Looking fwd to the clips.
Im particularily looking to hear it with full gain, full mid scoop, blend somewhere around the middle i guess. Thru a mid heavy amp EQ.
Can it make a bass sound like a mid heavy bass and a death metal guitar?
I'd love to support a canadian with my 1st major effect buy since the POD....

I think when I get some more money I'll buy one of these they sound great but I already have a Messdrive on the way because that sound is more useful to me.
Yeah, I'm just on the insane side of busy right this second. It will calm and samples will be had.
grygrx how heavy does the Attack Goat go, and how good would it be fro creating a wall of sound?
I wouldn't consider it a wall of sound fuzz at all. It's got a very firm voice without much muffling or bleed (compared to some other pedals I've tried). It has a very strong mid/treble that I imagine rips through the mix quite well.
yesterday was happy pedal day for The BM! 
i got a TC Electronic Nova Delay, TC Electronic Nova Reverb, Korg Pitchblack tuner, and the Wounded Paw Attack Goat Bass Fuzz!
and... it's my day off
D), so here are some clips of the Attack Goat:
(clip #1) demonstrates the Attack Goat's subtle side. i hope you don't mind aimless noodling.
(clip #2) takes the Attack Goat through many different settings (long clip...).
(clip #3) demonstrates one of my favorite settings so far.
settings:
clip #1: "tone" 11:00, "drive" 9:00, "blend" off.
clip #2: the tone is at 11:00 for the whole clip.
i start with the "blend" off then play with the "drive" at min, then at mid, then at max. next, the "blend" is at mid, with the "drive" at min, then mid, then max. then the "blend" is set to 3:00 with the same succession of "drive" settings. finally, the "blend" is dimed, and the same "drive" settings are repeated.
the clip ends with some "tone" knob tweaking while the "blend" is dimed. i think the "drive" is all the way up, too.
clip #3: "tone" off, "drive" 3:00, "blend" 9:00.
like grygrx said, it's not really a "wall of sound" fuzz. it's sharper and more present. the "blend" knob makes it a very versatile fuzz, and i don't think it'll get buried in a mix.

OK, well what would be a good wall of sound fuzz? because I plan on using the Messdrive as a medium gain fuzz for solos/intros and such and i need something to create a wall of sound for a couple of songs. Actually could I just mix my ODB-3 and Messdrive to do that?
check up on the SUPERCOLLIDER. it's more "wall of sound"-ish. there's a thread on it which can be accessed by clicking (this).
there are clips on pages 1 and 4... and maybe another page, too. can't remember.
I think my next fuzz might be the Supercollider after listening to the sound clips its exactly what I need to kick in when I want a massive wall of well defined fuzz sound
SUPERCOLLIDER does rock!
while the Attack Goat doesn't really do the "wall of sound," it gets HUGE in its own caprine way.

The problem is I want this one and the Supercollider and as I said earlier I just ordered a Messdrive and I already have an ODB-3 but it just sucks too much and I need my notes to be discernible through this wall of sound
Hehe, i totally sympathize
Listening to it thru headphones, I thought the blend what way to transparent, at least for what i would like to have a blended fuzz sound like. The fuzz itself was
, but the bass' sound didnt seem to be really present, even with the blend dimed....
when the "blend" is dimed, it's all fuzz, and it's a very sharp, mids-and-highs-heavy fuzz. the best setting i've found for what i think you're talking about is in the last clip ("blend" low [which = more bass], "drive" high, and "tone" low).
and, of course, it sounds quite different live than it does represented by infernets clips.
