Fortin Blade and Tempest: Which is the More Crushing Overdrive?

Today I look at two of the more versatile boost/OD pedals from ‪@FortinAmps‬. The Tempest, developed for modern djenty metal tones, and the Blade, which seems to be its own take on a modern chainsaw style boost pedal. Running through my Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier and mic'ed up with a SM-57, I demo both pedals to see which one has the more brutal tone. Toward the end I compare both pedals to a Boss SD-1, Earthquaker Plumes, and Electric Eye Mudkiller.
