Looking to spend around 500-800 ish just looking for a reliable amp 50-100 watts that can do , tragedy , his hero is gone , dystopia sounding stuff for a new project .
 
Something in the 5150 family tree. I played in a d-beat band for years, my rig typically being a 6505+ and Dual Rectifier in stereo. Then I did the HM2 thing for while too, and my amps of choice swapped around often. You can really make about anything work, but a 5150 will do about anything you need in that realm.
 
VTM sounds great with an HM2, but I wouldn't do the HM2 thing for FAR, Tragedy, arena crust, etc. It tends to muddy things up too much.

That's true but most modern HM2 clones have a blend feature now.

Which makes it really easy to dial in for that sound without getting too muddy

ah I havent had any clones. I got a tiny pile of the old ones and just ran two amps, one HM2, and one amp gain as my method to "blend", haha
