Drop tunings are for wussies. Standard tunings are for real men.

Nothing wrong with a bit of down tuning, but the roots explain it all. E ftw

Drop B? Wow dude, that's insane... What kind of strings will you be using to drop as low as that?

And as makemetalmusic said: Standard tunings are the way to go.

drop 4 wussies?!

90% bands i listen are drop c or lower... see no reason why is that bad.. it only gives more powerfull and heavyer sound.
Stoner rock/metal, sludge, drone,doom = all dropped

dont play guitar (drum player)but strings my band guys uses i think are 12´ or 13´

u can here some of our demo shit on www.myspace.com/killedafox

e: sry for O/T

y i know crowbar is drop b... maybe machinehead is also

Psycroptic bust out some pretty kick ass riffs in drop D tuning.
