Behind The Scenes: The Capharnaüm Sound is built around the tension between chaos and structure.
It delivers a dense, aggressive fuzz that feels alive, unpredictable, and raw — yet somehow manages to stay coherent and musical under your hands.

Sizzly and biting.

At higher settings, Capharnaüm unleashes a wild, chainsaw-like fuzz with an intense sizzle across the top end.
It cuts through a mix with authority, delivering a sharp, aggressive character that keeps every pick attack vivid and urgent.
Despite the fierce energy, the high end never feels thin or sterile — it stays rich and textured.

Heavy and rumbling.

Lower on the spectrum, Capharnaüm summons a massive, bottom-heavy roar.
The low mids growl and bloom with weight, creating a thick, vibrating foundation under chords and riffs.
It captures that sensation of the ground shaking beneath a heavy wall of sound, while still allowing individual notes and strings to stay audible.

Dynamic and organic.

Capharnaüm is highly responsive to playing dynamics and guitar volume.
Play lightly, and it simmers with a gritty, slightly unstable edge.
Dig in harder, and it surges forward with raw saturation, blooming naturally and creating waves of harmonic texture.
The interaction between instability and control gives it a constantly evolving feel — chaotic, but never random.

A controlled storm.

Even at its wildest, Capharnaüm never completely loses its shape.
There’s an underlying structure that keeps the chaos musical, letting you lean into the noise without drowning in it.
It’s a fuzz that feels unpredictable and massive, yet rewarding and playable — a perfect balance between rebellion and craft.
