Best muff(clone) for death/doom?

The Musket would be my choice. I've owned a lot of Muffs and it's the only one that I still have.

For the tone you described, have you considered a distortion instead? Something rat based? Or for pure awesomeness the Brimstone XD-1? Its a little spendy and large, but you get a really versatile pedal that can do a lot of different things and do them very well.
 
Don't forget the Eau Claire Thunder. I thought it was much heavier and more flexible than the TFR. The TFR does the muff sound brilliantly, but doesn't offer much more in terms of flexibility. The ECT covers a lot of ground and can get amazingly loud.
