Metal tone?? Marshall jcm 800 2204 with bogner burnley!

[OriginOfTheSpecies]

palm muting is metal?

Not in itself. Riffs heavily composed of driving, bottom string chugging palm-mutes, especially repeating 8th+ notes vs big ringing chords lean toward metal IMO.

 

[Leonard Neemoil]

thats a guy singing?

...also Rob Halford. One of the best metal vocalist of all time! Don't leave out Budgie either.

I thought it sounded good through some good speakers. Nice crunchy full rhythm sound. I’ve got a 81 2204 with the JJ E34L’s and new F&T capacitors. That thing boosted and a JB loaded les Paul will give metal tone to die for. Serious old school Marshall metal tricks that’s kind of a lost art these days.

 

[Old Punker]

to me its more of a hard rock tone but i liked the arrangement.

^ +1

 

[Old Punker]

I think the singer needs to quit or get some lessons!

The guitar tone is ok.

Still sings way better than me!

uuuu a lot of comment we have here!!! thanks to all!!

Yes, very metal. What's the tuning though?

thanks you so much!! @TheToneDig its on Drop Db!

It sounds like what we called metal in the early 80’s . And the vocals are spot on for the drive of the tune.
Great work @sectado ..
Cheers
Mitch

thanks u so much mitch!!! @Mitchell Pearrow

Thought the singer sounded good personally.

For me too!!! thanks!! @Ufoscorpion

Sounds good - nothing wrong with the singer. Speaking of Sabbath, this reminds me a bit of Iommi's collaboration with Glenn Hughes.
The double kick section and focus on palm mute heavy riffs crosses the line from hard rock to metal IMO

thanksss!!! @OriginOfTheSpecies

It's a good metal tone!

niceee maaan!!! thanks!!! @Solid State

thats a guy singing?

Its a Female Singer!

I probably shouldn’t even respond to this thread,…. but what the he!!. I’m not a Metal fan in any respect, just so you know.

I guess the tone is ok,… considering the purpose. It’s not a tone I would use, but as I said before, I’m not a fan of the music.

Nice to read thaaat!!! thanks!! @scozz

i dont know that i can call that a true metal tone though.
not todays metal. GnR, sabbath, Maiden, even that stuff really isnt metal by todays standards.
its hard rock.

I gotcha and sort of agree, but I call it classic metal, like classic rock. Not sure if I'd change the actual genre of Sabbath from metal to rock. Just label it as classic so peeps know it's older metal for old fucks like me. Lol

What would you consider Soulflys album "Savages"?

 

[DreamerDeceiver]

Soulfly

Max only needed 4 strings on his axe.

 

[Leonard Neemoil]

Soulfly

I wouldn't lump that in with the Savages album but it is close. Sounds Nailbomb-esq along with Soulfly "Savages" album, and obviously, mid 90s Sepultura.

Good shit all around.

 

[Matthews Guitars]

I REALLY don't care for "modern" metal. Only 80s metal is true metal. This newer stuff is something different.

I say that tone fits well into the 80s metal category.

 

[Leonard Neemoil]

I REALLY don't care for "modern" metal. Only 80s metal is true metal. This newer stuff is something different.

What brand of 80s metal are you referring to, Poison/Motley Crue or Megadeth/Overkill?

Either way though, the newer stuff is different.

dont know of it.

 

[Sapient]

Voice is fine. It's dry. It's probably the OP so be nice.

The guitar sound is simply universal between Metal/Hard Rock. Too much for "Rock" though.

Arrangement is nice too, OP.

 

[Leonard Neemoil]

dont know of it.
