How often have you seen 6-string sweeps done in a drop tuning? Often or no?

I've personally never seen it done, but then again, i'm not really the most musically informed... but i've made two in two different modes smile One is just the minor (Aeolian I think... it might be Ionian..) and another is built on the 5th degree of the Harmonic Minor scale... they're not bad, just you have to stretch FAR.

Anthem... isn't that the vocalist of Galneryus' old band?
Anyway...
Galneyrus has some pretty epic 6-string sweeps. Especially in their songs Glorious Aggressor, and Silent Revelation.

its not to hard when you know how the scales move as you drop the notes. Well sweeping itself is hard but if you can sweep you can drop sweep.
