BEST 7 STRING HEAVY RHYTHM CHUG!

[FortePenance]

Fear Factory's album in general and JP's tone on Six Degrees.

 

[Mattayus]

Meshuggah's tone on ObZen, the actual track, not just the album, is fucking crushing. Like... mind-blowingly crushing. It's a bit squeezed and compressed but it works really well cos they're down so low. Other than that, i think Acle's tone from Tesseract is pretty damn sexy

Recorded on 8 strings, and this is the "BEST 7 STRING HEAVY RHYTHM CHUG" thread

My vote goes to Devin Townsend, his sevens always sound amazing.

 

[MerlinTKD]

It's not 7, but I'm always amazed at Paul's tone on Cynic

On 7's... hard to say... all the one's mentioned are awesome... but I think I'd have to give it to Bulb!

 

[DevourTheDamned]

the first rythm in Poison Godmachine by Nevermore fuckiing owns my ballsack

 

[Uber Mega]

Mr Petrucci!

 

[kmanick]

lately I've been really diggin the tone on Train of Thought.
the Downtuned C and the 7 string stuff.
Circus Maximus also has some great ton on their latest "Osolate" not as heavy as osme of th eother stuff listed here but it sounds great nonetheless.

Not a seven string. 6 string tuned to E flat

That goes for the whole album except Dreaming Neon Black.

at least 6 people have said iced earth so i think i can get away with that

 

[ilyti]

7s: Petrucci, ToT. But I am waiting for Chris Broderick to blow us all away.
6s: another mention of Iced Earth doesn't hurt. Especially the later years.

 

[Mattayus]

Woops! I meant to quote this bit instead haha

My favourite 7-string tones have to be:

Jeff Loomis: Dead Heart in a Dead World and Enemies of Reality (which was one of the reasons I got my Triple Rectifier)
John Petrucci: Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (another reason to get a Recto)
Nergal(from Behemoth):Zos Kia Cultus (Dual Recto)
Dino Cazares: Obsolete (a modded Marshall 800)
Meshuggah: DEI (Dual Recto)

Unearth- Oncoming Storm

best overall: James Hetfield on Disposeable heroes

[XeoFLCL]

I'd prolly have to say Devin Townsend. Surprised not many have mentioned him soo far... But, other than that, Fear Factory during Demanufacture and Obsolete. Oh, and Unearth's The Oncoming Storm.

 

[sakeido]

I'd have to say The Ocean have had wicked rhythm guitar tone on their latest couple.. Aeolian and Precambrian.

 

[soldierkahn]

FF - Self Bias Resistor.

'nuff said....

 

[Stealthdjentstic]

Nevermore hands down, oh and the new necrophagist album is using 7ns so it should have ear pwning tone.

 

[Dudley]

The 7 string songs on Organic Hallucinosis by Decapitated have a pretty crushing tone, as does the latest Aeon album.

Other than those my choices are the mandatory Meshuggah ones (DEI and Chaosphere)

 

[bulletbass man]

The original enemies of reality album was awful. But the remix is simply awesome.

Andy Sneaps one of my favorites producers.

The guitar tone on Clayman by In Flames is killer.

As for 7s Nevermore has some pretty sweet stuff. But my favorite is probably petrucci or earlier meshuggah.

7 string, Periphery - Icarus Lives, super compressed, but I love how chunky and round it sounds.

6 string, Mnemic - Mindsaver - Awesome.
