In posts like this, I'm always tempted to say something like:
STORMIE MUNDAYZ 4 DA BR00TAL MUTHALZ!!!
but that would be ridiculous, unhelpful, and unhumourous :|
In the right guitar, with the right amp, I'd be willing to bet that
even SMs could get really, truly nasty ;)

Actually, I am sure you are right.
I am not a specialist in the brewtulz, but I get my best metal tones from vintage-voiced Strat single-coils and some PAFs, in either case, boosted to high heaven.
It's not like this is the 1970's, where it was hard to find an amp or pedal with enough gain.
