Cranked mid-gain amps.
Octave fuzz.
Spawn Of Possession's snare sound on Cabinet.
The entire production on Every Time I Die's The Big Dirty.
Drum production with clear, crushing crash cymbals.
Being able to hear the snare wire slap against the drumskin.
Hearing fret/string noise on basses on a metal album (hearing bass in general).
Guitar harmonies.
The sound of a hollowbody into an overdriven amp.
5150s.
FAT FUCKING SLAMZ.
Huge slabs of Recto sound for power chord rawkz.
Deceptively low gain rock tone.
AC30s.

I will add more as they come to me.

An articulate and deep bass
Very different amps mixed together
singing smooth leads... doesn't matter how its achieved
"Clean" clean tone that is perfect... almost an acoustic quality but with a bit of natural compression... neither bright nor warm...
a bagillion acoustics playing at the same time
dirty vocals that don't sound like pigs nor screaming little girls
that slight more dark characteristic to a drop D power chord (the ones with just one finger)
thick low mid emphasis without a lack of treble

That is indeed a good list.

Which reminded me;
12 string electric guitars, fucking awesome.

Well executed vocal harmonies.
Heavily multi-tracked guitars.
OVERDRIVEN MOTHERFUCKING BASS.
Fuzz guitar leads over acoustic guitar rhythm.




I am totally taking note of all these things I am/we are listing and using them when creating my own music.

The sound of a pick scratching the strings when you pick while palm muting.
The sound of playing B followed by A# when you're playing in E (if you've ever listened to anything I ever wrote, you'd know this ).
Slow chuggy riffage though I always fail when I try to write it.
The above, plus tuned really low. Ala Evisceration Plague.
Fucked up weird chords that shouldn't exist.
The sound Randy Blythe makes in Laid to Rest at the end of the chorus (destroy your SEEEEEEEEEEEEELF!)

AH, you just reminded me!
Heavily multi-tracked death metal vocals.
Also, I love the sound of the Morbid Angel cover we did.

Feedback.

This is a good one.

These are good sounds so far.

Spring reverb.
Delay. Delay. Delay. Delay. delay. delay. delay. delay.
Hearing the snares rattling against the bottom head from sheer volume in the room.
The strings scraping against the fretboard of an acoustic whilst a note is being vibrato-ed.
Guitar synths glitching.
Recorded drum kits that sound like you're standing right in front of the kit in the room.
Amps that sound like they're about to die.
Jazz Bass and Telecaster bridge positions.
Strat and Les Paul middle and neck positions.
Vocoders.
909 hits.
Light, airy, breathy sounding female vocalists.
Violas and celli.
Bassoons.
Ring modulation.

String scraping is a good one.
In "To Forgive" by The Pumpkins there's this slight scrape that gives me chills every time I hear it in the intro.

Lots of good ones in your list.

Also;
Billy Corgan's voice.

Whatever is going on in Thirty-Three, that kinda psychedlic swelling slide guitar or whatever it is.

Oh, yeah.
FUCKING SLIDE GUITAR.
Tuned bells and chimes.
Orchestral instruments and arrangements used in an untraditional context.
Harmonic Minor.
Flat 5th chords.
Using the wrong tool for the right job.
"Vintage" tone.
Overdriven tape inputs.

These, by the way, are amazingly fantastic songs.

I'm digging the first song so far.

It's superdepressing. The woodwinds kick in at the end. The other two are somewhat more theatrical and less immediately mopey, but still very good. All three are worth your time.

Superdepressing, indeed.

The sound of me trying to fellate my tiny penis.

I'm sorry, but the answer we were looking for was; "Gnar shredding".

You're quite flexible.

The live sound of a nice tight drum kit.
Nice feedback.
That substantial crisp deep clunk of a new/good quality car door closing.
Footsteps on gravel or snow.

That's all I can think of for now.

LOL I know exactly what youre talking about

Also, the theoretical sound of my rawkz band.

These sounds include;
Audible, overdriven bass.
Fuzz guitars.
Guitar harmonies out the ass (entire triad harmonies in spots).
Big, ringing power chords.
Huge drums-in-a-room sound.
Multi-amp set up.
