I play alot of melodic black metal and thrashy stuff.
dissection, at the gates, dawn, testament, and gorgoroth type stuff. I need an amp set that will have just the right amount of distortion but clean and clear enough to pick up those hidden chord melodies in my riffage.
any suggestions????

Get a Mesa Boogie MKIV with a Maxon OD808 pedal up front. You won't regret it.

don't listen to that garbage, if you're going for thrash use the MKIV and scoop the mids


Samoth uses an Engl and a Dual Rec, samoth is the shit, go with the Engl


Euroynmous used a Plexi


if you're playing melodic black metal, you're gay anyway so who cares


death to false black metal
