Yep, just like I mentioned in my first post. Blues to rock then to other forms including branching to metal or punk. They share roots, some similarities, but they are different. Just like I can't set my multi-pedal to a metal/hard-rock beat and play slow blues over it, it just doesn't match. In fact I need to change the whole sound of the pedals to get something that really resembles blues sound and able to accent the blues technique while playing (my pref being acoustic simulator there, maybe with a touch of analog chorus). And all much easier to play on a slow blues drum arrangement.
