Layering guitar tracks

Okay... I can't honestly see that sounding good, care to post any clips? Two each is understandable... four is the worst possible mix between sadistic, bizarre, overdone, and anti-guitar...

And was the only way to get a 'meaty' tone really panning farther in? I mean, throwing some lighter tracks closer to the middle is one thing, but...

Four mics each for two guitarists, with 'a good bit of compression', at 70% L/R? Holy invadingwherethedrumsshouldbeandthrowingallsortsofphaseyshitfromeightfuckingguitartracksintothemiddlewherethebassandkickalreadygetpissy, Batman!
