    Definitely Tool's Lateralus...many many subtleties that you can really only hear on headphones.

    Also... forgot my 'album of the moment':

    Dax Riggs - We Sing of Only Blood or Love

    EVERYONE should by this album and listen to it on headphones IMO, his voice is hypnotic... very Bowie-esque :D

    Actually, listen to anything connected to Dax Riggs on headphones. Acidbath, Deadboy and The Elephantmen, Agents of Oblivion, his solo stuff... his voice is simply stunning.

    Oh dear! Everything sounds better on headphones! You can pick out different sounds and instruments you wouldn't usually hear.
