Difference between a distortion pedal and an overdrive pedal?

This is actually a hard question for me; I know for a fact that I can't name 5 albums that have "grown" on me. I'm sure it's to my own detriment, but if I don't like an album after a few listens, I rarely give it a chance to "grow" on me...I move on to something else. There's just so much music out there to listen to, and so little time to listen to it, I don't give an album a lot of chances to grow on me if it doesn't click after a few listens.

Here are a few, though, that eventually became favorites even though I didn't like them that much initially. "Undertow" - Tool. Weird, dark, and hard to get into.

If Tool hadn't come out with vastly superior later albums that made me fall in love with the band, I probably wouldn't have ever gone back and given Undertow an extended audition. "Blackwater Park" - Opeth. I was really turned off by Akerfeldt's death metal cookie monster vocals, but I stayed with it long enough to learn to tolerate them, and I'm glad I did because the album is a masterpiece in spite of the death growl vocals, which I will never actually like, only tolerate.

"Oceanic" - Isis. Similar to the Opeth vocal thing, but on a lesser scale. This one wasn't as hard, because the vocals aren't really that extreme, and the music is so good the vocals really don't detract from it.

BA1: On Undertow: Flood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cNR2Td2... On Blackwater Park: Bleak https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhPqMudh... On Oceanic: From Sinking (AWESOME track) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NT0QL-x... BA2: I'll assume that you mean bands that formed after 2010? Royal Blood, I guess. BA3: Today I was listening to "The Book of Souls" by Iron Maiden.

I'm still evaluating it, but so far I'll give it an 8. It's got all of the elements that made me love Maiden...it sounds like Maiden from the very first note, and it's some of their best songwriting in years. Maybe going all the way back to Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, in order to find an album this good.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
