The DS1 is just as bad if not actually worse than the metal zone. At least people don't pretend the metal zone doesn't sound like poop. I've played every popular DS1 mod too, and just never got what the big deal was. They're just so synthetic and scooped. Once you get past OD territory you're talking can o' bees all day if you wanna be heard in a mix. Kurt used them because he actually wanted to have terrible tone, so, he gets a pass.

Well the metal zone is the actual worst so I don’t really see a problem here
Both very true, but the Metal Zone is grey or gunmetal or something. This is the colorway of an HM-2, not an MT-2.
I definitely don’t agree with either of you though, but I will say I’ve heard some DS-1s used to great effect over the years.
