In death metal they dont groan. Maybe your thinking of korn.
Anyway, there has to be some heavy stuff in this world to headbang to. I mean, now metallica are crap and other great bands like megadeth arent around now, death metal is the only great think to headbang to. Thats what its for. Its not really for sitting down and relaxing too. I dont like all this cannibal corpse and mortician stuff that much but i really like bands such as death and Children of bodom.
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.
