Ah yes, but you're the musical equivalent of a psychopath....
Mind Alice Cooper has been doing a mix of Another Brick in the Wall and My Generation on his last few tours, so I guesstimate that you're right

Djent, whatever you think of the word, is a new ish one - the idea of using a high gain amp at lower gain and heavy technique for an amazingly heavy tone with plenty of top end.
I think if more people tried unusual pedals, like the newer boss drive, more new sounds would appear. It gets a bad rap because it doesn't sound like a vintage thing, but it's not supposed to - it needs imagination, just like the old ones once did. And someone *will* do it.
I try to get something which is suitable and which doesn't sound like I just plugged a random guitar into a random amp and randomly twiddled the knobs, but I don't obsess about absolutely nailing a tone. Sometimes for example I might prefer a tone I've come up with compared to the recorded version- it's normally in the same ballpark and not radically different, but tweaked slightly.
I think thats the whole point of it . We dont actually want to be mistaken for someone else even when we're standing on their shoulders so we dont really mind too much if things sound a bit different . Where it falls flat on its face is when we are still being left behind by the past .
Some things are just branded into history but make perfect tongue in cheek moments
