Downtuned guitars changed rock and metal forever! Here’s what I discuss:
* Black Sabbath and Tony Iommi’s finger accident
* How bands like Helmet, Soundgarden and Morbid Angel played a role
* When Korn popularized 7-string guitars
* Meshuggah, 8-string guitars and the djent revolution (Misha Mansoor, Periphery, etc)
