Sir, so hindi pwede pang metal to?
pwede bro.
the highblood is a hi-gain pedal and all hi-gain pedals eventually find their way to metal.
however, there are many kinds of metal, and here are a few examples:
1.) early dimebag metal = its basically a metal zone type distortion with focused bass and a sh*tload of treble.
2.) slayer metal = this is where the highblood belongs. mid heavy and is the type youd either hate or love. i use to hate this sound as a teenager, but now i appreciate its ability to cut thru cymbals and bass.
3.) metallica metal = this is the scooped mid setting. a bit like dimebag in the later years with emphasis on treble and bass.
4.) death/extreme metal = while most death metal bands dont use this type of gain, it is the type of gain that is usually appreciated by fans of extreme metal. it is characterized by very scooped mids and extremely high bass levels and moderately high treble/presence. i love the sound of this kind of gain but its just hard to make it cut thru certain bass tones. some ppl describe this as muddy (but not muddy in a big muff sorta way).
