“A primo signal destroyer, featuring an oscillating fuzz that dipped into tremolo territory as well as otherworldly squeals”: Catalinbread’s expanded Antichthon Deluxe might be the chaos unit your 'board has been waiting for

Catalinbread Antichthon Deluxe.

Once a player has got the essentials on their pedalboard they need a wildcard, and wildcards don’t come much wilder than the Catalinbread’s Antichthon Deluxe, a newly expanded version of its Antichthon stompbox, which ostensibly combines fuzz and tremolo in one pedal.

But that is an inadequate description. Somehow, this is one pedal that resists easy categorisation, which is to say that this is one pedal to engage when you need to send your electric guitar tone through the chaos machine.
