hey i need some help, so i got an HM 2 the other day and it has a hint of the tone, but not all the way there. doesnt quite have the full "chainsaw feel", do i need a good tube amp to go with it?
HM-2's are shitty, shitty sounding pedals, I don't even know what happened to mine I had 20 years ago, I think it disappeared when I moved house once, I didn't care. They make crazy noises with a half-flat battery though, like electrical arcing combined with a huge fucked up old muscle car that won't start.
As far as i know was the Canadian band SLAUGHTER which used the HM-2 Pedal for the first time, using that sound on Strappado, before Leif Cuzner/Nihilist...
@Gritz666 When I listen the Slaughter I was like ''Fuck this shit is sounds like SWE DM bands'' and then I realized Swe Dm bands were following Slaughter trend.
@thenameiwantedwasnta hej tittade lite på din kanal, Meshuggah stämmer ett halvt tonsteg ner från en vanlig åttasträngad, och använd fan inte en Metalzone för det. Det vore ren hädelse.
@swedisheinherjer High watts make your sound louder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But there's not really any specific amp you need because the gain comes from the pedal anyways, so a peavey valveking would be pretty great for this type of playing
"Gibson" - Darn, I really hates gibson at the moment. They're living off a historically good name and only that. They had to remove the poll from their home-page because it had too many negative votes making them look bad.
Um, I guess the "Swedish" Meath Metal twist must be what makes the difference in nuance here. I've been playing the guitar for over twenty-five years, and specialize in Death/Black Metal exclusively. Odd, I owned Heavy Metal pedal, and thought it unremarkable, and almost never used it. I also hate Gibson, and will take few guitars seriously as Metal instruments. The best Death Metal sound I can achieve comes from a BC Rich US Mockingbird with active electronics. A coil-splitter is needed,
@LLPinney1969 The mahogany and the raw sound in the old school pickups in Gibson guitars are really nice for it and the flying V's are actually really nicely priced so they're cool.. Actives often sound too sterile for that grinding chainsaw sound which rapes your guts.
But the HM-2 MIJ is really the most important thing here.
No seriously the boss "Metal Zone" was ten times the pedal compared to that piece of crap. But a huge part of the tones most metal heads want don't come from a pedal they come from overdriven tube amp and some sort of 10 to 32 eq adjusted properly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEARN YOUR SHIT BEFORE MAKING POINTLESS VIDEOS OF THINGS PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT ON THEIR OWN!!!!! If a person thinks they got any help from this video they should NOT be trying to play metal of any kind EVER!!!
yeah turn all the levels up on the pedal. if you want more mids or low end, do it from ur amp. and yes use this pedal as a booster for ur amps gain. but dont turn the amp's gain all the way up.
on my Valveking i just needed to put it at 11'o clock, and Valveking's distortion sucks.
@swedisheinherjer There's a stomp pedal on Amplitube 3 called "Metal Distortion 2". Metal Distortion 1 is an emulation of the Metal Zone, while Metal Distortion 2 is an emulation of the Heavy Metal Distortion. I just tried that one and it's a match.
I think it's a misconception that the only way to use this pedal is with the knobs all the way up. First off, you want to set the volume to balance out your clean sound. All the way up is going to be far too loud. Bass, OK yeah all the way up or close to it. The tone control sounds like ASS all the way up, anywhere from 10:00 to 2:00 sounds good though. Listen to Wolverine Blues by Entombed, the tone on that album is a bit scooped like they had the tone control around 11:00 or so. Gain cranked.
@GEETARS3 Yeah I know that. But I don't even think all the Swedish Death Metal bands used the pedal like this. Like I said the tone on Wolverine Blues by Entombed definitely doesn't sound like they have the tone knob cranked.
@vFluX this pedal isn't in stock anymore and you only can only buy it used, so boss wouldn't gain anything by paying him to do this, plus he's saying that the metal zone (the gayest pedal i've ever heard) sucks and that pedal is in stock
@WoWHeroin btw the riff he plays is from the from Entombed-drowned but in this video he plays it at a slower tempo on the record it's faster sounds badass both ways.cheers
@WoWHeroin Small addition: the tune is originally from the Phantasm soundtrack and Entombed used it as the closing for Left Hand Path (the song, not the album). It's a series of old horror movies. Pretty good for that time too.
Daniel knows what he talks about ! had my hm-2 pedal before i heard the first Entombed demo "but life goes on" and got really thrilled when i realized i was not alone to adore the thick sound it delivered !
#1, this guy comes off really arrogant. ONLY Gibson guitars, ONLY HM-2 pedals, ONLY turned all the way to the max. That's the attitude of like a 14 year old.
#2. Anybody else think he sounds just like Skwisgaar Skwigelf? Just a tad maybe?
@JoeGibb he's not arrogant at all, you're just being a pretentious asshole. He's telling you how to get a VERY specific tone--obviously if you want to execute it, you follow his instructions to a T. You're just taking everything he says, accenting it, and using it for your own crappy judgements.
It makes sense that if this pedal is out of production and everyone in the genre is collecting them that they would be scarce. But I thought he said very specifically that they were hard to find because the members of only those two bands he mentioned collected them and had "like twenty or so each". Which didn't make sense. Perhaps I just misheard though.
So does any one here know just how rare they are? or about how many were made before they quit?
Did he seriously say that you can't find that pedal anymore because the members in the band dismember collect them and they have 20 each and that's the reason they are scarce?
It is nothing strange that an old pedal that is not in production is hard to find . If you then add that a not that small group of people (members of Dismember, Entombed and other people playing that kind of death metal sound) collects them heavily makes it even harder, do you understand now?
@IronDreadKnight Why Pat and Rob use MetalZone is still a mysterium for me since thier amps already have better distortion. They don't use pedals in studio so why they use it live is just wierd
I'm just trying to figure out what noise suppressor can handle this, I've tried a lot and most of them suck the tone out or the distortion is too powerful.
where the fuck can i get one of these pedals ? i want one !!!! i'm swedish and i've never heard of any such pedal b4 !! i just found out abt it now recently !!!
@xxxblucoxxx Try Ebay mate or maybe on some metal and punk forums. I just bought 2 so you can still get them. Just recorded with my band and it sounds totally great!
@SuperFightingHelstar Then keep being this way, you can finely live without those papers! Sure, but I guess you could find interesting bands just surfing here on youtube or asking friends around. I mean, i dont think im excessive talking shit of him, it is just that i really hate people who put themselves 3 meters higher than others without a fucking reason! And actually when it is about music opinions theres really no use or reason at all!!!
@SuperFightingHelstar I just think that the heavy metal spirit of the roots got lost through the years... unfortunately... this Daniel, for example, talks on how much he misses the "old days" when metal heads used to trade and share demo tapes, waiting to get one even for months... well i think it is just bullshits once again. At that period people were actually trying to support eachother cause metal was stuff for emarginated people and was an emarginated music. There were plenty of bands
@SuperFightingHelstar different styles ecc. But people used to respect eachother opinions!!! For heaven's sake, actually without right of speaking opinions out, heavy metal would not exist!
You know, it feels like these childish competitions on who has the longer dick and thats not properly mature i can add. When he says: At the gates and Dissection are the only worth Gothenburg bands, the others tried to imitate with dubious results... i mean... so in his words other bands werent supposed
@SuperFightingHelstar to play just to have two bands as total purity and perfection of GTB sound!?!?!?!? I call this musical racism! Everybody has the right to play and if actually these bands he talks shit of managed to sell albums it means they released something people like! once again, then, facts and opinions talk not closed envious minds like his own. Then look at this: artists from great bands (and they would have the right to!) never talk shit about others. Unknown wannabe ones, always!!
@OmegaDarkful People thinking like Daniel is exactly why the genre is not evolving. The evolution of Metal from 1990 to 2010 is much less significant than the evolution from 1980 to 1990. Which is exactly why I do not condemn modern metal bands for trying to take the genre somewhere, even if that somewhere sucks, it's something at least different. And if Daniel and anyone who doesn't like what those modern metal bands do, should take up a guitar and do something, instead of whining.
@SuperFightingHelstar Thats totally correct, i can really say. if i think about metal sound evolution and when it stopped i think at the years 1997/98 when there was that huge explosion of power metal and classic metal. Actually in my opinion it was all orchestrated by magazines and labels and they used people's ignorance to bring that music gender back. Sure it was a great hit for all the nostalgics but didnt really bring anything new! They went cemeteries opening graves of long time dead
@SuperFightingHelstar musicians (look at those Decrepit Manilla Road just to name one band) and chopped off the legs of young ones who were trying to do something new with music. EVERYTIME a new band comes theres some dickhead insulting and throwing shit out. Exactly as you say, they just whine without doing anything good. Writing a book like the one this Daniel wrote is totally pointless. Or better, ANYBODY could do the same! You can write a book about bands you think to be decisive for the
@SuperFightingHelstar metal scene. I can do the same. All guys writing on this page can have their version on whos better than others. In music, as in life, theres never just one truth! When i met him i asked him a question (that actually made me immediately understand who i was dealing with) and you can see as well here his attitude.
Heinz "What do you think of Bathory's Quorthon?"
Daniel "Ah, he was just lucky. He didnt invent anything"
It fel like either i was talking to an annoyed God
@SuperFightingHelstar or to a demented individual who didnt understand anything about music!
Check out some clip or pictures of the band Insision where he plays in or the old Dellamorte! I wonder if he ever managed to end up a gig standing tall playing cause it seems all he can do is falling puking between amplifiers!
The distorted channel! Crank the distortion on the pedal and put it at minimum on the amp, or vice versa. This way sound is very depenping on what amp you use, so try it out on different ones. Some recordings where actually made with a Peavey Bandit 112!
The key is using the pedal as a boost. No wonder people think it's a weak pedal when they put in the clean channel...
@Pannemat Yup, a 1986 MIJ, the volume gives you... more volume. It got an use if u play your valve amp at high volume. This way the tubes are even more push which helps to get a dirtier sound!!!
Anyway, this pedal rules even to play something else thatn death metal. I use it with a TS808 clone and it just gives me a killer Modded Plexi tone!
And.. If u want a Morrissound/Terrorizer sound, buy yourselves a Boss Turbo distortion and link it to a Boss' equalizer (can't recall the exact name but it was a grey one), set it in a V shape.
Better with a Jackson/Charvel guitar and a JCM800 Mashall head!!
myspace/fatalist666 Listen to the cover song "Beyond The Unholy Grave". They used the Entombed method, using the HM-2 on the left and right channel, and a DS-1 in the center Channel. It sounds awesome, in my opinion.
This pedal alone isn't enough to replicate the swedish death metal sound. First, you need a guitar with similar specs of the USA GIBSON FLYING V [MAHOGANY body, MAHOGANY neck and ROSEWOOD fingerboard]. Similar pickups [neck: 496R/Bridge: 500T both are "ceramic" ones]. You may also want to consider that a BOSS DS-1 pedal was sometimes used (usually panned at the center), sorrounded by two MH-2 guitars, creating a "wall of sound". The main Sunlight Studios amp was the famous PEAVEY BANDIT 112.

@IAmAbomination The JCM900 is also an option, they have reissued the amp but I'd look for a used one, if you want to be elitist XD

@SuperFightingHelstar I just think that the heavy metal spirit of the roots got lost through the years... unfortunately... this Daniel, for example, talks on how much he misses the "old days" when metal heads used to trade and share demo tapes, waiting to get one even for months... well i think it is just bullshits once again. At that period people were actually trying to support eachother cause metal was stuff for emarginated people and was an emarginated music. There were plenty of bands

@SuperFightingHelstar different styles ecc. But people used to respect eachother opinions!!! For heaven's sake, actually without right of speaking opinions out, heavy metal would not exist!
You know, it feels like these childish competitions on who has the longer dick and thats not properly mature i can add. When he says: At the gates and Dissection are the only worth Gothenburg bands, the others tried to imitate with dubious results... i mean... so in his words other bands werent supposed

@SuperFightingHelstar to play just to have two bands as total purity and perfection of GTB sound!?!?!?!? I call this musical racism! Everybody has the right to play and if actually these bands he talks shit of managed to sell albums it means they released something people like! once again, then, facts and opinions talk not closed envious minds like his own. Then look at this: artists from great bands (and they would have the right to!) never talk shit about others. Unknown wannabe ones, always!!

@OmegaDarkful People thinking like Daniel is exactly why the genre is not evolving. The evolution of Metal from 1990 to 2010 is much less significant than the evolution from 1980 to 1990. Which is exactly why I do not condemn modern metal bands for trying to take the genre somewhere, even if that somewhere sucks, it's something at least different. And if Daniel and anyone who doesn't like what those modern metal bands do, should take up a guitar and do something, instead of whining.

@SuperFightingHelstar Thats totally correct, i can really say. if i think about metal sound evolution and when it stopped i think at the years 1997/98 when there was that huge explosion of power metal and classic metal. Actually in my opinion it was all orchestrated by magazines and labels and they used people's ignorance to bring that music gender back. Sure it was a great hit for all the nostalgics but didnt really bring anything new! They went cemeteries opening graves of long time dead

@SuperFightingHelstar musicians (look at those Decrepit Manilla Road just to name one band) and chopped off the legs of young ones who were trying to do something new with music. EVERYTIME a new band comes theres some dickhead insulting and throwing shit out. Exactly as you say, they just whine without doing anything good. Writing a book like the one this Daniel wrote is totally pointless. Or better, ANYBODY could do the same! You can write a book about bands you think to be decisive for the

@SuperFightingHelstar metal scene. I can do the same. All guys writing on this page can have their version on whos better than others. In music, as in life, theres never just one truth! When i met him i asked him a question (that actually made me immediately understand who i was dealing with) and you can see as well here his attitude.
Heinz "What do you think of Bathory's Quorthon?"
Daniel "Ah, he was just lucky. He didnt invent anything"

@SuperFightingHelstar or to a demented individual who didnt understand anything about music!
Check out some clip or pictures of the band Insision where he plays in or the old Dellamorte! I wonder if he ever managed to end up a gig standing tall playing cause it seems all he can do is falling puking between amplifiers!

Does anyone know if this goes through the clean or distorted channel on the amp?? there seem to be conflicting opinions!
Crabmeat 1 year ago
@Crabmeat
clean channel ;-)
wezzel 1 year ago
@Crabmeat
The distorted channel! Crank the distortion on the pedal and put it at minimum on the amp, or vice versa. This way sound is very depenping on what amp you use, so try it out on different ones. Some recordings where actually made with a Peavey Bandit 112!
The key is using the pedal as a boost. No wonder people think it's a weak pedal when they put in the clean channel...

Bought one! (jan. 2011).Sounds amazing,better than I expected.
For those that say "Nooo,the volume (the left knob) shouldn't go all out,right?",
yes: the volume too goes to 11.All 4 knobs!
Pannemat 1 year ago 18
@Pannemat Which is pretty useless when u play at low volume, u just add volume and that does not change ur tone.
metalhead76250 11 months ago
@metalhead76250 Oo yes it does. Do you have the pedal yourself?
Pannemat 11 months ago
@Pannemat Yup, a 1986 MIJ, the volume gives you... more volume. It got an use if u play your valve amp at high volume. This way the tubes are even more push which helps to get a dirtier sound!!!
Anyway, this pedal rules even to play something else thatn death metal. I use it with a TS808 clone and it just gives me a killer Modded Plexi tone!

And.. If u want a Morrissound/Terrorizer sound, buy yourselves a Boss Turbo distortion and link it to a Boss' equalizer (can't recall the exact name but it was a grey one), set it in a V shape.
Better with a Jackson/Charvel guitar and a JCM800 Mashall head!!

myspace/fatalist666 Listen to the cover song "Beyond The Unholy Grave". They used the Entombed method, using the HM-2 on the left and right channel, and a DS-1 in the center Channel. It sounds awesome, in my opinion.

This pedal alone isn't enough to replicate the swedish death metal sound. First, you need a guitar with similar specs of the USA GIBSON FLYING V [MAHOGANY body, MAHOGANY neck and ROSEWOOD fingerboard]. Similar pickups [neck: 496R/Bridge: 500T both are "ceramic" ones]. You may also want to consider that a BOSS DS-1 pedal was sometimes used (usually panned at the center), sorrounded by two MH-2 guitars, creating a "wall of sound". The main Sunlight Studios amp was the famous PEAVEY BANDIT 112.
