Rock albums that sound good on your system?


Often, you put in a rock album into your S$10,000 system and the music, though enjoyable, just sounds harsh, grating, boomy and forward. Aside from several of my Pink Floyd albums, the rest of my rock CDs just sound bad. Are there any good rock recordings out there?

Hi Folks !A few Current Albums to consider that sound wonderful are 1. AIR-10'000 Hertz Legend Some say Prog Rock in disguise.Art Rock may be a better description.From acoustic parts to full blown Electronics with deep bass,Moog etc..Beck makes a couple appearences.Will test your system with more sounds than any recording I've heard.This album is a Masterpiece and the most interesting Album I've heard in a while.2.A close 2nd is Radiohead Amnesiac.Ditto most of above 3.Sigur Ros -Agaetis Byrjun from Iceland.A Beautiful Haunting Album, Mellow but Heavy[An old Hippie term]Guitar played with a violin bow!And the Voices!I first heard all of these on KCRW.com Morning becomes Electic Show.All are archived.Posters Ben Campbell and Marakanetz would probably Love all three as they don't seem to be into commercial crap and are into very engaging music.All 3 are available on vinyl and sound great in both formats.Must have's for Floyd/Art Rock,Prog Rock Fans!Hope you enjoy,from an Old Music Obsessed Guy.My .02 for something NEW !
