.

Fuck OD is also very cool, but a little more limited in scope than the Elements and has its own vibe. Can't go wrong with ILF builders.

Thanks for all the help guys! I called up a few shops today and one of them has a Monarch in stock which I'm going to give a try. But the Black Forest looks incredible. Right up my alley. If I'm not crazy about the Monarch, I'll put the cash down for that.
