Maybe I'm a little confused about the terms "wet" and "dry".
I was discussing with my friend about guitar tones in heavier music and he says he likes his guitars dry because there's no need for reverberation on rhythm guitars in that genre. However I feel like there is a need for that "sheen" on guitars, even in metal music. (I wouldn't add reverb or delay on rhythm guitars, but a impulse will sometimes add room ambiance to a guitar) I understand that every mix is different but what is the general preference in heavy music as far as guitar texture is concerned?
