Whose tone is venerated so much but YOU yourself hate?

I just seem not to understand why a lot like George Lynch's tone.  I mean, yeah, he used the same #38 (or was it #39) SIR modded Marshall SLT for the songs in Dokken's "Under Lock and Key" album as Slash did for Appetite for Destruction.  But there is something about the scooped and ultracompressed tone I do not like.

I also don't understand why there is so much tone-chasing for Lamb Of God's tone (especially from the Ashes of the Wake album) and while they are using those Mesa Mark IVs, they seem to dial out too much mids and use too much gain. 

Well, JMO.

common answer.

Actually, that is due to the very bad recordings.  But I suggest listening to the latest remastered material, as in mixed for 5.1 surround.  You'll find out that the Machine Gun days were orgasmic...
