Heavy guitar sounds in standard tuning?

[cobhc]

Nope all Devin stuff is Open C, or Open G except for Detox which is Drop D.

 

[CAlexanderParra]

Mors Principium Est "The Unborn" & "Liberation = Termination" are the best example I can think of in E standard.

 

[Fox Mulder]

I don't know if that would go along with your tastes, but try listening to Judas Priest's Angel of Retribution album.

 

[RaDiKaL]

Sylosis!

+1!

And as mentioned Gojira are in D standard

 

[pifos_2]

SHAME for no one mentioning Sylosis.

only on the album though

No, there's more. AAA (AAA tuning), Possessions (drop E) etc.

Dillinger Escape Plan and Envy.

 

[Chryst Krispies]

only on the album though

What is it live?

I forgot about AAA and I didn't realize that Possessions was in Drop E.

 

[beyond dead]

heaps of dead www.myspace.com/heapsofdead brootal slam / death metal I recorded their ep for them. all standard tuning

 

[Fox Mulder]

I'm tracking an osdm band right now. Standard E:Shedevil:

 

[Rex Rocker]

Lamb of God don't tune far from E standard.

I used to be a Drop D guy myself up until I discovered Drop C. I've tuned as low as A. I liked it on guitar, but on bass it was mud-city.

Also want to know... Doesn't make sense to me that they would have their singer transpose all the clean singing parts to a different key live vs studio...?

 

[AdamWathan]

Sylosis live Oct/08:


Standard tuning, just like the album...

 

[evancontinent]

winds of plague !!

 

[ahjteam]

Iron Maiden

 

[Kadmium]

Evergrey's In Search of Truth is probably the heaviest record I can think of for E standard.

SHAME for no one mentioning Sylosis.

I was gonna say the new Sylosis album.


Beyond that, And Justice For All is heavy, and Pantera's 'Slaughtered' (ok, it's a quarter tone flat) is fucking brutal for E.

 

[Torniojaws]

Evergrey's In Search of Truth is probably the heaviest record I can think of for E standard.

Watching the Skies is with drop-C#. Misled and Dark Waters are in D.
