Similarity
citedBlended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The Black Arts Toneworks Destroyer V2 combines the Ritual V2 and Oath circuits in a unified dual-mode enclosure, spanning from a controllable high-gain fuzz wall through to a savage, preamp-style annihilator. The Ritual V2 side provides aggressive but manageable high-gain fuzz with extended sustain, while the Oath adds extreme compressed distortion with a more compressed and chaotic high-gain character. Designed for extreme metal, doom, and noise-rock applications where raw sonic aggression is the primary requirement.

The Keeley Loomer is a fuzz and reverb combination pedal inspired by the shoegaze and noise rock tone of bands like My Bloody Valentine, specifically Kevin Shields's combination of heavy fuzz and saturated reverb. The fuzz section delivers dense, harmonically complex fuzz sustain while the reverb section provides lush, saturated reverb decay. The two effects run simultaneously, producing the wall-of-sound quality associated with shoegaze guitar. Named as a tribute to My Bloody Valentine's 1991 album Loveless.
