Re: Best High Gain distortion pedals
The Zoom Tri-metal is also a nice choice if you are looking for a straight up heavy and cutting high gain distortion tone. The Radial Hot British and Mi Crunch Box if you are looking for a more marshall flavored gain tone. I"m actually curious if anybody has tried the mesa V-twin or the distortus maximus....

Re: Best High Gain distortion pedals
I prefer the CB only because I favor Marshall tones. It does have a little more gain than the TZ, but the TZ still has enough gain to be called a distortion, it just happens to do overdrive really well too. The TZ is more flexible where the CB is voiced to be high gain Marshall all the way.
Cheers,

i had a tube zone and i will flat out say skip it, it's not right for what you want neither is the Crunch Box. they both rock for what they are but i wouldn't for a second consider either one for what you want. the CB does good 80s metal and rock and marshall-esq tones and the TZ is pretty good as a distortion but much better as an OD in front of a pushed amp neither IMO is right for you.
i'm not a big fan of distortion from a pedal but if i had to do it it would be...
