And just about ever other band out there add a shine chorus and have a great thrash metal sound

there is virtually NO coloration to your tone) to high gain metal stuff, with plenty of great overdrive and rock tones in between.

The Cool Cat Metal, or CM-1, is actually a very very different pedal from most metal pedals.

: Make sure you get the Cool Cat Metal, NOT the Metal II.

but not so heavy that you can do modern metal if running into a clean amp - if that makes any sense

Metal wise this pedal is pretty alright, but punk rock

Musically, it has enough gain to cover almost anything you would want to play accept for something like crappy black metal or some other non-musical noise

tough built (metal), simple, but delivers quality and wide distortion sound, from hard to soft, as you set it

I definitely recommend it for anyone that likes that hard rock/metal sound.

If you love 80`s hard rock or hair metal turn up the distortion anywhere from 3 quarters of the way up to max and you will love this pedal

I can use this and turn up the tone to play a tone filled, dirty Mötley Crüe song, and on the other side, I can turn it down and get a deep rumble and play some Black Sabbath and anywhere in between

Physically, the pedal is a tank, I don't think they can be killed as I let my 16 year old use

I use the orange micro dark as clean as I can get it, and set the volume and shape knobs accordingly
