    Try Can- Tago Mago, or Kraftwerk - Trans Europe Express, both amazing on headphones. If you're feeling adventurous try Nile -The Black Seeds of Vengeance, damn near shat when I heard that on phones for the first time, you have to turn it way up though \m/

    Pink Floyd ~ Dark Side of the Moon

    Is there any other way to hear the "whisper"?
  • DewieCoxDewieCox Posts: 11,430
    Queen-Night At the Opera
    Led Zeppelin-Physical Graffiti, III
    RHCP-By The Way, Stadium Arcadium
    The Mars Volta-Deloused..., Amputechture
    Pink Floyd-Wish You Were Here
    Tool-Aenima, Lateralus
    Flaming Lips-Soft Bulletin, Yoshimi.....
    Mad Season-Above

    Seems likes some I've seen listed are just good sounding albums and not necessarily "headphone albums".
