As music fans, it is very likely that at some point we will experience some degree of hearing loss. Be it from blasting music from speakers, or abusing your headphones, some hearing damage is bound to come our way.
So let's embrace it and share some ear drum rupturing albums that are far too good to turn down!



The Mars Volta- De-loused in the Comatorium
You all must get sick and tired my ramblings of this band, but oh well.
What makes this album so volatile to the your hearing is not necessarily the style of music (noisy prog rock with high pitched shrieking); it's the amount of layering that goes into the album. Under the surface of any song, you can find little themes, hidden melodies and rhythms. The louder you turn it up, the more you can hear these hidden motives. The temptation to turn it up overrides common sense, and ear aches occur.


Daughters-Daughters
Daughters uses the layering concept described above, but not to the same degree. However, the music itself is much more abrasive and sometimes even painful to listen to. I can't even listen to the (relatively short) album all the way though, as great as it is.

I know that some of the stuff you guys will post will make my albums look like Sgt Peppers, so have at it!
