In this ongoing death metal discussion, Austin & Dylan weigh-in on two distinct milestones in extreme music. The buzzsaw-like guitar tones on Entombed's "Left Hand Path'' placed Sweden on the map for its specific approach to the genre that's influence can be felt to this day. Four years later, Carcass polarized their gore obsessed fanbase with the release of their melodic death metal classic "Heartwork". Austin & Dylan also discuss the impact of the Boss HM-2, Earache Records, as well as music recommendations: Voidceremony - Threads of Unknowing Faerie Ring - Weary Traveler Predatory Void - Seven Keys to the Discomfort of Being Portrayal of Guilt - Devil Music For all updates on the show, follow us here: @distortion891 on Facebook, Instagram, & Twitter Tune in LIVE to Vocal Distortion, Mondays at 6PM CST on FM89, WONC.org, & the iHeart Radio app RIFFS ON REPEAT PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37W4wEyb5ELf2y0YYlhRy2?si=8529ae1e880d442c
À la fin des années 1980, alors que le Death Metal, né aux Etats-Unis, s'exporte et se répand en Europe, un pays en particulier développe une esthétique et un son qui lui sont propres. Ce pays, la Suède, va très rapidement devenir l'un des premiers exportateurs de Metal Extrême du monde grâce à cette musique aux contours uniques, conçue à l'aide d'une pièce de matériel devenue mythique : la pédale Boss HM-2. Geoffroy Lagrange, grand amateur du fameux "Buzzsaw Tone" généré par la HM-2, a bien voulu narrer au Secret des Dieux l'histoire incroyable de cette petite boite noire japonaise.

There's heavy music … and then there's End. Formed in 2017, the band is vocalist Brendan Murphy (Counterparts), guitarist Will Putney (Fit for an Autopsy), guitarist Gregory Thomas (formerly of Shai Hulud and Misery Signals), bassist Jay Pepito (Reign Supreme), and drummer Billy Rymer (the Dillinger Escape Plan). The supergroup was created to push the extremes of hardcore music. And, as you'll soon find out in this Rig Rundown, mission accomplished. From day one, guitarists (and producers) Putney and Thomas strived to achieve a signature calling card. They wanted a monstrous, monolithic tone that bulldozed listeners. “It's pretty aggressive [laughs],” concedes Putney. “When we started the band, Greg and I talked about finding an identifiable tone that was us and sticking with it.” And the roots of their sledgehammering sound? “We're very influenced by the Nordic metal of Entombed, and then, later, Rotten Sound, and American delineations Trap Them,” says Thomas. “A lot of those bands rely on the Boss HM-2 or clones to get their grinding distortion. We actually landed on the Way Huge Swollen Pickle fuzz because it's more articulate for our galloping picking and offers more control.” While the band does continue to challenge their consistently crushing sound, the Pickle always satisfies. “Every time we record something, we'll try other pedals in place of the Swollen Pickle, but we always go back to it,” admits Putney. “It's become the one. It's us.” Hours before End's sold-out show at Nashville's the End (appropriate coincidence), PG's Perry Bean popped onstage to explore the (nearly) mirrored, merciless setups of guitarists-turned-producers Putney and Thomas. Thomas details how three octave pedals and two noise gates coexist in his setup. Putney pulls back the curtain on the development of his signature https://www.stltones.com/products/stl-tonality-will-putney-guitar-plug-in (STL Tones Tonality package). And both prove that a bottom-heavy fuzz paired with prominent pitch-shifting into a 5150 is the way to part seas and elicit moshing madness.

Can you believe how good the show has gotten lately. Total semi-pros; honestly not sure how long we can keep this up. Today is yet another high-water mark as we welcome Hank’s old friend and our newest bud Bethany Thomas to the GB team.An accomplished and celebrated theater actress, BT has also put out TWO sick records during lockdown, the solo release “BT/She/Her” and collaboration “Material Flats” with Tawny Newsome. We discuss her history and musical journey, hanging out with Hank at her *baller* 25th birthday party, the mental shift between acting and performing music, less orange/more purple, and calling Ted Leo for guitar solos.Also discussed: Daredevil Pedals’ British Black Belt pedal release and video, Boss HM-2 Waza, Moog Claravox, Softube Saturation Knob, Camel Crusher, Van Morrison and Eric Clapton going peak boomer, goofy Craigslisters, the new Bowie biopic, and other wholly unnecessary films.Put a good Bowie record on and just get to mashin’.
Last episode we had an amazing "Creature Feature" whose roots lay in the heyday of The Bay Area. Seven days later, we return to that hallowed scene. In a roundabout way. The Metallica camp is rocking and rolling with the release of "S&M2", the metallers second collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony providing a fresh spin on some old faves. One of the highlights is the contribution of Symphony bassist Scott Pingel. Mr. Pingel was bestowed the honour of performing the beloved "Anethesia" bass solo. So this proved to be the perfect time to get Mr. Pingel's thoughts on the project. Unbelievable!! But the fun doesn't stop there. In our "Sidestage" interview, we chatted with our old friend Sue Decree as her Digregorio project's new release is about to drop. In our "News, Views, and Tunes", we sign a petition for the Boss HM-2 pedal and call out trump for his ironic use of CCR's "Fortunate Son". Finally we crank some tunage from Johannson and Speckmen, All Pigs Must Die, D.O.A., and Mongrel's Cross. Whew!! Horns Up and Stay Healthy! This Episode is sponsored by Trve Kvlt Coffee.

Following a wholly unwarranted break, the Boys From Below return to their usual haphazard mode of transmission with extra vulgar displays of topical smut and name mispronunciations. This week, we take umbrage with one of Heavy Metal’s most notoriously influential guitar pedals, the Boss HM-2. Since its demonic inception in 1983, this technical omnishambles is almost solely responsible for the nascent sounds of early 90s Swedish Death Metal, while its practically inaudible tone continues to beguile and disgust contemporary metal guitarists to this day. Throughout the episode, Tom endeavours to make snide off-base remarks on the pedal’s existential merits and Matt offers up an unabridged historical timeline before giving the Boss Corporation’s bawdy baby a live test drive. Max out your EQs; it’s the only way you’re going to enjoy this one...

Welcome to Episode 10 of the Signal To Noise Podcast! In this episode I have another guest host, my buddy Sean (the owner of the blue Ibanez RG 550 I wrote about a while back). Sean and I talk about the the 30th anniversary edition TS-9 that Ibanez released this year. We also talk about the gear we are lusting after and some classic effects like the Boss HM-2 Heavy Metal Pedal. In our interview with Nick Catanese, we discuss Nick's newest Paul Reed Smith Signature guitar, his signature Dean Markley Strings and Black Label's upcoming European tour. Guys like Nick are a great thing in the music industry. Nick is a great player, yet still humble and modest about his abilities. It's that kind of attitude that has kept Nick grounded and pouring out great music with Black Label Society year after year. Nick was a delight to talk with and...he is a Star Wars fan! Check out this picture of one of Nick's guitar Picks.
