  • Zooropa, without a doubt.

    No Code, Darkside, Zeppelin II, and Springsteen's "Nebraska" round out my top 5.
    Seen the Best Rock Band on the Planet a few times here and there.

    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/

    I hear that every time if I'm actually listening to it headphones or not.
