| 10 | * BackToBackBadasses: The guitar duo of Brad Gillis and Jeff Watson are the musical embodiment of this. |

| 14 | * LeadBassist: Jack Blades is a Type B mixed with Type C |
| 15 | * LoudnessWar: Averted at least on their first albums, which have an unquestionably wide dynamic range. Paired with SubduedSection for maximum effect. |
