Such a killer tone an that album.
Any idea what they played on that? Phil told me it was Mesas, but it sounds almost processed, and I remember them touring with rack gear back then.

Thrash and extreme? Or thrash and/or extreme?

Devin townsend has had some stuff that was extreme and awesome. If this is what you were after then I'll do some more leg work.

If we're talking thrash and extreme. Venom or mercyful fate. Leaning towards venom. Which if memory serves marshall jcm800. And I'll go with
.. black metal as the album. Semi lo fi, very extreme for the time and still holds its own.

Honestly, I think they were boosting JCM 800's with Metal Zones. That was the Florida death metal crazy back then.
 
Won't say best but a couple that come to mind:



Randall V2?



Recto?



That chapel record was actually a kemper profile of my personal Herbert I owned at the time. Loaded with 4 sovtek 6550s and 2 E34L’s, pretty insane sounding.
 
Carcass - Heartwork (5150 blended with 30th anni Marshall or SL-X, Marshall Guv'nor pedal and Valvestate micro-stack)
Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness/Blessed Are The Sick (Marshall 900, Rat pedal, Rane eq)
Exodus - Tempo of The Damned (Modded Marshall?)
Anthrax/SOD - Among The Living/SEOD (Marshall 2210, TC Electronic Line Booster+Line Driver & Distortion)
