OVERDRIVE- EAGLETONE Molotov Metal Distortion ...surprisingly good & cheap too!

 EAGLETONE MOLOTOV METAL DISTORTION 
$40.00 USD

A French company with it seems have 14 pedals and a few amps.
They have been around for years yet have almost no videos??? 
A basic layout with a 3 way EQ, volume and gain. A boost rounds out the controls that is switchable.
In order to find any pedals that I have not checked out keeps getting harder and harder. One of the best ways is to go to from country to country and translate the local equivalent of E-Bay and check out bricks and mortar stores and look for local brands.  Overtime I got to know small makers all over the globe even in tiny countries like Estonia who will give me a heads up on other makers.
This is not the first company in France that seems to do zip to sell worldwide. Others in Italy are the same. Oddly many have been around forever.
CONCLUSION
This pedal has more saturation than pretty much any Metal pedal I've heard. It lacks any serious lows and has weak attack so it ain't gonna 'chug'. lol On the other hand it could be useful for the Doom,Sludge, Stoner and Drone gendres. It could be great stacked or simply used in parts of a tune that needs a wall of sound effect.

NOTE: this is virtually the only video. It goes through 9 Eagletone pedals.
             so go to 1:10 to hear the Molotov.
