In this video we're shooting out 8 of the most killer one-knob fuzz pedals on the market. For this demo we’re using a voodoo labs pedal power 2 plus isolated power supply with everything wired up atop a Purple Tolex Does It Doom Doomboard. The first six pedals in the chain are variations on the classic fuzz face based colorsound one-knob fuzz, with these last two being an octave distortion and an octave fuzz. We’re running everything into a ’69 Laney LBO 60, 60W supergroup set clean.

One Knob To Rule Them All! Which one did you think sounded best? Drop your thoughts in the comments below!
tbh they all sounded the same
btw is it me or does the destroyer have two knobs ?
I don’t know about the sounds, but the light on that Cthulhu would definitely summon The Great Old One
I was routing for the zero fret and EQD but honestly the Massif was undeniably the heaviest doomiest one here.
Kevy Does great summary, Kevy!
Does It Doom? Just goes to show how many great choices there are on the market now a days. I’d say almost all them are a great choice for anyone’s rig. I’m fond of the Erupter from EarthQuaker. Love the artwork on that one as well. Plus seeing as how the founder of that pedal company lives not too far from my hometown I gotta represent. They make incredible pedals!
The Destroyer, Fuzzlord, and the Massif.
Nothing can beat Blackarts Toneworks stuff for me, Destroyer all the way.
I need to get one rght now.
Great sounding pedal.
i had a special edtion black Destroyer...way loud..got to met my local police with this pedal
I love my pharaoh and raw heart from black arts
love my Black Forest. Fantastic pedal.
The Erupter sounds amazing! I actually just bought one after hearing this demo. Thanks!!
Awesome!
That destroyer is evil.. Great video, as always!
That Destroyer sounds great on any setting, I'm impressed! Thanks for the video
Great pedal for sure
Choose your destroyer!
Thank you so much for including us in this mix, you’re amazing bud. Keep it heavy and sleazy
Thanks, Eric. Love that Four Horsemen!
Does It Doom? Got another toy for you that’s about done
Also thank you everyone for your kind words on the Massif, so glad y’all dig it!
Always exciting!
I dig the ones with a bit more mids to push them through in a mix like the fuzzlord an cathulu and that orange one was probably my favorite. It's very precise but still massive. The first was way to mid scouped at would literally disappear in a heavy mix in drop tunings without some extra boost or eq.
I'm certainly biased since I have a Void Master, but I have to say it and the Erupter brought the tone today. I like their level of presence with the low tuned guitar without turning harsh. Just to throw it out there, the Void Master also sounds massive using E standard tuning. It's a really great pedal and Jason is a cool dude. He knows circuit design too because this thing is super quiet for the amount of gain it has
They all sounded good to me, but the void master had a nice "clarity" to it when compared to the others.
Love the Void Master for sure.
I have the Voidmaster and the Four horsemen Massif by Frost Giant, they are both amazing and similar, yet have a slightly different sound to them. The Four horsemen has a more guttural sounding, grindier fuzz characteristic. The Voidmaster has a bit more clarity like you said, and a bit more dry, ripping quality to the fuzz. The Voidmaster also has a lot more volume on tap. Love them both. Fuzzlord, Frost Giant, Black Art, I have pedals from all of them and they all make incredible fuzz machines. Long Live the Pharoah Supreme.
I think the Fuzz lord came out on top for me ! Seems the most articulate to my ears. Best in the bizz.
Great pedal.
I bought the massif right after seeing this. I’ve also always loved the erupter from EQD. I love pretty much everything they make lol.
The Destroyer is my pick. I like how crisp it sounds with the volume rolled off, and how huge it sounds when the swell comes in like a giant wave of sin. The red eye indicators are a nice touch. The Fuzzlord Void Master, the Cthulhu, and the Massif ran a close race for my #2 pick. Excellent demo!
Thanks man! Destroyer getting a lot of love here in the comments.
Rad demo ! The Massif and Void Master kick asses, I’d personally go with the Massif because of the form factor. All of them are amazing tho! I love my Erupter to death haha
Definitely all amazing. Thanks for watching man!
Really dug the void master. Thank you for showing how they clean up with the volume that was super helpful
Yes thing bro. Thanks for watching!
I hope Jason reads this your Void Master is kicking ass bro!
It is!
Fuzzlord has the most definition and harmonic extension to me.
So good!
each pedal sounded absolutely feckin awesome (i want them all); each pedal emphasizes slightly different frequencies either subtly or bluntly to produce their different "tones" thinking that a few of those would be excellent layered track over track but even all of them stacked into a fuzzed up mess of gnarliness was something i could listen to & enjoy... however that would represent a significant finincial outlay will have to search for cheaper alternatives....
All very true!
Great demo man!!!!
Thanks, Jason. Lots of love for that Void Master!
Awesome video! Frost giant was my favorite.
Nice!
Wow epic review all around!!! Erupter sounded just as meaty as I thought it would... Gotta get one!!! But the Destroyer sounds freakin' gargantuan!!!
Thanks man!
I grabbed one of the one off Massifs that Frost Giant offered last week (made to four horsemen specs). I picked it up based on your other demo, and after watching this I’m glad I did. I may have to grab a Void Master at some point as well. I was surprised to hear how different the two sounded.
Gonna be Frank. I see alot of love for fuzzlord here but that void doesnt sound like that pre production I can tell you that where that volume knob sits is BS as no fuzzlord I've ever owned had enough volume. As a matter of fact Blackhawks gandolf doesnt sound like what's depicted here. I'm calling BS.
BS as in what? There is zero post production-no gain adjustments, no compression, no normalization, no EQ adjustment, nothing. All pedals were set to register roughly the same output level on the audio interface, and no amp settings were adjusted in between. Sorry your ears don’t hear what you want them to hear. The Fuzzlord is the loudest on the board (aside from the Oath section of the Destroyer) and has its volume dialed back accordingly. 🤷🏻♂️
@@DoesItDoom there is video editing. It's easy to tell where you cut. Anyone who has owned these knows damn well what I'm talking about. Who do you think designed the massif circuit? I know. And it's not frost giant. Though they are friends. Just sick of this fuzzlord marketing shit. They are overpriced clones with basic bitch artwork. And I can tell you this I know damn well any blackhawk pedal has far more volume output than everyone of those except the BAT. Just save your shit for someone who doesnt have a degree in sound design and production from a well known media institute. Kick rocks Steve.
@@historian3540 - dude, this is just a friendly pedal shootout. there's no reason to attack anyone or get defensive. can't you just enjoy the video for what it is? go flex your audio wizard muscles somewhere else. no need to be a dick.
His Torian there is definitly some jump cutting to remove bad takes of my playing and empty space, but that’s it. Many have seen the full 20min uncut footage on my members site, which was uploaded minutes after I shot this, and I’m sure they can vouch for it sounding the same. Feel free to go check it out yourself!
Hell, buy them all! I have a Void Master and a Mr. Black DoomstickII and they are both crushing! Looks like I gotta get the rest for the collection!🤘🏼
Awesome!
Void master,erupter & destroyer
Mægjįçk Fúùz Cthulhu has the best usability and choppiness for me. Plus that green light is mesmerizing!✨✨✨
💚🦑🦑
Heres how I ranked them
1 Massif
2 Void Master
3 Destroyer
4 Cthulhu.
The Void Master & Massif were a toss up for number one.
👍🏻👍🏻
Agreed
All sound amazing!!! But for some reason I'm diggin the Massif
Great pedal!
I've been pumped for this one Steve. Sick.
Curious to know which you thought sounded best?!
@@DoesItDoom Was not disappointed. Great demo as always.
I want the Massif now but that Destroyer is tough af. HELP!
@@beau-2222 Thanks brother!
@@DoesItDoom Always Mate 💪
Void Master gets it all!!!
🤘🏻🐐
Black Arts has 3 shades of brutal and they all sound great.
🤘🏻🤘🏻
That massif made a good first impression
Agreed!
Cthulhu. It has the high gain and still cleans up cool. Dunwich stuff always rules. Awesome vid.
Great pedal!
Great shootout man! I already have an Erupter which I love, but you just introduced me to the Destroyer and now I absolutely need one. You might be hearing from my wife after the purchase...
Haha!
A toss between the fuzzlord and the BAT. That oath side hits hard.
Seems to be a lot of love for those two for sure.
I just bought the Destroyer today and after watching this video, I can't wait till it gets here!!!
It’s awesome!
The king 👑 🔊
Fantastic dude so over stimulated!
So stoked.
Haha. Thanks brother.
Mind my language...but what a beautiful fucking video for doom/stoner rock.
Thanks for watching!
Well, I think I'm ordering that Blackhawk after this.. It's pleasing to my ears.
Nice!
Beautiful demo... hard to say what is best... some have a good sound
Thanks man!
Voidmaster FTW!!! Massif a close 2nd. Cthulhu 3rd, but still a great damn fuzz!!!
Cthulhu Fuzz rounds out low end best & has a warm vintage sound 🔥
Sonic Warfare, Massif and the Ritual side of Destroyer for me (in that order).
the Gandalf sounded gnarly and gets added points for having the biggest knob
🧙🏻♂️🧙🏻♂️
bro, i love you.
🖤🖤
BlackHawk for me but they all sounded really killer
👍🏻🐐
Unsurprisingly, the Massif and Void Master sound the best to my ears, balancing articulation, versatility, volume and dirt. These are also the favorite two fuzzes in my arsenal currently. Having said that, I'm very surprised by how great the Blackhawk pedal sounds. I don't have an octave fuzz anymore, and this might be a necessary addition to my board! Fantastic review and riffs as always, Steve! 🤘
Really cool option for a one knob octave fuzz. Not sure there is really anything else like it.
Void master killed it. Now I want one 😂
Yes!
Holy Sheeyat. The Black Arts Destroyer was...🤘🤘wow.
Seems to be getting a lot of love!
Awesome. That’s a bad day for my bank account. Missing the Doom Stick but if I had to choose one, the Chtulu Fuzz. Then, The Destroyer , The Void Master and the Massif.
Nice!
Holy shit that M P Cthulhu is fuckin massive and gloriously sick ,although had a slight flashback from the beam of Northern lights spewing from that box.that's a serious contender& oh HellYeah it DOOMS...
Great pedal!
Great video Steve!!! Asking me to pick a favorite here is like asking me to pick which limb I’d like you to cut off, I can’t do it!!! They were all great, that said, I was really digging the Black Arts Destroyer and Jason’s (The Fuzzlord) Void Master. Again, they were all very very cool!!! Great shootout though brother, it’s a great idea!!! Keep them coming!!! 🤘🤘🤘
The Massif is exactly what I want in a fuzz pedal 🍻
So good!
This is a tough one. I think I’ve got to go with the Massif though. I like to run a Rangemaster style pedal into my fuzz, so it being a bit darker actually helps with the overall tone. Thanks for the great vid!
Nice! Massif is killer. Thanks for watching!
Thanks! Im currently playing in a Doom band, but i lacked some good pedals (I was using a RAT clone and a Honeypie Fuzz) but after seeing this video I just went and buy an Erupter. Thanks a lot!!! (i also loved the cthulhu and the Destroyer! but i couldn't find none of those here in Chile, sadly).
Glad you liked the video!!
@@DoesItDoom Just got my Erupter and it sounds awesome!!!!!!!!!! bass loves it too. Its a great pedal for Sludge too.
The destroyer brings the fire
Killer pedal!
As soon as I heard. "Bias" I was like. "That one" and was tempted to just skip the video ahead to confirmation bias. Baddum tsss.
The Destroyer wins by having two buttons. Even if one sucked that's a winner.
The very third one caught me as having a nice sound. Chtulu. Yeah I liked that one for some reason.
🦑🦑
Black Arts Destroyer sounded best to me.
Nice!
I’m a EQD fanboy using the hoof reaper and like the eruptor but also planning to get voidmaster. Hope it comes back in stock. Great demo all these pedals sound really good
I own the massif and the void master. Both fantastic and different enough to have both on your board.
For instance I like the massif at 3 o’clocK and the void master at 11.
Really like them both for sure.
Great Comparison! Liked EQD Erupter, Void Master and Massif the most. My fav one-knob silicon fuzz IRL so far is Emanating Fist Electronics (D.A.M.) Black Dust clone!
But as you said, it's all blue fuzz face variations. You really need to listen to those IRL to hear slight nuances!
3 way tie between the Destroyer, Erupter, and FuzzLord ,would be very happy with any of those 3.. all of them are cool in their own way though !
What IS that LED on the Chtulhu pedal LMAO? That thing turned on and abducted me. That thing turned on and activated the alien spacecraft we all know they're hiding at area 51. That thing blinded me and opened my third eye.
I need it.
They're all great pedals. I like the Blackarts second switch setting best for full volume stuff but I found it didn't clean up as well as the first setting. The Massif and Fuzzlord sounded great overall but were totally different pedals. Massif seems to carry a bit more low end where the Fuzzlord retains a lot of clarity. I don't think I'd be mad at any one of these if they showed up on my front door. Awesome video man!
Great description. Accurate to what I hear as well in a lot of ways.
All at max and a portal finally opens, the final doom test
I'm tempted to buy the Gandalf one just because I'm a huge fan of lotr🤣🤣
Void master and the destroyer were my favorites.
Those two are getting lots of love!
Sweetness. Bring the doom. Fuzzlord and Massif have the tone I'm looking for.
Both great for sure!
Massif took this shootout for me! Love seeing everyone's different tastes in the comments.
Awesome shootout!!
Thanks man!
The Zero Fret Ophidian, Black Arts Toneworks Destroyer, Stomp Under Foot Sonic Warfare. They're all great in their own way, and bring the massive droning wall of buzzsaws. I like how most of them have that overloaded/disintegrating texture too.
..my pick, the whole bottom row..I was terrified just by the looks of that kraken obscura..the sound didn't leave me wanting...
Great video they all sounded gnarly! I'm personally a fan of the Blackhawk amplification Gandalf, it's just so gritty and heavy I love it.
Yes! 🧙🏻♂️🧙🏻♂️
Great demo! It's good to have so many options. There are an infinite number of combinations if we consider guitars, amps, speakers so it's great to have Options. I like the high mids of the Fuzzlord, but I'd love to have more than one so I can use them in different moments: some sounds better for in the face riffs other for a big heavy atmosphere
Nice! Thanks for watching!
=== Round 1 ===
3:31 4 Horsemen Massif
3:50 Fuzzlord Void Master
4:07 Magic Pedals Dunwich Amps Cthulhu
4:26 Sonic Warfare
4:45 Eruptor
5:05 Black Arts Destroyer (right switch)
5:23 Black Arts Destroyer (left switch)
5:40 Black Arts Destroyer (both)
5:58 Ophidian
6:17 Gandalf
i think the BAD with left or both switches is a clear 'winner'
Awesome video thanks man
Glad you liked it man. Thanks for watching.
EQD Erupter for me, followed closely by the Magic Pedals Cthulhu.
Both have a really great crumbly initial attack and bloom, with a good grindy crumbly sustain, and have good articulation, but they don't have too much articulation and too much clarity like the Fuzzlord.
gosh i need all of em
Yes!
I think I have mentioned it before but I fucking love the destroyer
The Fuzzlord, and The Erupter had the most focused sound. They also seemed like they would cut through a mix? Earth Quaker Devices make great sounding Fuzz in general.
It’s actually nice to be able to dial in and shape Fuzz. Great Fuzz sounds can sometimes get lost in a mix. I guess I like to tweak more than I thought? 🙃
Definitely either the Massif or Void Master
Bottom row - first three sound great, top row - first two. I have the destroyer and it does that sound as good as any of the other ones here.
👍🏻🤘🏻
Fuck yes.. Rooting for the Stomp under foot, but I'm excited to see that Blackhawk in action.
Which did you end up liking best??
YES! ALL OF THEM!
🤘🏻🤘🏻
The Destroyer for sure!!
I have built a fuzz basing on BA Ritual fuzz with small mode - a hi pass boost for more clarity...killer...killer...that sustain....
The Ophidian was my favorite. It had a really dark raw tone. All of them were cool though. You probably get what tones you wanted out of any of em i would think
Massif all the way.
First off I love your channel! favorite has to be FuzzLord Void Master the Massif by Frost Giant. Honestly not sure how I feel about Gandalf. I think it sounded better when you dialed back a bit.
Top row, 2nd from left.
Spotty. My fave.
The Zero Fret Ophidian!
It would be cool to see the circuits side by side.
Ophidian and void master 🔥🔥
Both great!!
massif, destroyer, void master....
Great demo guy 👍 I ordered the fredric demon fuzz in the hope that the sound will be the same as the muff fuzz I had in the 80's. I'm looking for the lost sound
So what's your opinion of the Demon fuzz? I'm thinking about getting one too.
@@kallepersson832 I was happy with this item. I think it sounds very good It's also buffered
Man now you gotta do a remake of this video, but include your Fuzzcoven XD
For me, a lot of them are just a little more than I need in terms of filth. I had it narrowed down to my 3 favorites half way through and the last couple riffs settled it. I'm glad that I ended up liking the Void Master the best considering I own it. I think its something with the clarity that I like about it. But if I wanted more dirt, The Massif would be my next choice.
Both great for sure!
I keep coming back to my RAT clone with the LM308 in it personally. I want something that still has some distortion characteristics. These fuzzes all sound broken.
1. Void Master
2. Destroyer
3. Eruptor
Loved them as soon as they kicked in!
All great for sure.
I actually dig the Erupter⚔️
Nice!
Aw man!. The void master, Sonic Warfare and the Destroyer definitely piqued my interest!. I love the Void Master, that Sonic Warfare tone on the chords was filthy yet distinguished and the destroyer is quite versatile. Too many puppies!.
All true!
That void master sounds like it was used on the album itself
Nice.
*Fuzzlord Void Master*
Black Arts Destroyer
then a tie between Erupter and Massif
