I'm looking for some suggestions on a good pedal to cover modern gain stuff that can also overlap into some 80s. My cover band just picked up a new singer and drummer, and we are dramatically changing our setlist from being classic rock focused. Our singer prefers modern stuff and some 80s, bands she cites are Paramore, Fall out boy, and bon jovi to name a few. Our drummer is stuck in 1990-93 and loves STP, Alice in Chains stuff, and all that good stuff.
I currently have a bunch of distortion pedals, GAS is a real problem, but none of them really cover that heavy stuff. The closest thing I have is the Mad professor #1, which I can get a great VH tone out of, but that is about it. I also have a Rat, but usually only use it for recording because its the big box model and takes up a massive piece of real estate on my pedalboard.
Pedals I was looking at so far were the suhr riot, Wampler Triple Wreck, and Mesa Throttle Box.
