Pure bedlam

No matter where you stand on that particular aesthetic gesture, for musicians that live comfortably outside convention and willingly incorporate more chaotic sounds into their playing, the Farmers Mill can be a surprisingly powerful musical tool.

Niche

It's reassuring to know that in a boutique effects world obsessed with cloning vintage guitar tones, there are still a few mavericks hoping to bring something different to our ears - Guitarist issue 365
RATED 4/5

Tone Toys

A pedal based on analog technology, marketed as "100 percent electric mud grinder". Offers delicate vintage radio/vinyl dirt to fully crushed and demolished tones. The Farmer's Mill was designed to be transparent to a player's tone. Operates on 9V battery or 9V/100 mA power adapter

Chop You To Pieces

Guitarists looking for that ultimate destructive weapon to add to your arsenal - your dream may have indeed come true with the advent of Farmer's Mill. Developed by Crushsound, the black-and-white beast is a handmade analogue stompbox that sounds like "broken, burning guitar cable" and has the potential to beat the Rowland S. Howard tribute pedal at its own game.

Hot stuff

Many musical things sound best just before they are about to break - old instruments, amps, Madonna. Following the reasoning this handmade analogue pedal sounds like a 'broken, burning guitar cable' offering the random stuttering dropouts you'd hear if your lead was at breaking point and your amp was on fire. But with the bonus that it's adjustable, it will keep working, and your house won't burn down. And, oh, you might sound like Jimi Hendrix.

Forget old fuzzes, screamers and modulation effects.
A mad scientist has caught pure chaos and put it in
a huge white box, just a switch away from your guitar:
you won't come back from visiting farmer's mill.

Perhaps the idea sounds silly on paper, but whether it's Dave Davies slashing a speaker cone with a razorblade or Jack White soloing white knuckle into a heavily gated fuzztone, the history of rock 'n' roll guitar is peppered with moments when a primal racket has been exhilarating and nothing short of vital.
