Amp suggestions for Zu Omen Def mk2.

Pet Sounds: Most Overrated Album of All Time?
Fascinating bio pic on Wilson a few years back. Paul Giamatti plays his dark mgr overlord ahole guy. They recreate the pet sounds sessions in the film respectfully. For me, the 'masterpiece' that I loathe is trout mask replica. Makes me want to se...
