Bill Ely And The Catnips rule.

USAISAMONSTER also rule.

and so do gatechien.

As for other ones

Active Minds - guitarist plays through a bass amp and a guitar amp with a selctor foot pedal so he can play through both or either at a time, meaning he can have different arrangements. He also sings and they sound like a full 4 piece band when playing live.

The Dresden Dolls - drums and a keyboard/electric piano. Fucking ace.

would Pig Destroyer count? as in, same as the YYYs, cos JR Hayes only does vocals. Not the new line-up however, cos they now have a 3rd member doing samples and noise.

Only just noticed this thread. Bill Ely & the Catnips then:

You asked about instrument thickening methods for two piece act. I use an Epiphone Dot run through a Big Muff with a particular leaning towards bassy tone. That is my solution. It sounds sick, imo. Also, Hugh plays his drums really really hard.

Examples of this cruel sound can be heard here: www.myspace.com/billelythecatnips

Incidentally, our new album is out as of today. Three Coils Around the Rat, available from One Up. Plus we're playing the Tunnels tonight.

Enough plugging. Thanks.
