Well there's this Ecferus album, not the most outre thing on the thread but it's a bit Krallice-y

And it's from a few years ago, but a band called Ecferus released one single EP that isn't the most experimental thing in the world but has one of the finest, lushest wall of guitars I've ever heard.

Is the guitarist using a whammy there or do you know if it's something else (customized instrument, tuning, etc)?

You mean for general queasy riff warping? I think so.

Yep, just bought that on first listen. Really nice guitar sound and riffs. My partner called it "surf metal", actually.

Annoyingly there are two bands called Witch Trail, both put out albums this year. Both are very good.

Album is pretty nice on first listen. May well buy this. Tracks 3 and 4 sound like they're in 12tet, I think?
The 17edo guitar is interesting. Each division (so each fret) would be about 70.59 cents, I think, meaning P5s would be pretty close to what we're used to, only about 6 cents sharp of 12tet P5s and 4 cents sharp from just P5s. But what happens to thirds seems most interesting: you'd get intervals of about 282.35 cents, 352.94 cents, and 423.53 cents, so either a very flat (18 cents) minor third, almost an exact neutral third (halfway between major and minor), or a very sharp major 3 (by 24 cents, and actually more like 38 compared to a just M3). Ofc, some precision is lost when distorting but distorted microtonal tunings still produce different effects than distorted 12tet. Did Ron Sword make the guitar?
I do wonder about these guitars. With 17edo, I could see how you could play on most of the neck with very precise fingering (and she seems to, although I'm sort of interested to hear what it sounds like past the 17th fret without distortion). With the 24tet guitar, I do wonder what technique you could use to play near the octave or higher, to get your fingers just between the frets. Even Sword seems like he's squeezing when he's halfway there on this instrument: https://youtu.be/RWCwMW48FO4?t=90
Also wonder how tricky it is to ensure the intonation of these things. Probably things to ask the Xenharmonic FB group.

I think I might have actually asked some of this once and got an answer that I don't remember.

is there any reason, in this era of digital audio, why metal guitarists aren't recording 100 guitar tracks on everything

These are mostly rereleases, although that one^ has some self-remix work so I'll def check it out. His next album proper should be along at some point soon.
