Heavy Death Zone

BAD PEDAL WEEK!!!!!!!
Decided to get a few......lets say troublesome, pedals out of the way early. They definitely aren't great, really difficult to pull a tone, so I totally cheated and used my '85 Son of Boogie (an odd sort of Mesa Mk1 Reissue) the way its clean channel can sort of replace the treble section of any pedal is a little unique to the mark series, something to do with the way the EQ is pre-gain stage so it can act like a front end filter.
A very rushed attempt at "symphonic" black metal, in quotes because keyboard skills lol
Pedals used:
Digitech Death Metal: It doesn't even have a gain control, totally over the top and brittle sounding
Boss Metal Zone: So many people say its not the pedal its how you use it, but if it takes that much work to get a tone its not great
Boss HM2 Heavy Metal Clone: Used more like a drive for some mid gain leads
MXR EchoPlex: Vintage tape style delay, quite lovely actually
Homebuilt 3 Mode Reverb: A nice reverb I built a while ago, really nice modulated verb settings
